The Slippery Slope Of Humanity

Tragedy struck the beautiful town of Boston yesterday. Everyone woke up that morning thinking that they were either going to win the marathon that they had been training for or were going to watch they friend or family member win. One particular man believed he was going to turn his girlfriend into his fiance. Another young man of eight years was going to walk the marathon, raising money for charity. Little did they know that yesterday would be the most impacting life of their lives.

About half an hour after the first person crossed the finish line, a bomb exploded in the middle of the crowd. Panic struck the hearts of everyone who heard or saw the bomb go off. However, they only had 15 seconds to think about it before a second bomb exploded further into the crowd. Another two bombs were found, but they failed to explode. No one cared about the actual race. Everyone was too shocked about the fact that people were limbless, faceless and lifeless around them.

The death toll is up to three. There are so many people in hospitals with limbs needing treatment or amputation, faces with parts missing and for some people, brain damage. One person who died was a twenty-two-year-old woman, Crystal, who's boyfriend was running in the marathon. He was going to propose to her after the marathon. The second was an eight-year-old boy, Martin, who was walking for charity. His sister lost her leg in the explosion and his mother is in hospital with brain damage. The third deceased victim has been unnamed. This could be because they haven't contacted the family yet, or the person was too disfigured to identify.

Many more victims are left in hospital with unnatural injuries. No person has been found guilty, but there are a few suspects of the Boston bombings. There is only one question that everyone is asking ...

What is this world coming to?
