Amazing interactive link about the people who were approaching the finish line last Monday at the Boston Marathon.
If you would like to be up to date on the Boston bombing, watch the first story from last night's 60 Minutes. The other two stories are rather compelling as well.

It really breaks my heart to see the faces of the survivors and learning their side of the story about the bombing. They were just regular people at a marathon until the unexpected happened. I also think it’s amazing how the bombing has impacted our country and is making us more unified –like after 9/11. First the movie theater in Colorado, then the shooting at Clackamas, then the Sandy Hook Elementary School, then the bombing in Boston… and recently the explosion in Texas??? I just can’t believe how many violent acts have been committed in my lifetime and I’m not even an adult yet. My prayers go out to the survivors and the victims of the bombing and all of those crimes committed...
After spending hours researching this whole Boston bombing case, a lot of evidence is just not matching up to me. The more I find, the more it seems to me that the brothers were framed. I also just read an article that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev could be facing the death penalty. First of all, he wasn't given his Miranda rights. Second of all, he wasn't given a fair trial. And third of all, he is an AMERICAN citizen.. I'm just so confused because he SHOULD'VE been read his Miranda rights and he SHOULD'VE been given a trial .... Gosh, now I am just repeating myself ...
Anyway, I am NOT saying that the Tsarnaev brothers are innocent. I am still undecided whether they are guilty or not. I'm just saying that something is just very wrong and that I think the government possibly might have something to do with this.
I really don’t have much of an opinion on Jahar's involvement, because I don’t really even know if he was involved. The most of an opinion that I have is that the he was either framed, or horribly influenced by his older brother. Both are extremely sad scenarios and hope the truth comes out soon enough.
I am just going to wait until Dzhokhar speaks because even if he writes that is not good enough..
Sorry if my comment is really long, Carlisle.. haha.. but the Boston bombing situation really irritates me and I just needed to rant.

Linh,
No one was framed. Obviously the investigation is still on-going and everyone is innocent until proven guilty, however, the evidence appears to be pretty damming against Mr. Tsarnaev.
If the accused survives his wounds, he will receive a criminal trial. Their is no government conspiracy. Not in Newtown, not in 9/11, not in the Boston bombing. None. Zip. Nada. Zero.

Wow, it was so amazing to hear different sides of people's stories and being able to see where they were at during the bombing. It's so sad that even little children had to witness it. Thanks for sharing.

This whole Boston bombing thing in especially heartbreaking to think that someone had the idea to bomb innocent people for no apparent reason. This information though especially hits me because I have family that live in the suburbs of Boston and my younger sister, who is 7 years old, was supposed to be there with my grandma at the time of the bombing. This just puts things in perspective that life can be taken for granted by so many people who never know when it is going to end. Those people should not have had to go through that tragedy and will have to live with that the rest of their lives. Dzhokhar Tsarmaev in my opinion should be punished
