Crowd cheering (click)
As the crisis in Boston drew to a close, and the stream of law enforcement vehicles drove away, crowds lined the streets, waving flags and cheering for law enforcement.
Local, state and federal law enforcement did a remarkable job. They found the terrorists who committed a horrible massacre in less than fout days. Law enforcement relied heavily on the public to help them. One of the victims of Monday’s bombing awoke, double amputee, and asked for a pen and let authorities know he could identify who did it.
Meanwhile, all over Boston, the crowds have take to the street, cheering the police, the FBI, the state police, and waving American flags. Unfortunately, some police officers aren’t going to be there to bask in the glory of a job well done. Those poor souls took one for the team. RIP.
This past week I think all of us were Bostonians, at least in our hearts.
And congrats to the Obama Administration Justice Department for coordinating the entire effort.
Friday night on TV was like a show. Almost hard to believe that what was happening, was actually happening for real in an American town. Surreal!
Togetherness is what does it!
It was surreal. I had that surreal feeling for days after 9-11. It took a long time to shake the disbelief. When I did, I became enraged.
I think the Boston Marathon bombing is going to go down in the history books with the DC sniper and MLK slaying etc.
‘Bout time. Servicemen, First-responders, Law Enforcement, and those who dedicate their lives to serving the community, these should be the people we point to as examples to be followed, instead of Kim Kardashian, Snooki, Jay-Z, and Justin Beiber.
