Well, my understanding is/was they have someone in custody who is cooperating and is not a suspect.

Re: Explosions at the Boston Marathon
That's really unfortunate.
Thoughts out to all affected by this. This is an incredibly sad event. I have no idea what's going on and will not be jumping to conclusions. I hope that the agencies investigating this get to the bottom of it ASAP.
Seeing some of the stories of people helping their fellow man is the good I take from this. People are more amazing and compassionate than the cynical like myself give them credit for.

Re: Explosions at the Boston Marathon
I'm not sure, but I think its because its implying that being Muslim is not American. For instance, African American or Asian american or european american are acceptable terms because they are different nationalities. I can't imagine anyone calling someone a "Christian-American"
I don't really think I was clear but that's the best I can explain it.

Re: Explosions at the Boston Marathon
I don't think you can offend anyone with a term that isn't really real. Actually it ends up sounding like you're trying to be politically correct.
But 55 is right....unless they get some sort of incredible tips especially with no earlier intel, if that was the case.Comment
