A powerful explosion rocked downtown Nashville early Christmas morning. Reports say a parked recreational vehicle exploded and caused damage to surrounding buildings.

According to local news WKRN, the explosion occurred at 6:30 am Friday around Second Avenue and Broadway near Commerce Street.

Saw that. When I first saw it they said foul play was not suspected but now they're saying it was intentional and ATF and FBI are being called in.

Message was telling people to stay away.
Terrorists usually go for max civilian body count. The timing and the message of stay away in my mind more than likely rules out the usual  terrorist suspects.

Quote
Witnesses told investigators they heard gunshots early in the morning and a message coming from an RV parked in the street warning anyone in the area to evacuate before beginning to count down to an explosion. Police have confirmed that the RV was broadcasting a message. Video posted to YouTube appears to capture the reported warning message seconds before the blast. Warning, some may find the below video disturbing:

If they were targeting the building why was the RV parked in the middle of the street? Why the three rounds of gunfire minutes apart an hour before the RV went boom?

It actually might be, for once, right wing violence.  Big might, I still can't picture the goal they would be trying to achieve with such a localized and specific hit on AT&T.  If there's a bunch more as specific it might signal something more organized, but sample size 1 here doesn't help.

Fired/laidoff /H1b'd exemloyee seems likely.  

Way too low/avoiding collateral to really consider false flag shenanigans.

Insurance fraud or some sort of scam requiring the untimely destruction of company assets is plausible.

Evidence destruction is possible.  Exactly what sort of hardware just got crispied?

Post by: 230RN on December 25, 2020, 03:06:40 PM
Any radiation involved?  Can't imagine a dirty bomb where there's such an involved warning system.  The later police pullback was what prompted my question.  And "dirty" doesn't necessarily mean "nuclear-dirty."

I suppose even if the van was stolen, there ought to be plenty of serialized fragments (like from the tape recorder involved, e.g.) to start tracking down purchasing history.

Looking at that still, I think it was taken when the RV was still driving to its final parking spot.  It looks like there is someone in the driver's seat.

A minor sidebar to this, perhaps,  but my I-phone is on AT&T service and I notice it says "no service"  on the screen.  This attack seems to have taken down some but not all of AT&T service in the local region.   My sister also had no service but oddly, my brother in law (also on AT&T)  did have service.

As much as it pains me to say this, it seems the only one who *may* not be speculating at this point is the mayor. Either that or he is as dumb as a sack of hair. I don't know about him so I will not speculate which he is. ;)

Quote
Speaking with assembled media later in the morning, Mayor John Cooper said the area was filled with 'a lot of broken glass and insulation that has been blown up into trees'. He added that broken mains were sending water flooding out into the street.

'It looks like a bomb went off,' he stated.

Hearing rumblings that this was an attack on AT&T based web sites/access, which includes some financial and credit card businesses.  No real evidence, from what I can see.  More speculation based on the location of the bombing and who AT&T hosts websites for.

The FBI is now searching a house in the suburbs in which an RV was parked. They now think it may have been a suicide bomber and they are not actively pursuing any other suspects.

Post by: RoadKingLarry on December 26, 2020, 10:25:19 PM
I looked it up on google maps. While I don't have direct knowledge of what's in that building my educated guess based on the size and location is that it is a major/critical Central Office, probably very similar to the location I work at. I've heard reports on facebook from people I know in the area that 911 service has been severely impacted and there are significant cell phone and internet service disruptions.
While "diversity" has always been a big deal in the telecommunications world there will always be a few critical choke points, that location is very likely one of them, stuff has to start somewhere. If the original equipment can't be restored to service in a reasonable amount of time rerouting will be possible but it will take a little bit of time depending on the level of damage if any to the outside plant infrastructure, most of which is below ground.
Again, educated guess but the types of equipment and service run through that location could be everything from POTS to 400Gbps internet backbone fiber services and everything in between supporting 911, cell service FAA stuff and about anything you can name. I haven't seen any pictures of damage to the AT&T building so no guess on how bad they may have been hurt.
Title: Re: Explosion downtown Nashville
Post by: Lennyjoe on December 26, 2020, 10:39:31 PM
Someone posted this on social media.  Time will tell if this is fact or fiction.

AT&T got a contract to do forensic audit on Dominion voting machines and those machines were being moved to Nashville this past week.
The former owner of the AT&T building in Nashville, William Kennard, is a board member for Cerberus Capital Management and AT&T.... He also was Bill Clinton’s FCC chair, and Obama’s Ambassador to the EU.
Dominion voting is owned by Cerberus Capital Management.... Cerberus is run by Staple Street Execs. Joe Bidens Brother in Law, Steven Owens, is the cofounder of Staple Street Execs along with William Kennard (mentioned above).
Super Computer in TN was connected to the AT&T internet in NASHVILLE.... yesterday evening the Cumberland river cooling system was compromised due to internet outage and Supercomputer fried.....
If you don’t know, “Kraken” is a reference to a supercomputer former prosecuter, Sidney Powell, has been talking about.
So, the explosion “just happened” to be at the AT&T location where they “just so happen” to control the cooling system for the super computer and house the dominion voting machines and drives for forensic audit...
Does it make sense now why no lives were lost? Does it make sense now why the FBI task lead couldn’t even put together a coherent sentence in the press conference yesterday? Does it make sense why the mayor was making light of the situation, almost laughing yesterday?

What if this is true? 🤔
Title: Re: Explosion downtown Nashville
Post by: RoadKingLarry on December 26, 2020, 10:48:54 PM
I'm gonna give that a "possible but not probable" rating.

That kind of stuff is designed to shut down on uncorrected overtemp before it cooks. While anything is possible that part tickles my
"not too likely" reflex.
A bunch of the rest of it don't pass the smell test either.

Way too many easier and less dramatic ways to disrupt internet service to single locations.

To recap:

The suspect is a 63 year old male. Works in IT. Enjoys camping. Owns a RV. Concerned about government spying.  Worried about advanced cell phone technology.  Bomb goes off outside of a cell phone technology center.

I wonder what will come out regarding his ethnicity and political beliefs.

Probably not.  We routinely get LTE phone service here.  Their antennas are close to the house.  Right now we have a strong signal but at the lowest data rate service.
I'll have to check, but as far as I know, the Nashville center is the closest major AT&T facility.

The person who set off a bomb in a recreational vehicle in downtown Nashville Christmas morning was likely motivated by a desire to damage a nearby AT&T switching station, the mayor of Tennessee’s biggest city said Sunday.

This guy should become a telephone psychic once his gig at Mayor run out. He definitely has the knack.

[Verse 1]
When you're alone and life is making you lonely
You can always go downtown
When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know, downtown

[Pre-Chorus]
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

[Chorus]
So go downtown
Things will be great when you're downtown
No finer place for sure, downtown
Everything's waiting for you

[Verse 2]
Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
There are movie shows downtown
Maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close downtown

[Pre-Chorus]
Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova
You'll be dancing with 'em too before the night is over
Happy again
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

[Chorus]
So go downtown
Where all the lights are bright, downtown
Waiting for you tonight, downtown
You're gonna be alright now, downtown

[Instrumental Break w/ Backing Vocals]
Downtown
Downtown

[Pre-Chorus]
And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along
So maybe I'll see you there
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares

[Chorus]
So go downtown
Things will be great when you're downtown
Don't wait a minute more, downtown
Everything is waiting for you, downtown

[Outro]
Downtown (downtown)
Downtown (downtown)
Downtown (downtown)
Downtown (downtown)

Unconfirmed I should say

Nashville bombing: Anthony Quinn Warner was reported to police for ‘making bombs in RV parked at his home’ in 2019
https://www.the-sun.com/news/2036056/nashville-bomb-anthony-quinn-warner-police-warned-rv/

Now believe this story to be bull unless I see it from another source.
At the time I didn't make the mental connection between the tabloid and the website.

All we really know is that something that appears to be an explosion happened at the location.

I'm assuming that can be confirmed by multiple eyewitnesses.

All the rest of the "information" is coming from less than reputable sources like the FBI etc.

Was he still alive just before the boom? Or was he already dead and just there for a DNA sample?

I believe they can establish a general familial relation pretty quickly,  but a specific relationship (father-son,  mother-daughter)  takes longer.  I suspect a familial relationship match was used,  then process of elimination.

They used his mother which made it quick and easy to go straight to what they needed to find. One of the news reports yesterday reported his mother saying they came to her for a sample.

Interesting that the perpetrator warned people nearby of the bomb, and tried to minimize loss of life.

Reminds me of the bombing tactics used by the IRA. 

Quote
The IRA was blamed for the Abercorn Restaurant bombing in March 1972, when a bomb exploded without warning killing two women and injuring many people.  Due to negative publicity after the Abercorn bombing, the IRA introduced a system of telephoned coded warnings to try and avoid civilian casualties while still causing the intended damage to properties and the economy.  Civilian deaths were counter-productive to the IRA, as they provided the British with propaganda coups and affected recruitment and funding.

This is why you could talk me into accepting the 5G theory. He wanted to send some kind of message about "the 5G conspiracy" to, in his twisted way, help, not harm people. The song he chose to play, if you read the lyrics, certainly would explain why he chose to suicide rather do the job and avoid capture. He seemed to be yearning for "A better place".

Though I have to admit that I would like to buy a lot of tinfoil stock, because I could easily sit here and come up with all kinds of conspiracy theories about him perhaps being tricked or coerced into doing his job by "The Man", "The Illuminati", foreign actors, and a host of other things, just because 2020. :)

The sources told ABC News that Anthony Quinn Warner, 63, may have been motivated, at least in part, by “paranoia over 5G technology,” but that they also found writings that contained ramblings about assorted conspiracy theories, including the idea of shape-shifting reptilian creatures that appear in human form and attempt world domination.

All this 5G conspiracy talk is funny as hell.
There is a "conspiracy" afoot with 5G but it has nothing to do with making people sick or mind control or any of that goofy crap.
The real conspiracy about 5G is that it doesn't work like they told us it will, it will never work like they told us it will and unless you live in a fair sized metropolitan area you are not likely to see 5G on your phone in the foreseeable future.

Considering that it was Throckmorton who dropped the dime on him, I'm much more inclined to believe that the Nashville PD was just too lazy to ask a judge for a search warrant, and the "We thought Throckmorton was his lawyer" is the cover story.
