It’s horrible and the gun haters think that guns that only can kill I pray the individuals recover without any horrible outcomes

[doyleblackwell]

When are we going to see a ban on these assault U-Haul’s?

[JacobMarley-rn]

Wondering if we should ban all rentable trucks immediately? Just a thought.

[charlenemocksing]

New York is in a state of crisis almost each & everyday. No end in sight.

Truth of the matter is anything can be used as a weapon as long as the intent is there

[giachellogene]

Shouldn't we go after the assault car industry?It's really not right that ILLEAGAL assault vehicle drivers are able to get their hands on such a dangerous weapon!!!

[stoopstified]

Damn, ..we have to outlaw these " military assault" U-Haul trucks .

[Bart-dgqv]

We need to limit the number of tires in those vans. We can't have hi capacity 6 tires vans running the City streets.

[jameshigginbottom]

Rampage? More like a cop chase gone bad. Please BAN ALL TRUCKS EVERWHERE we must stop the mayhem.

[stephenduke]

Wouldn't surprise me if rudy guiliani was the driver

I like the policy of the IDF: neutralize the assailant. Immediate justice. And then the home of the terrorist is destroyed.
