I found a nice little article that seems to make some good points about all this stuff that has been happening surrounding the bombing.
It is intended for the conspiracy theorists who think this was a false flagged thing and a number of others who point fingers and blame people of other groups but I think it makes a good point about remaining calm until as many facts as possible can be gathered.
I also know it's part of a blog either way I think the info is pretty good.
P.S. For the fake Facebook page paragraph, they link to a Youtube video of a little boy showing how someone can change content on anything. It is amazing. It's like you're hacking into another person's website. I've tried it and have actually done what the child did.
Democrats use tragedy to score political points - Raise taxes / Bigger Government
A mother cries as she morns her daughters death and all Democrats can think, their first instinct is to use this tragedy for their political agenda of raising taxes and bigger government.
Speaking with MSNBC anchor Thomas Roberts on Tuesday, made the case that the government needs to raise tax rates and generate more federal revenue in order to ensure Massachusetts does not have to pay for the post-Boston Marathon Bombing rebuilding effort.

Unfortunately, both sides have become incredibly adept at it. The Bush Administration used 9/11 to pass the Patriot Act and engage in an unnecessary war, Obama and his ilk do the same for Sandy Hook and Boston. It's a shame, capitalizing on tragedy is almost a knee-jerk reaction for whatever party is in charge. When we elect professional politicians, we get.....professional politicians.

Ayers and the Weather Underground were responsible for 30 bombings aimed at destroying the defense and security infrastructures of the U.S. "I don't regret setting bombs," said Ayers in 2001, "I feel we didn't do enough." Contemplating whether or not he might again use bombs against the U.S. sometime in the future, he wrote: “I can’t imagine entirely dismissing the possibility.”
Yes that is true, Muslims period face discrimination, but most muslims are not white guys, so there is a huge racial component to how they are identified in this nation.
I suppose that depends on the demarcation of who is white and who ain't which seems to exceedingly situational.
