Just saw this pop up on Reddit first, of all places. Don't know if it was intentional yet.

Ugh sounds like another attack, for sure, from that Sky post.

Prayers to all involved. This crap is getting very old, very fast.

Not much can be done about it either, short of letting ISIS aggro us into a "prophetic battle". And then stomping them. (Stomping them away from the prophetic battle they're angling for, would only leave the impression prophecy might be fulfilled later.)

It's being called a terrorist attack.

My sympathies to the victims and families. These sort of truck v pedestrians attacks will only get worse because they are so easy to commit. In this case the truck was stolen right as the company driver was unloading wares from the back at his delivery site.
