Both Mayor de Blasio and Gov. Cuomo were headed to the scene and will immediately call for more gun control/laws.

There are reports on Twitter of the shooter yelling Allah Akbar, and there is a picture of a gunman with what looked like a sawed off shotgun. It is twitter so who knows.

True, but if he was going in the ‘right’ direction, it could be a health related incident, black-out, etc..............

“Both mayor deblasio and governor cuomo were headed to the scene of their making.”.......

Particularly when police told "everyone" (I guess the mayor and governor of NY are not real people) to stay way from that area. Yes, a place of "tradegy" they might well have created due to their liberal leanings.

For a photo op and an opportunity to slam Trump.

Didn’t we all predict that the enemy would have to pull out something else to distract attention?
Gee I thought they were going to wait till November 4th.

Are you sure that the driver was not an Orthodox Jew or an Irish Carmelite nun, or an American veteran? /s

“You can’t have guns in NYC. It’s against the law.”

I think they still allow the police to have guns in NYC ...

In larger cities there are often designated left or right hand bike lanes just like regular auto lanes. This guy obviously wanted to cause maximum mayhem by running against the traffic direction.

Our son works in that part of town, and finishes work about 2:30 or so. So Mrs. JimRed was frantic until he replied to her text to him.

It was an AK-15 with a bump silencer firing automatic bullets.
