OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Federal officials are resolved never to allow a terrorist attack like the Oklahoma City bombing happen again, Deputy Homeland Security Advisor Caitlin Durkovich told survivors and loved ones of the 168 people killed in the April 19, 1995, bombing Friday. “What happened here in Oklahoma still rests heavy in our hearts; ... what transpired here 29 years years ago remains the deadliest act of homegrown terrorism in U.S. history,” Durkovich said in front of a field of 168 bronze chairs, each engraved with the name of a bombing victim, at the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/o...icial-says/ar-AA1njC6U?OCID=ansmsnnews11

Our plant had been evacuated due to a chemical leak at the ice cream factory next door. We were all in a local park waiting for the all clear, heard about it. Sad and depressing

You could bet serious money that it WILL happen again, or worse, with all the unknowns that have been allowed into the country.

.... Which terrorist group was responsible for the OKC bombing? I forgot. If you forgot you're part of the problem... His name was Timothy McVeigh... Dan

depends on which rumors you believe but TM was a nutcase. This was a terrible attack on innocent lives. He got what he deserved.
We will see more of this with all the terrorist coming across the border. The people like alley will defend any lost of life saying but trump could have stopped them when he was president and didn't.
