Three dead due to a marathon of a bomb

Martin Richard was a bright, sunny 8-year-old who loved to ride his bike and scored the winning goal for his soccer team in a championship game last year. 29-year-old Krystle Campbell was the vivacious assistant manager of a steakhouse who could instantly smooth over diners' complaints with her smile. They were cheering on the sidelines of the Boston Marathon on Monday when two bombs went off, firing a blizzard of nails, ball bearings, and tiny daggers of shrapnel into the flesh of runners and spectators. The Dorchester boy and the Arlington woman were the first two confirmed dead in the attack, which injured more than 170 people. A third person killed has been identified as a Chinese citizen who attended Boston University as a graduate student. That's three perfectly good lives at an abrupt end because of the senseless and cold-hearted act of at least one bellend who wanted to ruin everyone else's good time. I'm sure North Korea had something to do with this.
