A day after a terrorist mowed down dozens of people celebrating Bastille Day in the coastal French city of Nice, investigators dug into the life of the man they say was the killer: A 31-year-old delivery driver and Nice resident who was born in Tunisia.

Authorities said Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel drove a rented, refrigerated truck weighing about 20 tons into crowds along a roughly 2-kilometer stretch of Promenade des Anglais on Thursday night, killing 84 people -- including 10 children and adolescents -- and injuring 202 others.

The attack ended when police shot into the truck, killing Bouhlel, French prosecutor François Molins said Friday.

"Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel" --- What a surprise -- NOT.

At least they killed him. But what a tragedy that he killed and injured so many.

He picked a gun free zone until the police intervened.

And why did he deliberately drive a truck into a crowd?

In the theater massacre, it is reported many of the women victims had been bayoneted between their legs.

Others had been disemboweled —while alive— and other had had their eye or eyes gouged out.

I saw 2 clowns on CNN explaining to Anderson Cooper (is that right, or is it Cooper Anderson) how this all happened because the guy had mental issues and not because he was a muslim. How they could spend all that time on camera saying all that and not breaking out in laughter was beyond me.

This happened and yet huffpo had an outraged headline earlier about how Newt had lost his mind wanting tough screening for Muslims. They’ll never get it. Obama and company did a real number in eight years. Rush’s hopes were dashed. He didn’t fail. Trump is the only one who can bring sanity right now, but he has a hard mountain to climb. Please God I hope he prevails.

Not just CNN. I was watching Fox News last night and Shepard Smith kept going out of his way to say the truck driver was a French citizen from Nice, kept discounting the fact of him being from Tunisia and saying it was a French man. Well Shepard, the fact is that the killer had dual citizenship for both France and Tunisia, was born in Tunisia, and his allegiance and ties were to muslims in Tunisia. Shep is a clown also.

I can’t believe someone would rent a truck to a “lone woof” with mental issues.
