At least 15 killed in New Orleans attack

Anyone think the cybertruck explosion in front of Trump’s LV hotel is a mere coincidence?

Maybe people who don’t know about the quality control of the cybertruck.
It might be something nefarious, but those things are garbage.

Why don't you tell us your well formed theory?

No theory but that didn’t look like an ordinary car fire.

I do believe we may be dealing with a homegrown ISIS cell since multiple people appear to be involved in this act.

What would blowing up one cyber truck achieve as an act of terrorism?

 

[HintonJamesHeel]

it’s hard to beat a religion that believes it’s their duty to kill everyone.

Yes, that is what I meant by the (admittedly somewhat vague) reference to a Canyonero incident.

I got it, fwiw

If that was intentional, I'm guessing that it was not terrorism but rather the sort of self-immolation that we've seen in recent years from people setting themselves on fire.

Yes, cybertrucks are horribly made, but the explosion in a Musk vehicle -- and the signature one in the public mind -- in front of a Trump hotel seems awfully coincidental. That said, most people who bought a cybertruck because they wanted to own one are definitely Trump/Musk stans, so in front of a Trump hotel is one of the most predictable environments.

One would think that the terrorist thing to do would be to crash into the hotel and then explode. Especially with the cybertruck.

It’s convenient he had the Isis flag to make

Oh really? what religion are you referring to?

what religion is that? also, you know that religions don't believe anything, right? If you are referring to Muslims, I would invite you to take that shit elsewhere please. Do not besmirch our board with such lazy racism/xenophobia/intolerance/stupidity. Find somewhere else to peddle that ignorance.

Wait. Your operating theory is that there was planning between the cybertruck and New Orleans? I'd be willing to give you 10:1 odds on a bet on that one.

I didn't even notice that. That theory is . . . wild. Were they also coordinating with the shooting in Montenegro?

What insinuation are you trying to make?

MSNBC's Ken Delanian reporting that they no longer believe there were multiple people. Two bystanders have been ruled out as planting bombs.

Seems this happens more often than not with these things. Just a lone nutjob.

Actually just heard that cybertruck was also rented through Turo. If true, I’m going down to 2:1 odds

Never mind. I see super has addressed this already.

Extreme fringe Islam terrorists. It’s pretty clear that it’s them. Never said it was everyone but there’s a fraction of the religion that believes they have the right and not only that - God has commanded them to kill others.
