"...a Yellow Ribbon, Instead of a Swastika...part deux"

Of course Pamela Gellar and Jonathan Spencer will immediately cite Islamic terrorists for the Boston Marathon Bombing before any information comes forward.

As much as possible, I'm staying away from people's opinions on this deal. It's a horrendous ordeal and I don't need to relive the aftermath of 9-11. The main thing I don't want to deal with (as much as possible) aside from the media (and from just the basic information) is fucking Facebook posts. I already hate them, anyway, but things like this just evoke the inane type of nonsense that useless time-wasting technology like Facebook produces, which are people's worthless comments/opinions on anything.

All they do is say the things they think are the right things to say within their circle of "friends." It's like when they wait to see what the President says. What do they expect him to say? It's not like he'll say anything controversial or blow this shit off for a round of golf.

Watching the live coverage of the FBI briefing yesterday morning was like that. It's forty people onstage each saying, basically, nothing. They had no new information and they each just said they were sad about what happened, and thanks to the first responders, blah, blah, blah. Not dismissing the importance of this tragedy and the selfless bravery of the first responders (and now I'm doing it), but they're wasting all this time saying obvious things and people are comforted by this. I know if they didn't say these things, they'd get a bunch of backlash.
