    This is the follow up to the story on Turning Point USA as a registered student organization at the U. of Tennessee a few hours ago. /S
Let’s hope not.
Just a coincidence.

    It’s devastating actually
People felt impact in leaves etc 17 miles away
Likely lots of deaths
And folks from families not financially suited to lose their shot callers

    I was out playing ball with my dog and I heard that. I’m about 50 miles away as the crow flies. I thought it was thunder but the clouds were wrong. Then I heard what sounded like distant small arms fire. I have neighbors around who shoot, some shoot tannerite but that had to have been a truckload.
didn’t think much more about it.
RIP.

    I hope the families get compensated.
The guys and gals dead hopefully didn’t feel much.
It’s those left behind that have the pain of losing someone, the financial hardship of losing a bread earner plus burying a spouse, a family with a missing parent...

    It doesn’t look like they will find the 19 that are missing. There is nothing left.

    Right off state route 220. It is devastatingly bad. I don’t see how anyone at the facility walked away.
