An Empty Boston

Perhaps a guy known as Happy Gilmore said it best with this Twitter post that was re-tweeted 26,000 times Friday: "Boston is probably the only major city that if you (mess) with them, they will shut down the whole city...stop everything.. and find you."

Boston is empty. Roughly 400,000 people are huddled at home while police SWAT teams and FBI agents track down the man believed to be responsible for the Boston Marathon bombing.

The subway system and bus system are shut down, streets, schools and businesses are closed. It has to be weird to look outside in Boston today.
