Default Pipe Bomb in NY

Guy strapped a bomb to himself, detonated prematurely. He's still alive, shockingly. Injured but alive. Other injuries to others sound minor - they made their way to hospital under their own steam.

I am shaken a bit... My wife and I were right there on Saturday night... Litetally, right there.

How could these people be so f...ed up? What’s the solution? Is there a solution?..

There is no solution.

As long as there are people, some of them are going to find reasons to kill others.

Hopefully this guy gets the book thrown at him.

Stupid coward POS.

Hopefully this piece of garbage messed himself up real good, enough to live the rest of his life in horrible pain rotting away in a prison

I'm not sure what the prison hierarchy is, but I suspect that terrorists are down at the bottom with pedophiles and rapists.

Hope you're doing alright my friend. I can't imagine witnessing something like that.

I almost witnessed a suicide last year, but rather than walk into the mall where the lady shot herself in the middle of the place, I went to nap in my hotel room next door (I was sick and suffering jet lag; although I did think I should go to the mall and pick up presents for family).

If you're shaken, or it's really bothering you it's ok to seek help. There's absolutely nothing wrong with talking to someone.

Feel free to send me a PM and I can try and help direct you.

Just seeing this now, can't believe I didn't hear this earlier. So not only has this guy outed himself as a monster, now he looks like an incompetent moron on top of it. What a complete loser in every way possible

I hope he is in excruciating pain for the rest of his pathetic life. Piece of trash lowlifes have no place in society. What a loser.

The bomb went off today, during rush hour. We weren't there when it happened, thank God! My wife and I went to New York to celebrate our wedding anniversary this past weekend. We stood right there in front of the Port Authority Bus Terminal on Saturday night. Gives one a different perspective on the "you never know" notion...

Glad your safe Yoah

Sometimes the difference in fate is a matter of second or feet.

As for scum like this. five feet of rope, noted just so and pulled to the side.
