The response has really been polarized. There has been two types of radically opposed reactions. 

- The people who learn from 9/11 

Those have had a marvelous response. They understood that fear was not the behaviour to have to respond to a bombing attack. Nobody knows what happened at that point and all the people could do is make sure that people were doing fine. Those people ran to hospitals go give blood, opened their wifis to let people reassure their families, went to the streets to talk with victims and witnesses to recomfort them and get moral assistance to them, restaurants provided free drinks and lunches ... 

That examplary response was present and I deeply endorse it. It's great to see that.

- And those that didn't 

People like Erik Rush advising to kill all muslims while no proof at all from who made the attack was available was truely stupid. (Even if we knew who did it, that response would still be stupid). Saudi being interpelled at the bombing and directly being questioned while he was actually just a victim of the bombing and other points just showed some proof of a bad response. 


I think that Boston had a very good response overall but some people made a lot of noise by saying stupid things.
