If it was, the perps have succeeded in causing chaos. Communications are fouled up not only in TN, but also in WV because of outages.

Nashville Airport is closed down because of this.

Thanks for the fun ideas, but I’ll pass on the purposeful ignition source. We live in a forest and the last thing I want to do is start a fire. It would be really difficult to explain to the fire department.

All I want to do is see the white cloud you talked of.

I have shot through partial cans of diesel engine starting fluid. If a can gets dropped on the floor and the nozzle breaks off it’s useless. Again to make it safe for garbage I shoot holes through them. They go around in circles spraying ether. The stink hangs in the air for several minutes.

I also do empty spray paint cans and any other enclosed containers.

My wife thinks I’m a risk taker. I think it takes the boredom out of life.

It is fun for sure!

You think a fire in the woods would be hard to explain? I don’t know. You could just say boomstick, pressurized gas, boom boom, and gesture around then shrug. It’ll probably be ok.

As a disclaimer, I’m not trained in nor have I ever trained in law, or anything resembling it. Based on that statement I would advice incorporating what I said into any kind of defense.

Oh, but have vokda on hand and speak in your best Russian accent. They’ll just think it’s another normal day heh.

Those old bricks (1850?) are scattered everywhere, like Christmas confetti!

A propane bottle will explode if you shoot it. Without an ignition source though it’s a just a big cloud of white gas.

What about a tracer?

Possibly, I mean the theory adds up. Those are hard to get here unless you’re in the army, then just take every 5th round. We did that a lot anyways to avoid grass fires heh.

Knocked out Internet too. I just watched Die Hard 1 and 2, and I was working on this one.

If you mean the Breaking News sidebar that’s been a farce for longer than I care to remember. Has to be run by the stereotypical teenager in mom and dad’s basement. Makes FR look bad. Over and over.

Knowing that they would take it out of Breaking News so posted it in Front Page where it lasted a couple of hours before it was scrubbed.

RV blew up right in front of the smaller ATT building. Housed computer equipment.

RV had driver visible.
Real gun fire. Not part of recording

Antifa is my bet

I stopped watching coverage hours ago. It’s been non-stop since the morning.

Leave it to Epoch Times to take the prize for hyperbole.

Where did those guys go to get their journalism degrees...the Harlequin School of Hyperventilation?

Me, too. The last I heard is that they found human remains (tissue) amongst the wreckage of the RV.

Hopefully, that person’s DNA is in the Database.

I was wondering how long it would take for the “media” to falsely accuse President Trump and his supporters for this. Doesn’t matter that the left is responsible for 99.999% of all terrorism.
