The Boston Marathon Bombing: An Attack on Freedom / Human Spirit

The Boston Marathon Bombing was a devastating act of terror that took place on April 15, 2013, near the finish line of the Boston Marathon. It was a coordinated attack that killed three people and injured hundreds more, shattering the peace and security of the city. This heinous act was not just an attack on the physical well-being of the victims and their families but was also an attack on freedom and the human spirit. It was an attempt to undermine the very foundation of our society by instilling fear, chaos, and hatred.

   Meant to intimidate and terrorize innocent civilians who were exercising their right to assemble, to cheer on the runners, and to celebrate the human spirit. The bombing was not just an attack on the marathon runners, but also on the spectators who came from all over the world to witness this iconic event. By targeting a public event, the terrorists sought to disrupt the sense of normalcy and freedom that we all cherish. They wanted to create a climate of fear that would restrict our ability to enjoy our basic liberties and rights.

Despite the chaos and destruction caused by the attack, the people of Boston came together in a remarkable show of solidarity and support. They refused to be cowed by the terrorists and instead demonstrated remarkable courage, compassion, and kindness. The resilience and determination of the people of Boston were an inspiring example of the human spirit's strength and vitality, which cannot be defeated by acts of violence and terror.
