What a tragedy. You have to wonder about the cause given the world today. Certainly there are players who would like to see stuff like this occur. It “could” have been an accident, but folks who actually make explosives don’t make many mistakes…

All it takes is one, looking at the complete devastation anyone near the blast was vaporized.
God bless them and their families

All I can imagine is gone before they even knew about it. All they were doing was their jobs.
