That was my thought. Who is out at 3:15 am and why?



Very normal behavior for young people in their early twenties having fun . Especially on NYE And especially in New Orleans .

What was on the flag?


Honestly, no one knows.

I don't think there has been a picture or video with the flag waving or something clearly visible

FBI refusing to call this a terrorist attack though

EDIT:

This was absolutely an act of terror. FBI downplaying this for no reason.

The rear bumper has a color matching trim vs. entry level black bumper. Could very well be a dealer rental. That's clearly the only other possibility besides an outright purchase. Killer would've had to make at least one stop between HTX and NOLA to charge it. The max range it could get is 320 miles in perfect conditions, nonstop. And I believe that's with the highest trim possible.


Or it was stolen.

Is there a solid cliff notes post of where things are right now?

- driver shot killed
- had body armour
- 10 deaths, 2 cops shot but stable, any other injuries?
- electric truck rental from Houston
- some kind of flag that was covered in the back

Anything else other than complete wild speculation?

Pretty surprising there hasn’t been some footage released with more pics of the flag flying. I doubt he was driving around with it wrapped that way.

Islam, at its most essential core is a CONQUEST religion. The violence within it is inherent in a way that it’s not in any other religion. We can call it “ radical” Islam but it’s really just part of what comes with Islam. It cannot ever be a truly peaceful religion in the way Buddhism is for instance. It values and teaches an entirely different lesson.

This is an understatement. The governor is more focused on the FQ instead of JP and the terrorist camp they are allowing to grow.

i liked your idea earlier about it being a Lightning instead of a gas vehicle because of the overall noise.

The sticker doesn’t confirm from Houston and I haven’t seen anything that confirms it was a rental. Could’ve been purchased new or used

There is speculation that the Sugar Bowl in the dome tonight might be canceled.


Well of course there’s “speculation,” but as of right now, NOPD said the game will go on as planned and the Sugar Bowl announced they are monitoring the situation.

I would imagine if they find out this was a larger conspiracy and could be threats to the game, they will cancel

I’m just heartbroken over this. We rag on NOLA, but am at a loss of words here. This is family.

I have a photo of driver dead next to truck. He's wearing fatigues but no armor.

I wasn’t aware of this but I don’t live out there. The West Bank has been getting a lot of middle easterners recently?
