I always get a little disgusted at people who proclaim something “too violent to see”. Some poor schlub had to LIVE it, not just watch it.

Good point about the images being used the way they were.

True, maybe this ought to be the time (at last) when ever civilized person is required to view such images and learn about what is really going on. All the politically correct cupcakes remain so sanitized in their pious platitudes....

Inspire magazine had urged jihadis to choose “pedestrian only” areas & ram vehicles into the crowd to “achieve maximum carnage.” #Nice

For now, CBSN coverage calling it a criminal attack. I don’t have a big problem with that at this point as we don’t know for certain what it is. Certainly I am suspicious of islamic terror and I think we will find out soon that is what it is. I would not expect a network like CBS to do anything different than they have done before if confirmed this is islamic terror. Would assume they will immediately go into apologist mode.

CBSN just showed the truck attack as it happened. Truck driving through at a relatively slow speed and then picks up speed as it closes on the crowd. The screams of the crowd are terrible to hear.

Just yesterday the new moslem mayor of London called for closing off traffic to a major London shopping area street and making it a pedestrian mall. Coincidence? Hmmmmm.

I am sure this was not done by a Muslim terrorist. Probably just a poor, jobless, self-loathing latent homosexual who is bi-polar with anti-social tendencies and was simply searching frantically for his lost goat. This slaughter is obviously the fault of privileged white Christians and racist cops.

If only someone had given him a job and a hug, yes mostly a hug.

Altogether now:

All you need is love

All you need is love

All you need is love, love

Love is all you need

Shep saw one of the videos. Said there were dismembered and decapitated bodies including children. I will not be watching any of them. I know my limits.

Grenades found inside truck.

Also, plainclothes cops can carry in France can apparently carry and may have stopped this attack.
