it of fear and timidity, but one of power and love and 
self-discipline.Like Bill Iffrig, 78 years old, the runner in the orange 
tank-top who we all saw get knocked down by the blast, we 
may be momentarily knocked off our feet, but we'll pick ourselves up.We'll 
keep going. We will finish the race.(APPLAUSE)In the words of Dick Hoyt, 
who's pushed his disabled son Rick in 31 Boston Marathons, we can't 
let something like this stop us.(APPLAUSE)This doesn't stop us.(APPLAUSE)And 
that's what you've taught us, Boston. That's what you've reminded us, to 
push on, to persevere, to not grow weary, to not get faint, 
even when it hurts. Even when our heart aches, we summon the 
strength that maybe we didn't even know we had and we carry 
on. We finish the race. We finish the race.(APPLAUSE)And we do that 
because of who we are. And we do that because we know 
that somewhere around the bend a stranger has a cup of water. 
Around the bend, somebody's there to boost our spirits. On that toughest 
mile, just when we think that we've hit a wall, someone will 
be there to cheer us on and pick us up if we 
fall. We know that.(APPLAUSE)And that's what the perpetrators of such senseless 
violence, these -- these small, stunted individuals who would destroy instead 
of build and think somehow that makes them important, that's what they 
don't understand. Our faith in each other, our love for each other, 
our love for country, our common creed that cuts across whatever 
ing smoke.Swanton 
said a "small amount of looting" has occurred near the blast site, 
but he did not provide additional details. He said looters are a 
"significant concern" to authorities and that at least one person suspected 
of being a looter was spotting running from a damaged home."The town 
is secure," Swanton added.The U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms 
and Explosives is sending a national response team to the site. ATF 
spokeswoman Franceska Perot said Thursday the unit includes fire investigators, 
explosives experts, chemists and canine units.The main fire was under control 
as of 11 p.m., Texas Department of Public Safety spokesman D.L. Wilson 
said, but residents were urged to remain indoors because of the threat 
of new explosions or leaks of ammonia from the plant's ruins.Dozens of 
emergency vehicles amassed at the scene in the hours after the blast, 
as fires continued to smolder in the ruins of the plant and 
in several surrounding buildings. Aerial footage showed injured people being 
treated on the flood-lit football field that had been turned into a 
staging area.Vanek said first-responders treated victims at about half a 
dozen sites, and he saw several injured residents from the nursing home 
being treated at the community center. Swanton said early Thursday morning 
the injured were being taken to hospitals in Waco and a triage 
center at high school in nearby Abbott.At least three people were in 
critical condition at hos
