They are now treating it as an act of terror but the original statement was that it was not an act of terrorism. This changed after the screenshot was taken.
EDIT: Below is a screenshot of reports at the time, before the FBI changed their tune.
I have a feeling that after this, they will install those retractable giant pilons they use in places like government buildings rather than a parked patrol car. It is sad that it takes a tragedy to get the gears moving.
You are being downvoted because you commented without any knowledge. Bourbon street is only open to traffic during the day, and mainly for deliveries. The suspect swerved around the traffic barriers, while shooting at the police.

I know the situation isn't funny but I chuckled nonetheless.
You're right. My mistake.
Two spaces after a period was the way typography was taught and graded through the late nineties and maybe later. On a keyboard my thumb automatically double taps the space bar after a period. No thought, just reflex. On a phone, I never type a period. My keyboard app automatically inserts a period after a double space.
At the time the N.O. Mayor's office was arguing that it was not a terrorist attack. The FBI is now looking into it as a terror attack. Things change. It happens.
EDIT: Sorry, busy morning and got it turned around. Mayor's office said it wasn't terrorism, FBI said it wasn't but has since changed their tune.
I feel guilty everytime I think about it, but I genuinely enjoyed 2020 for the most part.

Never in my life have I ever had a more excessive New Year's than the one my wife and I celebrated in Las Vegas. West Coast new years is indeed the best new years.
Having tried both, I would much rather the Corn Dog.
...and it could be many years before your death.
Soooo...a typical New Year's resolution then.
Is this what they are referring to when they say they want to "make America great again"?
The word is pronounced Ah-ceh-ro-lah, not Ay-sir-oh-law.
Before anyone gets mad at H1-B workers, you need to understand that a large percentage of them are being exploited to a sickening degree too.
This should surprise no one.
