Nashville Bombing

[Jolly]

It ain't luck.

Raid going on for a person of interest - will be interesting to learn a bit more. I have to think that they'll go in heavy on something like this - and some risk of an adverse outcome for those entering a place where a bomb or bombs have been made.

No, it's not. This was very deliberate, well planned and financed. It had a specific goal, most likely connected to the AT&T center.

The kooks are out in force. I went down a rabbit hole on twitter about the person of interest that has been identified. Many of the twitter posters seemed more fucked up than the person of interest. Of course they tied Trump to this.

This used to be my job. Cut a critical comms node, see what effect it has on the target, how long it takes to restore, how the adversary responds. Of course, that was war.

Your job? You mean, your job was to model all this? That sounds like a very interesting way to make a living!

Rumor is the person of interest died in the blast.

He was quoting from a Facebook page someone posted. It's since been deleted.

It was a suicide, but it wasn't a "I can't take it anymore" type of suicide. More like a True Believer suicide. I tend to not think it was specifically tied into the AT&T Center, and from what I've read and seen, it didn't shut down the cities communications...Nashville's police lines were just fine, but interestingly enough it did knock out Knoxville's... The airport halted flights for 90 minutes, but there were other reasons besides telecommunications...

I tend to think that once they id the person, they will find some kind of manifesto...

@lufins-dad agreed, probably some looney/paranoid old white dude with a beard who lived in the country

I think it was Iran or North Korea testing out some equipment.

They are preparing for Mr. Biden's inauguration or maybe the Super Bowl.

Well the rumor is no longer a rumor. Looks like a single event with nothing further coming.

You don't live in the country. 89th won't make fun of you because you're a city boy, and he just let us know what he thinks of people who don't live if a city.

True.

But my 20 years of owning the Cheddarshack does give me just a bit of cred, right? After all, the closest grocery store was 12 miles away.

And...we had DSL!

Method behind the madness. Supposedly, that AT&T location was where some Dominion machines were being sent to be examined.

By whom and for what?

Somebody blows himself up in Nashville, and he isn't even the craziest thing associated with the incident.
