—There appear to be casualties in Nice, France, after a vehicle reportedly drove into the crowds celebrating Bastille Day.
It is important to report these violent occurrences, but, regardless of the cause, the people should be staged in areas where they are protected from trucks of any kind. Cars for that matter.
I am not waving a flag, but, New York City does a magnificent job in crowd control, closing streets and limiting any issue with backpacks, etc. The people have a great time because they are safe as well as joyful.
The French government loves their people and all these disastrous events are fairly new to their governments. There are too many dangers in our societies to think the worst is over. Protective barriers where people gather should be made safe from even a run away truck if that is what this is.
My sympathies to France and a completely terrible event on a day when celebration is a part of life.

The truck has not exploded. I would think bomb squads would be in the area preparing to examine the truck.
Beautiful cities should have designated areas where people can be safe and their city safe.
