It looks like a rented Home Depot flatbed truck was intentionally driven on a bike path in downtown New York City killing six and injuring nine people. The driver then climbed from the vehicle, after he plowed into a bus. Some news organizationa are reporting that the driver yelled out something rhyming with Aloha Snackbar and waving two weapons.
Witnesses are reporting that the weapons appear to have been an Airsoft or paintball gun and a BB gun. No gun shots were heard until NYPD opened fire and took the driver down.

I bet he was one of those radical Mennonites…
The Amish already have an (assault)truck ban.
EVEN the Amish Anarchists?
They will run you down with a mustang.
Pinto?
Amish Anarchist Suicide Bombers drive Pintos.
They will nail you with that horse and buggy though.
Nah, it’s those extremist Presbyterians again.
He was a WalMart greeter.
Those Mormons are getting frisky
No, Keep your finger on the trigger…. never believe a mooslum, they always lie, taqyiya.. lying to the infidels. it is allowed.
Remember, there is no god but Allah, the sun rises & sets in a mud puddle, you’d have to be retarded to believe that shit…let alone 72 virgins.
Hawaiians? Wasn’t 0bama enough damage?
Or Kenyans…his daddy was a deadbeat, liberal white-woman impregnating alcoholic….but “dreams of my father” book made that all much nicer
Diversity is our strength.
Was let into th country under a “diversity visa”.
Another completely preventable terror attack.
Dang Lutherans. Time to ban trucks.
Just Lutherans Celebrating Reformation Day!(Beer and strudel) 500 Years and counting. BUT: 1. This is another Free-Fire-Zone Attack. 2. We have a fix for this and it is the Militia. Before the US Army there was the Militia and this attack is why it exist.
Did they find a jello casserole in the truck?
The Angry Amish again?
Or a Battling Baptist?
A Murdering Methodist?
An Enraged Episcopalian?
A Pissed Pentecostal?
Inquiring minds want to know?
Surely he voted for Trump in the last election.
Seriously, praying that the injured all get better, and the families of those killed will be ok.
You left out Amish Anarchists and Marauding Mennonites, GB!
Yeah, it’s either OldTimer’s or distractions of work – I couldn’t remember all of the possibilities, API.
Mea Culpa.
Presbyterians – gotta be!
Mean Mormons
ALOHA SnackBar???? Oh my stars I think I peed myself a little and have stomach cramps from laughing so hard. I skeered my cat too. lol
Damn Moonies again
ARE YOU SURE it wasn’t Hare Krishnas?
Bugs Bunny denies any knowledge….
Ha! I remember them at airports when I was AD. Hard telling whether they were peace chicks or Manson followers.
God be with the victims.
In the meantime, I think we need to start systematically registering all trucks, licensing truck operators, and closing this “Home Depot” loop hole so that trucks can only be procured from licensed and bonded dealers.
Yes, WE NEED TRUCK CONTROL LAWS for the common good and safety, THINK OF OUR CHILDREN!! And who needs a full size truck with High Capacity Horsepower?
Nobody needs an F-350. An F-150 should suffice.
No one should own a Ford truck on general principle

API, that needed a spew alert. Especially the BUICK one, never heard that before!
Another for FIAT – Feeble Italian Attempt at Transportation
Seems i heard on a while back for Pontiac.. but it was rather racist, so I won’t post it here
I recall that one as well, it’s best left on the trash heap of history. Truth be told, it was told to me by a black man who thought it was absolutely hilarious.

All our ambulances are Ford F-450s. Of course we have a fleet of mechanics, too.
Yeah, our are too.. that Powerchoke diesel has been nothing but problems.
Well in my truck grabbing scheme, of course the government is exempt.
The government is always exempt from their own rules.
“I’d rather push a Ford than drive a Chevy.”
Ford pickups are the most popular trucks in Texas. Texans know a real hardworking truck.
If it saves just one life…
The big questions are, did the truck have an AUTOMATIC transmission??? and a HIGH CAPACITY fuel tank???
Even worse, a Bump Fire Semi Automatic Transmission, OH THE HORROR!!!
It had a true silencer too…
Outlaw silencers on vehicles so people will get out of the way !!!
Think of the children !!!
We must fight the “Muffler Menace”!!
The only way to stop a bad guy with a truck is with a good guy with a barrier.
loud pipes save lives
Suppressors allow follow-up shots as needed.
Glass packs make them even louder!!
DeBlasio is using the incident to appear mayoral rather than tell us what’s going on. Next up is the Legacy Governor.
DeBlasio doesn’t have a friggin’ clue what to do or say other than self-promote.
NYC got the mayor they voted for. They are welcome to ze.
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/10/31/nypd-responding-to-reports-shots-fired-in-lower-manhattan.html
Update now on Fox News is saying 8 are dead, instead of 6 and the shooter shouted “Allahu Akbar”.
NYPD said it was an act of a cowardly terrorist who was a Lone Wolf.
Thoughts and prayers to those who lost their lives as well as to their families and those injured.
Which was what ISIS asked for (Lone Wolf attacks).
I wonder how many phone calls were directed at the NYPD from the Mayor and Governor’s office to make sure everyone was in alignment.
I wonder how soon we’ll hear DeBlabbio and his liberal ilk to NOT pass further judgement on muzzies as well?
Somehow they will blame this on Trump and the Russians? We need to run them all out of the country now!!
“This act was intended to break our spirit,” says some NYC official. Oh, it’s da mayor. He sounded really, really stupid when he said it.
No, these acts don’t do anything to my spirit except make me mad. Hope I live long enough to see us take these fools down instead of inviting them here to continue their destruction of our society. No, we are not perfect, but we are historically the most free society in history. Each new law, each new level of bureaucracy reduces our freedom.
I love the Drudge headline: “Middle Eastern man arrested after police shot him in ass…”
sj: Read the same thing on Drudge…and then heard on Fox that he was shot in the abdomen or his leg. Makes sense Drudge would comment he was shot in the ass.
Shooting at a school bus with 2 children injured. My heart goes out to all the victims.
He is being depicted in the media as a “Lone Wolf”. Those type of people scare me. ?
Whoops..the sick individual who now has a Scrabble name ran the rental truck into the school bus, not shoot the school bus as I erroreously wrote (my bad).
Heard he may be from Uzbekistan.
The term lone wolf should not be used if one converts and commits themselves to issis. They are then issis militants doing their trade in the U.S.
Assholes have feelings too
Bradley Manning “likes” this statement.
Lone Wolves sure love their aloe bath bar.
News video shows him running around in traffic. Sure glad no one ran him over /Sarc
If only someone had been a CHL holder…
DeBlasio would have blamed him for shooting innocent terrorists.
And to those NFL Losers who kneel during the National Athem because of “Police Brutality?”
Unless they are that narcisstic, bet they would have 2nd thoughts of kneeling again if one of their love ones was killed by that Scumbag. If it wasn’t for our Brave Men and Women in Blue taking that dirtbag down, more innocent lives might have been taken.
So what is next…Truck Control?
What does this rant has to do with the article???
How about you answering that question for me.
And while you’re at it, go ahead and conduct critiques on others on TAH who may “rant” as well.
Agree Pat. Never saw your post as a rant. At least no more of a rant than any of the rest of us.
Thank you, sj, for your kind words. Glad to see you read Drudge as well.??
It is always a joy reading “rants” on TAH whether they be one-liners or paragraphs, funny or serious.
Soooo…GO ARMY! BEAT NAVY! ?
BTW, found out “rant” is also a type of dance step usually performed in clogs. Learned something new again.??
Please to bugger off..AP has some intelligent posts, many more than you
Thank you, 1610desig, for your support. ?
Now I just need to dust off my cloggers and “rant” away…
If that was a rant then it’s a pretty weak attempt.
SCREW THE NFL, All of us Vets have signed THAT “Blank Check” and HOW DAMNED MANY of those who kneel and sit during the playing of our National Anthem HAVE EVER risked their lives in harm’s way in risk of having their remains shipped Stateside in a Flag-Draped coffin? FUCK THE NFL!!!
API: Yep…and support our Brave Men and Women in Blue… Salute.
I wish more Muslims are imported because of activist judges. They are the religion of peace and will put a stop to this.
You, or the U.S.A are getting more country shopper, low I.Q, primitive refugee’s Muslim’s from Australia’s offshore detention centres courtesy of an Obama-Turdball agreement.
Australia will no doubt receive twice as many unwanted immigrants or persons from the U.S.A and all probably from GITMO or supermax prisons.
Hopefully Trump’s extreme vetting of these un-documented illegal arrivals that were trying to scam their way into Australia will minimise the impact, but I’m sure Trump will send an equal amount of rubbish our way.
There are another 600 or so on Nauru but they are refusing to leave the recently closed detention centre because they are scared, apparently the local tribesmen haven’t tasted “long pig” in a while & they are hungry for a BBQ.
“the local tribesmen haven’t tasted “long pig” in a while & they are hungry for a BBQ” – that is gruesome but funny.
Some of the ‘migrants’ moving from Africa to Europe are landing in Sicily and trashing the place. It is so bad that the Gardia (pohlease people) have been turning to the local Mafiosa for help. Who’d-a thunk it?
(N.B., that was the report back in the summer. May have changed since then.)
There’s hand wringing on the news over why Home Depot rented him this truck. The same assholes would be irate over profiling if they had refused to do so!
My friend who is an FDNY EMS CAPT. sent me real time texts that FDNY banged in a 2nd alarm for counterterroism task force standby C.O.D. I/C. 8 fatalities so far. Original was 6 DOA’S, 1 critical and 2 yellow tags. fatalities usually climb during these fluid investigations.
Okay, the headlines on Drudge say he’s been identified as an Uzbek National and he was running around shouting “aloha snackbar” BUT WE DO NOT need to judge ALL Amish Anarchists by his actions.
Aloha Snackbar again! Guy is living in Tampaand is originally from Uzbekistan. Nothing to see here! Move Along, Move Along.
Love how Mr. Mayor is up there saying the Police have done a great job! Funny, he was too busy sucking some assholes in Germany to attend and officers funeral.
Never a sinkhole or a stand your ground lead pill beneficiary when you need one.
Guessing our own MCPO(NYC) is occupied right now. Salute to he and his colleagues in getting to the bottom of this.
And the terrorist is from the west coast of I hate to say it-TAMPA FLORIDA. Now a terrorist investigation resulting from the way the attack was planned and he also shouted alla akbar to the LEO who shot him. Turns out the guy had a pellet gun. Sounds like suicide by cop so he could make out with those 72 virgins. I thought these guys screwed sheep among other animals. Very strange.
MAY HE spend all of eternity wit NO LESS THAN 72 clones of my Ex-Wife!!!
Here are just a few of the similarities among New York drivers for hire:
All stink
All have facial hair (including women)
All speak a foreign language
Bare Footed
Refined goat humping technique
Easy-to-remember names
Seasonal clothing fashions never change
The longest and hardest thing on both males and females as third grade
For a comedic take but sadly true & pointedly accurate insight into this “religion of peace” I recommend viewing SyeTen’s Youtube clips. Start with the one titled ” Join islam” or “I like driving”.
You need a keyboard safety (no coffee) warning before viewing.
Another terrorist brought here under that lovely diversity program. How much more of this are the sane among us supposed to put up with????
A few hundred are supposed to be placed down the road from me. So far, our questions about little things like “Who vetted them?” have stalled the move. At least our community is small enough that our extant diversity presents a united front – and we all pretty much know each other. The pitiful thing is that it is the Christian churches who are pushing it, against the advice of a wide variety of other faiths, and the Christians who are paying attention.
According to the progs, we can never have enough “diversity.” They especially want to import more mooselimbs that want to destroy us and everything this country used to stand for.
A Scrabble challenge for Claw:
Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov
The name of that scumbag.
What a POOP STAIN!!!
A little late on reporting, but here goes:
Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov (WRT) 50×2= 100.
A triple digit mental midget in Name Scrabble (Home Version).
Welcome to the big leagues, Dumbass.
Make the vehicle drivers unionize and this stuff would stop immediately
The biggest tragedy here is that the LVF has pulled their anti Ed Gillespie advertisement.
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/12/01/democratic-group-pulls-ad-targeting-virginia-governor-hopeful-ed-gillespies-supporters.html
Yep. That ad didn’t last long.
Not one to judge, but he probably wasn’t saved
I just read that he was an Uber driver and Uber is right on top of this. They announced that they are suspending him.
Can we suspend him, from a lamppost?
For 48 hours, while they review all the facts.
Uber on !!
Not to belabor a point, but who stopped this coward in his tracks?
A good guy with a gun.
Courtesy of Fox, just watched some asshole NYC Pol saying “we must not politicize this” followed by demanding tighter laws on “assault weapons”.
How does someone that stupid cross streets undamaged?
I would propose that if everyone in the vicinity had been carrying a concealed weapon, the death count may have been lower.
