Blast may have been on 2nd Avenue near the ATT building off Commerce. More details at noon.

Spoils our bit of White Christmas.

Several homes had their windows blown out.

Sad news to hear.

No one wins anything by guessing who was responsible. Let's wait until there are some substantial facts available.

I'm happy that the human toll seems to be minimal. I'm really hoping that they are able to save all of the structures. It would be a damn shame if that area lost some of it's historic architecture.

I'm also a bit curious about the location and timing of the suspected bombing. Not a time and location if you are looking for mass casualties (on this date at this time). Not exactly a symbolic target. Makes me wonder about the motive.

The RV played an audio countdown warning people to "evacuate now." Odd

You may be on to something as there were reports of shots fired prior to the explosion to perhaps draw law enforcement into the area.

Here's a video of the moment leading up to the explosion. You can hear the warning coming from the RV.
"If you can hear this message, evacuate now."

Headphone warning, the explosion is loud so watch the volume.

The announcement to evacuate for 15 minutes straight kind of debunks that theory.

Whoever it was, they wanted to make a statement instead of hurt people. They picked early in the morning, when nearby business are closed. They made an evacuation announcement for several minutes. It will take some time, but I wouldn't be surprised if law enforcement finds or receives a message later from someone taking responsibility or supporting a cause. Too much work went into this to remain a mystery and not wanting to hurt anyone.

This isn't in alignment with anything related to George Soros funded BLM.

Speaking of that.... It seemed to be next to the windowless communications building between 2nd and 3rd. I'm not sure what they still do in there, but conceivably that would be a much better target than empty bars.
