Well he missed. The Opry is nowhere near downtown.

On a serious note this will now get blamed on the handful of White Supremacists that populate the USA.

The media will do its best to discredit this being the work of foreign terrorists and will search for reasons to believe a Trumper did this. 100%

Right. This was closer to the Ryman but still not that close. About two or three blocks away if I remember correctly. I used to work in Nashville a lot.

Wonder why they chose to do this at 6:30am on Christmas morning?

While nowhere near like Detroit, Philadelphia, or New York City, Nashville does have a fairy large Middle Eastern population. However, a lot are of the Coptic Christian sect.

I may be wrong, but my guess is that this was some deranged white male lunatic à la the Las Vegas shooter, Timothy McVay, the Nashville Waffle House shooter, the Columbine shooters, and so forth.

Some other posts are saying it blew up after someone called popo. Maybe it wasn't supposed to go off until later.

Sounds like there are no serious injuries or fatalities thus far, correct?

Then why not at 7:00 PM tonight or tomorrow when the area is much more crowded? Why do it on a side street and not on Broadway?

If it was a motorhome they have huge propane tanks in them. Mine is 38 gallons. All it would take is a fire of some type. Being it was cold I suspect a heater or furnace malfunctioned.

It really doesn't matter (when) if it was intentional. The point of it would be to get attention and draw fear.

Police just said this was intentional. This was not a malfunction.

I hope we catch who ever did this. We could hate other cities but no terrorist can attack our cities

And commits to sending more Troops to the Middle East to die.

The Establishment is back in power, and we will be back in endless war.
