Huge Explosion in Nashville may have been “intentional”
I wonder who or what the culprit is? How much propane can a Rv camper have on board? Conflicting reports as of now.
While authorities don't suspect foul play, scenes from the explosion area look like a warzone.

Police spokesman Don Aaron said the 6:30 a.m. explosion, which shattered glass and damaged buildings, was believed to be “an intentional act.” Police earlier said they believe a vehicle was involved in the explosion. He said three people were taken to area hospitals for treatment, although none were in critical condition.
Police and fire crews were on the scene, as were investigators from the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

"believed to be “an intentional act" says the spokesman. Wow, what a piece of detective work 😲
rv have a hundred poundbelly tank> news said no plates on the rv
Entered in the hub of a thriving and open bar district. Speculation? Remote detonation when they saw that the RV was being inspected. Good work by cop on scene.

Get ready for more attacks on our soil.
Yep, but they (authorities) don't suspect foul play...........Dumb......Da......Dumb Dumb........
Could be terrorism and could be Iran but would they attack knowing That Biden is coming into office?

Someone had to close the bars. There is COVID out there, gol darn it.
News reported that the van was rigged with a speaker warning of an explosion to come. If true a statement, not an attempt to kill. Very curious.
Brad Steele
If true then it could be homegrown terrorism putting everybody on notice.

Hmmm. Two days ago the BGE (Baltimore Gas & Electric) headquarters was damaged by an explosion that injured 10 construction works. Natural gas had been turned off & building was empty for renovations.
So, if it wasn't natural gas, what was it?
Coincidence?

I just heard a news report on the radio from an anonymous source that said they may have found 'human remains' at the scene. Extravagant suicide?
serf posted; I wonder who or what the culprit is?
My question is not who but why.
Create a situation/need. What would be the solution? Then who profits from the solution?
Was not a gas explosion. Left a huge crater and huge blast radius.
Setting up the right wing for an attack on the right wing by the incoming chicom traitors?
It's been all propaganda and disinformation from the commie bought and paid for d-rats and LSM so far.
This would fit the crooked commie d-rat agenda perfectly.
We're living in the biggest scam ever now engineered by bidens bribers the chicoms.
Chicoms killed 45 million of their own for communism.
Supplicant d-rat morons excusing and letting china get away this = are all traitors.
As reported, at this time, they don't who did it. Yet according to headlines they know why it was done. Amazing mind reading skills.
That is my guess. Either someone laid off or fired from one of the nearby businesses or a failed country music wannabe perhaps. The phone call to get the police in the area and then warning them about the imminent blast coming in 15 minutes. Then the blast didn't happen for almost 30 minutes, almost like someone was watching to make sure the evacuation was complete. Seems like someone wanted to go out with a bang but wanted to avoid other casualties. I wonder if there is a letter in the mail to the police or news people from the bomber that will explain their actions. Bob

We won't know anything for a few weeks then! Don
I'm no explosive expert, but I doubt propane could leave a big crater?? Would like to hear an analysis from someone on here that knows more than me.
When the loud speaker warned people to get away and then the RV blows up I have a little more suspicion that to say "it may be intentional. No scat Sherlock.
I think it was ANFO to make that big of a bang, propane is more a fireball.
"I just heard a news report on the radio from an anonymous source that said they may have found 'human remains' at the scene. Extravagant suicide?"
That is a good guess. They went to a lot of trouble to warn away bystanders. Very interesting case.
Trying to keep drones and news crews from video???
Got a lot of #8 shells.... I would love to go skeet shooting .
I haven't been able to see a crater in any of the photos I have seen, just mounds of rubble.
Your comments contribute nothing to this discussion except to spew venomous hatred and garbage. These types of comments usually result in pushing the thread to Politics. Instead I'm deleting the useless post and telling you why. Do NOT continue this.
nononsense
They are saying 1 crazy guy, local to the area paranoid believing the USG was going to use 5G technology to control people.
He gave away his house a month ago and even the google image of his home shows an RV.
The first thought I had was of someone going out with a bang. Not trying to sound funny, that was the thought I had.
I saw a story the other day that said he was parked in front of the AT&T office. Now it makes sense, kind of.
Joe
What does the FBI do with the called-in tips?
Write them on a post-it, then fold it up and place it under the wobbly table in the breakroom?
Look like the guy was a homegrown nut case about anti 5G technology and he hit a ATT/NSA hub site. He committed a suicide by bomb and warned people by voice recording. He will change nothing other then get The authorities paranoid and clamp down more on free speech about surveillance technologies and how they use it.
They the government can store with recorded tape for long term storage with 530 TB of data now and every Cell phone used is re-recorded with time stamp with locations of all numbers called or received and saved for over 5 years in the cloud for future use and all it takes is money to use it for anyone who is interested in your movements.

‘Downtown’ by Petula Clark played from RV prior to Nashville explosion

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — The mid-1960s classic “Downtown” by Petula Clark played from the RV parked in downtown Nashville prior to the explosion that damaged more than 40 buildings and injured at least three people Christmas morning.
“What I remembered was ‘downtown, where the lights shine bright,’” Metro Officer Tyler Luellen said of the song playing, as he and his fellow officers worked fast to evacuate people in the area of Second Avenue North and Commerce Street.
Officer Luellen was one of five officers who spoke to the media Sunday morning about their efforts to clear the area around downtown Nashville, as the RV played messages, including a countdown, warning it would detonate. A bomb inside the RV exploded around 6:30 a.m. Friday, leaving behind a trail of destruction.
The officer said he looked up the song later and discovered it was “Downtown” by Petula Clark, the chart-topping song that begins, “when you’re alone and life is making you lonely, you can always go downtown.”
During the media briefing, Officer James Wells revealed the RV had surveillance cameras on it.
“There was also cameras on the RV like surveillance cameras above the mirror,” Officer Wells explained. “It felt like whoever was behind it was watching us.”
Good to see you post, serf. When I heard about the 5g connection, well...
Brad Steele
you too
It is not surprising that someone wacky enough to believe in 5G conspiracy theories would commit suicide to both drive his point home and escape his fear. This is probably another case where the internet causes great harm by fueling and giving a platform for these hair brained ideas. It is sad his B.S. filter was defective and he worried about a baseless conspiracy theory. After all some Hollywood celebs and other comparable mental giants believe in those theories too. Bob
Come on Bob,having a cell phone next to your head is dumb and many use blue tooth ear piece now.Now living next to a 5g transmitter is not wise either. You are showing your colors when you wish to curtail free speech and the right to the first and second amendments in the Bill of Rights!
For as one says you would not have the first amendment without The 2nd and you seem to be proving it.

I am a firm believer in all of the amendments. The first amendment gives me the opportunity to call some opinions total bunk and I don't seem to shy away from doing so. Perhaps if you read this article from Forbes it will explain 5G risks or rather the lack of risks better than I can.
There are countless real problems in this country and we don't need to create imaginary ones that cause us to lose focus on the real ones. One being the almost certain attack on our 2nd amendment rights by the incoming administration. When the B.S. theories consume our awareness then real problems arise and get ignored.
Primitive people can be terrified of technology and explain it by contributing it to dark magic, evil spirits, evil intentions and conspiracy theories. I would like to think that most on this forum are not that primitive. Bob

Each 5G product will also have multiple phased array antennas which will be used to create a powerful beam of radiation back to the 5G devices mounted on electrical utility poles or toward a specific satellite in space.
These beams of radiation will also need to be strong enough to pass through walls and human flesh such as a hand or head to reach the intended destination. [2]
This means that if you are in a crowded location, such as an airport or on a train, there will be hundreds if not thousands of invisible beams of radiation flying through the environment at the speed of light.
As people move in that environment, their bodies will be penetrated by numerous beams of radiation as they walk or as other people walk around them with their 5G smartphones. [2]
5G Phones will be much more Powerful than Previous Phones

It was an elaborate suicide..........motivated by what? We shall see.
I guess if'n your gonna go out, then go out big.
Try this link from the American Cancer Society then. If you read it all the way through it will tell you why high frequency 5G is actually safer than the wavelengths commonly used now.

So as I stated in the earlier post this nuts fears were totally irrational. But I guess you have to be irrational to blow yourself up as a form of protest. Bob
its straight out of a movie...
the music, the countdown, pretty loco
Who will be the first to write (record) a country song about this one?
