Sad that on Christmas day there was a piece of crap that would do this. I hope they find who did this and take him out.

So i live here and there is some sort of interesting angle to this bombing. It was done at a time when no one would be around and there were warnings to evacuate the area broadcasted via loud speaker from the rv at least 30 mins prior to detonation. The last 15 mins was a countdown with warnings. I say interesting because it appears at the current face value that loss of life was not at all the motive. Could it be a disgruntled employee looking to do property damage? The AT&T network took a direct hit and disabled the 911 systems for many counties including two that i serve at my job. Im super curious to what the motive was. Maybe a test to see what damage could be done to the 911 systems for a later, larger attack??

I saw the same thing. I follow a few folks based in Nashville & it was as eerie as you said. The loudspeaker broadcasting the woman giving the countdown was especially weird. Thankful no deaths have been reported. Sounds like three were hospitalized from the blast.

Yes. Super strange. I have a good friend who is MNPD and early on it seemed as though the could have possibly been targeting police. As in getting them to respond to the van and then detonating the bomb. He did not believe that was the case. He said if they were targeting us they would have done it at on a fri or sat night when they are running two officers per block. They waited until they knew no one would hardly be around.

I did read that all the bars were shut down to covid and Christmas. Which like you said is extremely interesting. Makes you wonder what is really going on?

From what I caught on the news, this was just one guy acting on his own. He was not on anyone's radar as being any kind of a threat. Just spit ballin' here, but I'm guessing he did it at that date/time and with the countdown announcement to avoid killing anyone. They're still trying to figure out his motivation (5G rollout?), but he must have been sick. Didn't want to hurt anyone, yet stayed there so he would be killed in the blast?

Yes, he definitely wanted attention so you may be right about targeting AT&T/5G. Really strange & didn’t get as much news coverage as I would’ve thought. Glad their wasn’t any collateral deaths & hope the injuries that occurred were minor or at least ones that the victims can recover.

This was an incredible amount of damage. I would really like to know what he used and how he got it. Judging by his house and being in a poorer area of town, I doubt he had a lot of money. This question is really bothering me.

Sounds like he committed suicide in the van. Is anyone else seeing this? Hard to know what to believe these days.
