Right-wingers have made up their minds already about the Boston bombing...

Many of them have gone off the deep end, blaming "Islamics."

Yet most of these assholes were dead silent when it came out that a WHITE, RACIST swine was to blame for the 1995 bombing.

As the nation mourned the April 15 bombings at the Boston Marathon, media figures used the attacks to offer conspiracy theories, make Islamophobic comments, and push petty political and personal attacks.
