What? This is the first I've heard of this. Do you have any reliable sources that you could link to?

Of Bataclan victims? What sort of meds did you run out of? I ignore you.

Driver identified:

Two French police officials say identity papers found alongside the attacker belonged to a 31-year-old Frenchman with previous misdemeanor convictions but no known link to extremist groups, according to the Associated Press.

Local French media report say officials have identified him as Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel and that police searched his apartment Friday morning.

Coincidence or popular name -

Wassim Bouhlel, a Nice native, told the Associated Press that he saw the truck drive into the crowd. “There was carnage on the road,” Bouhlel said. “Bodies everywhere.”

Second guy was quoted as witness in one of the very first news reports. Also that he "witnessed" the beginning of the event.

Coincidence or not I'm skeptical until proven otherwise.

OSAC members, this is a "truck attack".

Would an example of irony be a BLM group blocking a major highway and along comes a mooselimb driving a truck at high speed on said highway?

Small government Americans take heart. If you are outside the United States your government is small indeed.

Meanwhile the UK is "working urgently" to determine if any Britains are caught up in the attack. The new PM is calling a COBRA meeting. Is the US government even watching the news yet?

No. The President is too busy coordinating with Black Live's Matter terrorists the Federal takeover of State and Local law enforcement.

You have to remember who the current and former bosses of the DoS are. Also remember that in Paris they locked the gates and would not let Americans in need - IN.

Incompetence leading the incompetent!

That's asinine!

Maybe so.

Your premise that a Muslim would do that is what's mostly asinine. Will an angry white supremacist with anger management issues fulfill your prescient thoughts? Very likely.

I'd be more of the opinion that now that the world knows the power of 19-ton truck vs. Kalashnikov and suicide vests. The truck is Optimus Prime in destructive power and the police are incapable of stopping it.

Expect more attacks like this in the future.

I see and agree with your contention that a member of the peaceful religion would do such a thing. The extra bacon this morning must have interfered with my clear thinking.

It's obvious the problem is with gun loving 'Muricans.

Here, assuming the translation is correct.

Speaking of testicles, I saw a video last night of a man on a motorbike ride alongside just before the event began in earnest and jump from his still moving motorbike on to the side of the truck at the drivers door.

That takes some huge balls! I don't think he had much chance to change the outcome but he tried.

Now, if he had been that heroic with a Glock 17 in hand, this event would have been over shortly after it started.

Maybe the French will see that their citizens are not afraid, just unprepared and stripped of their rights to self-protection.

This example of proof of concept, will demonstrate to ISIS followers the means of atrocity lay in the easily accessible.

It will interesting to see how POTUS ties in gun control to this terrorist attack and if this doesn't convince the sheep that terrorism is not an abstract theory nothing will.

I agree 100% armed citizens would have had the potential to mitigate the carnage
