A truck crashed into a crowd of revelers Thursday night during a Bastille Day celebration in the southern French town of Nice, killing at least 73 people and wounding dozens of others.
The celebrations quickly turned to chaos as the truck ploughed through a crowd at the Promenade des Anglais during the end of a fireworks show.
The driver was shot dead by police, said Pierre-Henry Brandet, a spokesman for French Interior Ministry.
Sylvie Toffin, a press officer with the local prefecture, said the truck “hit several people on a long trip” down the sidewalk near Nice’s Palais de la Méditerranee, a building which fronts the beach.
We should probably import tens of thousands of refugees who despise our culture.
Hey, Hillary is all for it. The Religion of Peace manages to kill the innocent once more.

I did not know they had Amish in France.

"Let them fear for having awakened a sleeping giant and filled him with a terrible resolve."
Words we may have to say.

Hey it's their right to come here all they want and it's not our right as citizens to tell them otherwise. /s

If we vote for Hillary we will really have a target rich environment.

"The Truck" did it. Only mention that the poor driver was shot.

A long time ago, I was with a high school tour group in Europe. July 4 we were in Rome, and street vendors had some watermelon. We had a small picnic near the Coliseum that afternoon, but the day did not seem complete without fireworks in the evening. Later, we were in Paris on July 14 and got to see the Bastille Day fireworks near the Seine. A special memory, forgotten until today.
"Lafayette, we are here!"
