Looks intentional. Religion of peace? BLM/Antifa? Right wing spergs?
 
Jesus, of all days. I just wonder what the target was since, looking through the pictures, it's in some random part of downtown not close to anything significant. I don't live in Nashville so that's all I can presume.
Ironically, it's a good thing this happened at 6am on a holiday like this though because it's practically dead outside so I'm glad no one was reported hurt so far.
