Tonight on the program, we take a look at supposed plans by the Boston Marathon bombers to target Times Square for a second attack. Also: the U.S. believes the Syrian regime has used chemical weapons, all the living presidents gather for the dedication of the George W. Bush Presidential Library, and how the gun control fight feels familiar to advocates of another era.
