IS already claimed responsibility.

I'm almost surprised no one has pulled this off earlier. A truck ought to be relatively easy to get, and can do insane damage in a crowd. Also, I don't think there's almost any way this is not a terrorist attack. The criminal attack things just doesn't make any sense (why would a criminal want to attack a crowd?), and I doubt there would be this many victims if this wasn't intentional.

Anyway, this is another sad incident. Sadly I think we're going to be getting a lot more of them, and it seems the authorities are almost powerless to stop them. As far as I know, France has pretty permissive intelligence laws, but those are obviously not enough to stop these attacks.

Wow, this is turning out to be worse than the Istanbul airport attack.

France has always been one of the most efficient when it comes to prevent terrorist attacks, but you can't be safe forever. Integrism is rising on the very french territory. An inside threat is not easy to prevent, sadly.

This is a European problem, not just a French one. Extremism is rising throughout Europe, and so far they have failed to control it. Stop mass-immigration, promote assimilation, and start fixing up problems in their societies!

I know, I live there, I was just staying on the french example because we were talking about France

Time for leftists to post #prayforfrance, change their profile pics to the French flag and ignore the root cause

And people wondered why brexit happened

So much this and don't forget the "Don't generalize all Muslims, you Islamophobe" virtue signalling.
