Here is how he got on Bourbon

Wow

 

[Kramer]

Why is that camera following that specific truck? Or was it edited?

Edit: Nevermind. Looks like someone took cell phone video of a surveillance camera so they were following the truck on the screen.

But why was the surveillance camera following the truck?

Just wow, so the road was blocked off and he went through the corner sidewalk. Geez.

Just heard it reported on NBC that the death toll is unfortunately 15, not 10 as previously reported

CNN has a camera on the press conference already. Everybody and their grandmothers are there.

It's not. It's a wide shot and it is on a big wide screen. The person with the phone is recording from the wide screen and following the truck.

I have questions. Why were there unexploded IEDs in the truck? Was there a plan to plant them that backfired? Was the plan to blow up the truck in a crowd? This was not a "woke up this morning and decided to kill people" attack. It was planned for a while because you don't just throw together an IED, it takes time, and there were more than one in the truck as well as some (reportedly) found at other locations. Every video shows the flag on the truck furled. Maybe the plan was to unfurl it before the final act that never happened because the driver ran into that equipment that was parked in the street. Maybe? And the media keeps saying an ISIS flag was found "in" the vehicle, not "on" the vehicle. Was it in the cab of the truck? What was the flag on the hitch? I know they need to investigate further and any news will be speculation because no facts will be released that might hamper the investigation, but they need to throw us something other than the man was Muslim and had an ISIS flag.
At any rate, I hope this doesn't start another Muslim hunt in the US. We don't need Mosques being burned or mass shootings with innocent people inside.

FBI: Jabbar was not solely responsible. He had help.

I couldn't quite grasp it. So he made the sudden move to pass up the vehicle that was blocking the street and went around jumping -- pretty easily -- the corner he hadn't passed yet? I wasn't sure also if he hit that vehicle but he must have I guess? And then got another 3 blocks past.

Probably not directly related, but could have been added fuel. Guy had two divorces.

One in 2012, another in 2021.

If he was paying child support for multiple kids, that could be financially devastating. Texas CS is no joke.

Looks like he turned from Canal to entrance of Bourbon which usually isn't blocked off by any serious barricades.

Is the FBI in it?

Yeah, hard to believe. I wonder if there are other angles. I'm sure there are other security cameras scattered across Burbon and of course people pulling out their phones.

And I'm sure we'll see body camera footage of the shootout with the police.

And right in front of that police cruiser sitting there.

They said right off the bat it was a terrorist attack. I’ll be interested to hear the motive.

Good God, what is wrong in the country??

Abandoning God was a start.
