    From what I can tell, fertilizer produces methane, which is highly explosive.

    Probably a coincidence.

    I would comment but I don't think I am in the right mind.

    Is this thread trying to imply that both were connected?

    Also, the polls ,imo, just shows how insensitive people can be...

    Polls are definitely unnecessary.

    I dont really mean to talk negatively about any of this and it is a tragic but do you honestly think iran or north korea might have had something to do with either ?

    I mean theres so many people living in both usa and canada from any of these countries that a simple person from this country was hired to do these things?

    I know no one has been caught or mentioned but...
    Right now both countries are on the verge of threatening or doing as much damage possible to multiple areas.

    Again i live in canada and we let everyone into our country because it is the land of the free. This doesn't mean that everyone here is all good and nothing has or will happen. Im just saying that anyone from those countries could get into here and get what they need to survive or carry alternative motives.

    The usa/canada boarder is extremely tight while the usa/mexican boarder is alot more passive and people sneak over.

    Again no one has been caught.. we don't know the motives... it could be any ole nutjob trying to hurt people.

    Both countries of n korera and iran are on the verge of starting a war.
    Also if korea wanted to do as much damage as possible im sure they would bomb new york if they could and the radiation would spread into the great lakes etc.... poisoning alot of everything.

    This is something that i hope never happens but with morons who carry bombs or even blow up nuclear reactors... things could turn out like chernoble

    Please do. People need to take their heads off the ground a bit and realize the world we live in.

    Realize that the world as a whole is in one of the most peaceful times in history?

    This is only getting coverage because of Boston. There's nothing remarkable about this one outside of it being the same week as Boston. If this had happened last week, only Texans would know about it. That's sensationalism for you.


    Still bad for those involved though.

    It was a big explosion that killed a fair amount of people, it was going to get widespread coverage. It's getting magnified because of the Boston event, but only to sort of further the "America is having a really sh*t week" view over here.

    In the meantime there are probably dozens of people dying to car bombs and whatnot in the Middle East and no one cares about that.

    An Afghan wedding got bombed or some ****.

    Your average 'Merican can't even ******* point to Iraq, Iran or Afghanistan on a map.

    'Uh, isn't it that place below Canada or something? Or was it near Germany?'
