Laws, constitutions, etc, are so pointless.Do we know if the owner passed a background check before getting the bomb, and was the bomb properly registered? It may be time we re-evaluate an assault-bomb ban.
To some it's the ONLY thing ...

President Barack Obama, accompanied by Vice President Joe Biden, and children who
wrote the president about gun violence following last month's shooting at
an elementary school in Newtown, Conn., signs executive orders to reduce gun violence
A federal law-enforcement source confirmed to The Post there are at least 12 dead and nearly 50 injured. Fox News reported that Massachusetts General Hospital was treating 10 people with amputated limbs and all operating rooms were on hold.
Authorities have a identified a suspect, who is currently being guarded in a Boston hospital with shrapnel wounds.
Frankly I'm surprised that this is all that's happened since 9/11. I know that there have been many attempts, but this is the first successful attack in 12 years.
They usually wait for the media to digest the casualties, a couple hours, before claiming responsibility. If it was a terrorist attack they'll likely make themselves known before evening prayer.CNN is saying the Police are saying homemade devices.....but an event to cause harm.
No one has claimed any type of credit for it.....as of yet.
I do, actually.Well if you discount that whole anthrax thing and the DC sniper fiasco.
Good afternoon, MMC.
O.M.G.! Are we safe anywhere? :thumbdown:
Paranoia isn't the answer, either.

Somalia is nice this time of year.
I know! Making assault rifles is just as easy as making bombs!Good afternoon, Bubba. :2wave:
Yeah, signing an executive order ought to handle the problem, even when the law can't! :shock: :shrug:
We were warned about being careful at sporting events, like stadiums full of people to watch football or baseball games, but this? This is too much! :shock:
How about we keep in place previous laws on assault weapons that were effective according to multiple law agencies?Criminals seem to disregard them, which is the point of the Conservatives.
How about we enforce the laws currently in place and NOT placate stupid people who just want "something done" to protect the "children".
That would make sense. The Lone-Wolf terrorist is the biggest threat because they're completely undetectable. They typically are born in the US, are converts to Islam, have no criminal or mental history....but messages about their plans made on obscure social media shortly before the event will be uncovered.Homemade devices would mean their leaning more in the directions of something homegrown. CNN just said one of the Bombs hit the JFK library. Cops talking on CNN now breaking.
