“But he said the driver’s actions “definitely looked deliberate.””

Just as deliberate as the Mass Shooting at the Tennessee Waffle House.

So what radical group recommends renting a van and driving it into crowds of people? Like this has not happened many times around the world.

“I almost have a heart attack,” he said.

“When I came here people told me it was a safe country … the people are friendly. That is why I stay here,” said Bahmeyeh, noting he is originally from Iran.

“Now, I saw the accident, maybe I’ll go back to my country,” he said. “There are not problems like that.”

When are we going to ban assault cars! Anything with more than 4 cylinders can be used as a weapon.

But, the real reason is easy to figure out, isn’t it? Muslim. Rented truck. Driving at people directly on the sidewalk.
Killing them.
Where have we heard this before?

The surname and his face, looks like he might be Turkish, Armenian or Lebanese.. I wonder if he read the Koran.

"She turned me down for a date! For that I'm going to drive a rental van and kill and maim over a dozen innocent people!"

Chads and Stacys is probably a reference to the native Canadian people who live in that neighborhood.

I haven’t thought about the sad bizarre tale of Elliot Rodgers in many years. I suspect his father and siblings have changed their names by now. Was this man today twisted in the same way? If so, he should have just off’ed himself.

This happened in Britain and France, although he Muslims there didn’t whine about not getting dates.
