Man I hope they get the form scripts mixed up and start telling us how whites are a people of peace and this doesn't represent all whites. Then they tell us about the insidious hatred from Muslims that's permeating our country

The van crushed in front of a kiosk and the man ran away.
*It's in catalan but this is the live stream from the local tv LINK
*2 armed in a bar "LUNA DE ISTANBUL" with hostages police already in negotiations. Police say there's no attackers inside. Video shows otherwise.
*Spanish media confirms this is a terrorist attack.
*Police attempting to find the terrorist, video from the Raval (zone next to the Ramblas): LINK
*2 white vans were rented from same people news said, trying to find the second before anything bad happen.

This is the actual lede from the updated AP/Yahoo news article:

quote:
BARCELONA, Spain (AP) — A white van jumped up onto a sidewalk and sped down a pedestrian zone Thursday in Barcelona's historic Las Ramblas district, swerving from side to side as it plowed into tourists and residents. Authorities said 12 people were killed and 80 were wounded, 15 of them seriously, in what they called a terror attack.
The afternoon attack in the northeastern Spanish city was the country's deadliest since 2004, when al-Qaida-inspired bombers killed 192 people in coordinated attacks on Madrid's commuter trains.

About 20 police just tackled and arrested a guy near the scene.

I guess I'm missing something, but I've been out of this thread for a bit. Why is that so funny?

You've got to love how the media initially states these types of situations. Reading this, you would assume the van started itself and decided to just mow down some folks.

I mean, they called it a terrorist attack, implying terrorist were involved. If you're saying they are implying the "white" van acted alone....................ok.

No they are trying to influence how you think and feel about these events.

I mean, I agree MSM has been shaky, but this is some textbook reaching here.

Wolf trying to make connections between Barcelona and Charlottesville is something an anchor shouldn't do.

Read it like you're 8 years old. Envision what the article is describing. Give the car animation, and facial expressions as it's carrying out this heinous attack.

Giving his family history re: the Holocaust on Tuesday afternoon after Trump's press conference was similarly bad and shameful.
