Sending thoughts from Australia to Boston

[Dave, Melbourne,Australia]

The Boston attacks have had huge coverage in Australia. Our Prime Minister Julia Gillard made the following speech:

7News - PM Gillard addresses Boston attacks -...

Boston (along with Milan, St Petersburg, Osaka, Tianjin and Thessaloniki) is a sister city of my town, Melbourne.

sending thoughts from Canada too... a cowardly act killing those, oh so young, and changing more lives than we will ever know... Boston folks are wonderful

Such hatred and cowardice...so many lives changed and 3 lost.. So maddening!

[Affair on Touhy Ave.]

We have a yearly marathon here in Chicago. Could of happened here so it looks like next year the city will also have to take precautions as well.

At the same time that I was reading all of the kind words posted on behalf of the people of Boston, it's now being reported on television that they are closing in on the second suspect. Nineteen years old...unbelievable.

He's been apprehended and taken to hospital. So many questions...

[Lisa J]
