Ban high capacity trucks.
“This is the deadliest attack ever,” police official Ibrahim Mohamed told AFP.
...Following the attack, President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed declared three days of mourning.
...The Somali government blamed the attack on Al-Shabaab, an Islamist terror group that has fought a long running insurgency against Mogadishu.
I’m shocked.
If you notice very carefully these attacks never quite get out of the news.One ends a news cycle and another takes its place.This one seems horrendous one can only image what kind of explosives it took to do this kind of damage.
Bump stocks, bump stocks, guns, guns, guns, splutter, splutter, why are we taking so long to ban bump stocks and guns, and guns, and guns, and guns...
... oh, wait...
... this was a truck bomb...
... nevermind.
Looking at video of it, the bomb must have weighed many tons. It looks like much more destruction than the Murrah building bomb, which was about 2.5 tons; this one might have been the size of a semi.
The harder we make it to blow stuff up in the United States, The more they can and will blow each other to Kingdom come across the globe.
Any where but here, Jihadi !
Thanks for posting. Horrible. Condolences to families and friends of the innocent victims. Evil on this planet...ALERT!
