Then there was the exploding Tesla in Vegas. Thankfully, only the driver died in that one.
Both men were stationed on the same army base at one time. The Vegas guy was a Green Beret so they weren't in the same units or anything.
They both used the same app (Toro) to rent the trucks and both were E vehicles..
In the Vegas case, the tank like Tesla truck probably helped contain the blast a little, but it could have been worse. Think exploding batteries..
In New Orleans, the batteries just make those vehicles 1000 pounds heavier making them more destructive running into things..

So much hate.
Home made bombs are obviously lethal, but as we have seen over the last couple of weeks, all a nutter needs is a vehicle to devastate many lives in one go.

The BBC reporting is as bad as ever.
None stop repeats.
Woman with a big gold hat on starts the ball rolling
younger woman takes over repeating what the first woman said
then the FBI come on and repeat it yet again then the BBC reporter arrives and repeats it all over again
and on and on it goes.
If it's designed to make you switch off it works

It's always been the case.
If a person is hell bent on killing people, there is no way to stop them from targeting places where people congregate outside.
And bombs are also fairly easy to make. A moderately trained goat farmer in Afghanistan can make one.
Many people have given certain weapons mythical properties, which I think MAY attract a certain nut to that weapon, but from a carnage standpoint, a 4000 vehicle is likely the more devastating device..

Nice to see the thread lasted almost a day before turning into the usual death, destruction and suffering that people here seem to enjoy talking about.
PS happy new year to all.

How many times can we say Happy New Year to each other?
Here's hoping 2025 is good for us all.
Yes indeed. I'm sitting here swigging blood orange gin!

Happy New Year to everyone! Here's to a more peaceful, happier, and healthier year ahead.
Thanks to all who have contributed posts throughout the year. I have enjoyed reading them and have even plucked up the courage to post a few times.
Your posts are welcome, and apart from Maddog, we are a friendly bunch.
😎❤️
This asshole isn't having a good New Year.
