We need to quit being politically correct and instead face the truth

Indeed, both islamists/fundamentalists, their far-left enablers/apologists and the far-rightists like you that feast on death of people to advance their racist agenda must be crushed.

All three.

Islam is not a race. In Nice two Albanians are suspected of helping the Tunisian terrorist. They are not united by race but by an ideology rooted in religion – and there is nothing racist in opposing that ideology.

You're right. Let me correct. And let me be clear, my issue isn't than the far-right opposes islamism (which is just common sense). It's pretty much every other part of their agenda.

Indeed, both islamists/fundamentalists, their far-left enablers/apologists and the far-rightists like you that feast on death of people to advance their fascist agenda must be crushed.

Anyway the situation is still very, very unclear. Fingers crossed that casualty figures are firmly at the lower end of rumours.

Being described officially as terrorism. There are various unconfirmed reports that are more detailed but I'm not reposting them here atm.

These attacks are starting to happen on a regular basis.

We need to quit being politically correct and instead face the truth: Merkel is a criminal who is actively trying to destroy Europe by importing these people.

Do we know anything about the perpetrators yet?

There are conflicting reports about the killers from eyewitnesses. Some say they looked "foreign", others say they shouted xenophobic slurs ...

One woman even said a killer was wearing a Santa Claus costume.

AFP reports the men were of "Arab appearance"

Good thing: it seems they ran out of ammunition.

Bad thing: they are still not caught.

Basically nothing. Police are quoted as saying there is no indication that this was Islamist terrorism, but that's all officially. There are plenty of unconfirmed rumours however.

Others are saying that people shouted "ing foreigners" at the shooter after he started shooting.

Witness on CNN said that she heard "Allahu Akbar" shouted.

I don't know how to react to these things anymore. I honestly don't know.

To make an early, and most likely incorrect assumption this would seem likely to be a far right attack- ISIS style attacks have often ended with hostages/suicide bombings, whilst these appear to have escaped into the subway

We don't even know much about what happened and the xenophobes are already jumping to conclusions

I wont be suprised if we dont find out at all, the German state media have a tendencie to cover up things, just like the New Years eve sex attacks in Koln.

Looks like its a terrorist that commited suicide, read this on oe24.

If they are willing to release his identity, we will know if its Islamic extremism, although I doubt they will release this info as it would just boost the afD and the state media probably dont want that.

We will see what happens next..

Bavarian Interior Minister is indicating that there may well only be one perp:

Per Abenzeitung from Munich.



" Innenministerium: nur ein Täter?+++

N24 berichtet, dass das bayerische Innenministerium davon ausgeht, dass es sich wohl eher um einen Täter handelt. Eine Bestätigung gibt es hierfür allerdings noch nicht."

Munich is possibly my favorite city in the world. My fiancée lived there a couple of years, and was living on the same block as the live wwii bomb when that exploded. It hits quite close to home. Prayers to the victims and their families, and hopefully this doesn't lead to anymore violence in Germany.

These type of posts in this thread, at this time, aren't helpful or necessary. If spreading random theories or starting rumours is your thing, get a Twitter account and go wild. Let's try to keep this thread focused and intelligent. Gracias parcero.

Medical sources say that there are 11 dead, not confirmed though.

Here you can see a video of the shooter when he started firing (just above the live ticker):
