First of all my prayers and thoughts go to the victims of yesterday's bombing of the Boston Marathon. Because of the cowardice of someone, 3 people were killed and over 130 people were injured. I can't imagine how terrible it is for those families of those who died. They went from having a great day to a tragic day in just a few moments. May the dead be buried properly, the injured recover as well as possible and culprits be caught.
Do not underestimate the fight and spirit of the American people and Bostonians. This crime won't be forgotten and the perpetrators will be caught and punished. "On December 16, 1773, after officials in Boston refused to return three shiploads of taxed tea to Britain, a group of colonists boarded the ships and destroyed the tea by throwing it into Boston Harbor." (thanks to wikipedia.org)
The above is a drawing of the Boston Tea Party during the tumultuous early 1770s.
