Seeing reports that nearby residents were evacuated an hour before it went off. The rv was parked right in front of an ATT switch building.

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?
Bc it’s the first thing everyone will see or hear about when they turn on the TV Christmas morning. It’s psychological.
Maybe they didn’t want to get caught.
These people are psycho. There isn’t always a reasonable explanation for what they do.

Could have been detonated early because bomb squad was almost on the scene.

It really doesn't matter (when) if it was intentional. The point of it would be to get attention and draw fear.
Yep. I don’t believe in coincidences. This was either a middle finger to the Christian faith on Christmas morning, or some type of false flag to shift attention from potential election fall out. The amount of news coverage this gets after the weekend will be very telling.

I used to work in one of the affected buildings. Pretty scary.

CNN (forgive me) just said the police got a call about a suspicious vehicle. As soon as the cops arrived it blew up.
I’m going to be exponentially more pissed if this was Antifa than if it was a foreign terror organization.

Well, I'm on record here as despising any and everything to do with that useless company. So, this is my official statement of denial. However, if ATT was targeted, it could literally be anyone.

This was a targeted attack against police. Looking more and more like that.
The mother fricking left got their way by protesting against police and then they got away with cheating. They’re emboldened more now than ever before.

You thinking an "Operation Northwoods" type event?

CNN will assume this as right wing until proven otherwise

That building is a big fricking brick. Doesn't look like much damage to that building. All the businesses across the street however, are badly damaged.

The big red building right in front of the blast is an ATT switch building. Batman building is around the corner at 3rd and Commerce.

Sounds about like ATT. Be the only game in town and shite on everything around them whilst raking in money.

Getting plenty of attention without hurting anyone.

Right. I recognized the brick building in one of the videos. Have to think the terrorist meant for the bomb to be set off tomorrow closer to Broadway. Maybe he was posted up there today thinking he would go unnoticed.

Maybe so. But I'd still bet that was not where he intended to set off the bomb.

Calm down.
It seems as if it was targeted at LEO, then why did they detonate it before police even really got on the scene? It essentially went off as soon as the bomb squad was radioed. Could have been intended to go off later, but someone detonated it early because they got found out. I'm only speculating.

I thought I heard both CNN and Fox both say it detonated as police were arriving. My kid was shooting his new massive nerf gun at me though so I may have misunderstood.
