BBC and CBS have reported the name, but I've not seen info regarding citizenship or military history.

Np- I saw it on Twitter, but those are not reliable sources. I have not seen a reliable source put that information out. His name is Shamsud Din Jabbar per cnn, nbc, abc and bbc.

I can make it political. The federal government declared that this act, which killed and injured dozens of innocent people, is not terrorism. Meanwhile, the federal government also recently declared the the death of one health insurance CEO is a vile act of terrorism for which they are pursuing the death penalty. The Biden Administration also recently commuted the death sentences of dozens of mass murderers. For the Biden administration, terrorism only occurs if the victim (just one) is a very rich man. How is not political?

It’s political because the political party that will soon be fully running our nation is a wholly owned subsidiary of the gun industry and the NRA. And they want to see stuff like this happening everywhere. They are fueled by spilled blood. They are literally satanic. Guns everywhere. Death everywhere. Live sacrificed to guns. Guns guns guns.

Americans don’t value life. It is like fast fashion. Here today tossed tomorrow.

What if the truck drkver is not an American?

Driver identified as Shamsud Din Jabbar

Because that costs money. I agree it is a good idea, but can't you just picture Elon or Vivek rolling their eyes and incredulously lamenting a line item of $100k (or whatever) for "road obstructions for street festivals"?

No sweetheart. You can’t blame this on an administration that hasn’t taken office yet.

This is all democratic leadership. Take a look and see who runs New Orleans, it isn’t a bunch of MAGAs

NY Times is reporting that the driver/killer is dead

Cops should get a bonus for saving court costs

Family files lawsuit for unlawful killing. No savings there

Guns killing people isn’t political

It sure is political when you have a party in power trying to make sure there’s guns everywhere.

The big part of the story is people were killed by the truck. Two officers were also shot (and luckily seem to be stable).

No, the big part of the story is that gun nutters didn’t even wait 4 hours into 2025 before killing a crowd of people.

If I were pro unregulated second amendment (which I am not), I would be saying that if you want to limit guns you also have to limit cars cuz this guy killed/injured many more with his car.

Car ownership is regulated; you have to get a license, renew it every so often and have insurance. One can get an unlicensed gun via private ownership; you are not required to renew your license nor get any insurance for it.

At minimum, the background check loopholes should be closed, and gun owners should be required to get insurance and renew the license to own every so often.

As a PP pointed out, no form of licensing or registration could have prevented this murderer’s misuse of a vehicle.

What if we made it illegal to kill people with a truck?

Seems like an average joe in the video.

If this is really the guy, it would be interesting to see how he ended up a mass murderer. What a tragedy.

And the truck was apparently rented through a service that allows private individuals to let vehicles short term.
