77 dead. For 15 years or so I have worried about simple attacks, for example, taking a bike chain or whatever and locking all the doors of a packed club, then going inside and killing 100 percent of the folks trapped inside, or barreling vehicles through crowds. In particular i always imagined a person commandeering a bus at Columbus Circle, and driving down Broadway through Times Square and herald square just mashing folks on the sidewalk by the thousands. These kinds of attacks always seemed inevitable, so easy, able to do with one person and minimal organization and equipment. And now it looks like they are finally happening. If only one single person in New York drives through crowds in midtown, or even outside Yankee stadium or whatever, our world changes again.
Has the president (notice, small p) come out with a press conference to lead the free world against radical Islam?
Some eyewitness interviewed on cnn just now and he ended it by wondering how anyone could act in this manner. The international news anchor simply said no one knows why. Well I'll fill you in. There was some fucking idiot several hundred years ago who broke a book called the Quran. The book urges its followers to kill anyone who doesn't follow the teachings of said book.
Right. They also sometimes say "we don't yet know the motive" Right. Well I fucking know the motive the first second I hear what happened. And I also know what the killers last words were, and with a few chances I can maybe even guess the killers name.
I am a HUGE Tour de France guy. I have been worried all year about some ass doing something there, in Paris, on the Champs Elysees, at the end. God, I hope I am wrong, but this shit does not make me feel any better!
