How long until Mayor Cooper announces Nashville is back in Phase 1 because the blast could have dispersed Covid-19 particles across town.

Saw where one of the Nashville residents said that there is a AT&T switch/bunker on that block. Not the main building, but one of the command center things with no windows that are in every major city.

Someone who thinks the government is spying on them could easily see that as a target.

I Intend to agree ... especially after seeing the mayor chuckle on camera during his interview. I believe the RV was staged their and intended to be moved. Drive it straight down Broadway at 6:30 tonight. Park it, get out, walk away and boom ...

Extremely fortunate for the cop that arrived on scene to clear the area

Local news reporting the rv was blaring a recorded message warning of explosion and started to give a countdown.

I'm wondering too if this was an attack on the ATT building.

Should be easy to confirm this by someone posting it on social media. Don’t see how someone wouldn’t have filmed that weird message if it happened with how people film everything.

If that's true, then maybe the person was trying to minimize casualties but still stick it to the infrastructure. Seems like a lot of work just because you're pissed off about 5G, but there are crazy people in this world.

It is the leader in the clubhouse.

I can see where blinding hatred for that despicable company could lead to irrational behavior

166 N. 2nd Street would appear to be the building referenced

There are other offices housed in that building. My bff's dad had his law offices there before retiring. Could be a disgruntled client, too. It would be very symbolic to stage revenge on Christmas Day.

The only good thing from all of this is there will be lots of video footage to look through and find out what happened.

The best thing is there are only three non-critical injuries and no deaths.

If you’re trying to blow up a building without hurting anyone, I’d guess bombing it at 6:30 a.m. on Christmas morning is about the best time to do so.

Friend of mine called his son that lives in Nashville and he said it was in front of a Hooters. I've only been to a Hooters for their fantastic wings.

I lean towards the person(s) who did this didn’t have mass casualties in mind. If they did, early on Christmas morning doesn’t make much sense. Especially if it’s not near a church or somewhere people would be congregating.
