Vehicles are the go to weapon now since they are easily obtainable, potential to cause lots of death, injury, and mayhem as guns and also are easily masked with normal everyday traffic.

They may become the weapon. In a sense, if one can pick a good from the bad, they may cause less deaths than bombs and automatic weapons. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.

Death toll can cause more than bombs and automatic weapons if they choose a bigger vehicle. That guy who drove a big rig thru a crowd killed 86 people. And the problem is unlike guns or bombs, its harder to detect somebody with the mindset to do such an act.

Vehicles are the easy choice but a guy with a sniper will still cause huge panic in the public with damage over time.

True. I guess a large bomb would cause more collateral damage though. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Any yahoo can drive a vehicle. It costs lots of money to train a sniper.

im not saying becomng a sniper for terror is time or cost effective. It's a scare tactic that causes fear though

A few years back a guy stole a tank and messed up that city they had a hardtime stopping him.

I think you are talking the San Diego one 20 years back. Some guy got into into armory and wreaked havoc.

Didn't someone just use a car to kill 1 person and injure dozens in Charlottesville? _________________ Courage doesn't always roar.
Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying...'I will try again tomorrow.'
A Catalan regional official said two people have been arrested.
Islamic State has claimed responsibility for the attack, according to its Amaq news agency. “The perpetrators of the Barcelona attack are soldiers of the Islamic State and carried out the operation in response to calls for targeting coalition states,” the agency said, referring to a United States-led coalition against the Sunni militant group.

here comes driver-less cars now for OTHER safety reasons. Wont even have a steering wheel. so you cant get into the drivers seat and do damage.
but for now all that can be done is every single city street along the side walk gets the huge metal poles that stick up out of the ground. this wont save people in the cross walk or other cars/bike riders on the street side. but it could save pedestrians and people having a cup of coffee or dinner sitting outside along the sidewalks. it would cost a lot of money. but i dont see any other thing that can be done aside from what they are already doing which is trying to find people before they get a chance to do this kind of stuff.
