Anyone else raise the turn here, and call down from 3bet on?

I would have raised the turn. I have a powerful holding, the board is very draw heavy, I am not going to scare anyone off and I likely have the best hand.

I would have raised the turn, because I dont want to make the various straight draws so cheap...

I wouldn't really consider this to be alot of action. With the guys in the middle padding the pot, I think that we have the equity to raise the turn here.

I am raising the turn again

Action? Where?

Folding anywhere barring no spade, ten or six would be a huge mistake imo.

Also, with the number of people trapped in this hand, I think you should raise the turn. We may be behind JT or a set here, but all those people calling/chasing on the turn provides a huge overlay for when our two pair is good. There aren't really any protection options, so just build a huge pot and hope it's pushed your way.

I'm not saying get way out of hand here, if he 3-bets you, definitely go into call-down mode.

As soon as I read this I thought "where is the turn raise?"

There is no reason to suspect you are behind yet and I would raise the turn and take it from there. You have plenty of equity in this pot with so many in, make them pay.
