    I always wondered how hellish it was to live somewhere like the middle east, I'm glad we're getting to experience their rich culture more and more in the west

    "at least 73 killed and 100 injured" is the most recent count I've seen.

    MSNBC saying it was a lone driver. Police were driving up to it to try to dissuade it from going where it was going and it just accelerated up.

    Its messed up, tho it reminds of an incident in california

    Has any news site revealed the nationality of the driver? Typically news sites get a super erection if it's a middle eastern person, yet nothing said yet.
