(31,960 posts)I was thinking "hell has spread ACROSS New England" until I checked the Bangor Daily News...nothing about such a bombing. Then re read this article "Bangor Mich."
Bangor is in Western Michigan about ~30 miles west of Kalamazoo and ~75 miles northeast of Chicago.
"All clear" per The Kalamazoo Gazette/Mlive.com

(563 posts)Ever since the Boston bombing, stupid people have been taking advantage of the terror doing stuff like this. Just today in my state a student made a bomb threat to another school and that school was closed for the day. And when the cops asked the student why he did it, he said "it was a joke" some people are soooo pathetic!
