BREAKING: Anthony Warner, who died at the scene based on DNA evidence, has been identified as the suspect in the Nashville Christmas Day bombing, with no indication anyone else was involved, officials say.


Ooft. I'm interested in what his motive was but I doubt it'll be easy to establish if the bomber's dead. I'm so glad nobody died.

Anthony Warner died.

Hardly by accident. His intention appears to have been to try to murder people. I'm not losing any sleep over him.

I’m in agreement with a number of others online about the reporting of this incident.

A brown man called Mohammed would have been called a ‘suicide bomber’ and a ‘terrorist’ before his blood had dried on the pavement.

However, a white man called Anthony gets ‘lone wolf’ and no terrorism accusations in any of the reporting I can see. Why is that I wonder?

It’s a weird one because the van was playing a recorded message to warn people away

Not sure of his aim but it was at a quiet time in a quiet area. Speculation that the building had something to do with it and he was a 5g conspiracist

That’s a classic terrorist trick, it gets more security services in the area. The IRA used to give timed warnings like “You’ve got 30 mins until it blows’ then the bomb would go off on 15, taking out more police/military who were trying to get civilians to safety.

Whatever his motivation, he’s a domestic terrorist.

I'm not being pedantic. A person died. Everything is just speculation at this point.

It was clear what you meant "nobody of any consequence died".

I can't seem to quote you, Hugh, but no matter.

I have zero time for nit-pickers out for an argument.

Let me rephrase my original comment for clarity - I am SO glad nobody innocent was killed.
