This Was a Test?

One of my many jobs was with a regional carrier for Delta Airlines. Part of my initial training was on assisting passengers with disabilities; we did not help a deaf passenger, we helped a passenger with deafness.

The events in Nashville over the weekend were not, in my opinion, a suicide bombing. What kind of suicide bomber warns people, and plans the attack for a day when very few people will be on the streets? Suicide bombings often target large gatherings of people, such as marketplaces or rallies.

If this was a suicide, it was more akin to someone setting themselves on fire, but what if this wasn't a suicide at all? Could this have been a "dry run"?

The building targeted was a AT&T facility and services, including 5G, were affected. There was another RV at the attacker's home and he did have an electronics background. Did he volunteer or was he put up to be a guinea pig to see what damage would be done? I would be alert for copycat attacks on other switching centers or even pedestals that serve neighborhoods.

Whether or not this was a final act of an individual, or a test will not be determined by the FBI or other authorities. It may be up to the activist community to find the answers.
