Magdeburg Christmas market attack

[theleagueofgentlemen]

I wish I hadn’t seen the footage of what happened cause it’s really upset me.
No one really knows what the ‘motive’ is yet, but what I always find startling with things like this is that people are always quick to jump on the ‘left/right/what religion’ etc bandwagon and yet still fail to address the most glaringly obvious thing about attacks such as these. They’re always carried out by men.

Elon Musk didn't waste no time sticking his beak in, immediately tweeting that the German chancellor should resign.

I did think that when it started to emerge that the guy may be linked to far-right that the usual quarters would begin pushing that it's conspiracy or false flag.

I don't care what the motivation of these people is.

They are murderous and downright wicked, and we in Europe are allowing them to enter our countries in huge numbers, undocumented and anonymous, are supporting them financially, and effectively are encouraging them to destroy everything that makes our countries and our cultures worth living in and protecting.

Thanks to our weak politicians allowing uncontrolled immigration, we are all at risk.

From about 42 mins he talks about Musk, Robinson and the far right and says he’s a leftist.

You know he was a Saudi Doctor right?
Working as a doctor in Germany. He wasn’t anonymous in the slightest.

These people? Who?!
Saudis? Men? Doctors? Atheists? Psychologists?

It's fairly obvious she meant people who murder in this type of circumstance. As in, someone who deliberately decides to run over innocent people.

People who murder are being allowed into Europe in the thousands and effectively encouraging the destruction of European culture and way of life! Right, I get it-the immigrants!

No it wasn’t. Because the poster stated ‘huge numbers’, when there certainly aren’t huge numbers of this type of attack. They’re extremely rare.

Huge numbers of undocumented people are entering countries illegally the doctor was an asylum seeker at one point.There’s been an increase in terrorism throughout Europe many have been apprehended before they carried out atrocities it’s the reason anti terror bollards are installed in many countries.

I hadn't made the link because the quote was only the first bit.

You're right. The second paragraph said something completely different to how I'd interpreted it.

I know this one is going to get fractious but I just want to make a distinction from jump that seeking asylum is a recognised universal human right and not the same as 'illegal immigration'.

Yeah, I missed that bit, even though I had read the post. When I read your quote it seemed clear to me to just mean people who murder like this. The second paragraph suggests something else which doesn't align with my views at all so I should read more carefully. I apologise.

You’re taking my reply to someone else completely out of context.

Apologies! I thought you were referring to the previous posters “huge numbers “ statement? I took it to mean the huge numbers of undocumented people arriving throughout Europe.

It is but entering a country illegally without documentation is a criminal offence.

Of course.

I was merely pointing out the terms mean different things and this doctor sought and was apparently granted asylum. Did he lie like duck to get it? Possibly, we don't know yet.

It is why I asked, I was not trying to be difficult...just confused by the way the post was written.
Thank you for trying to clarify x

I've asked for my post to be deleted and I believe it has been. I'm rather embarrassed. Sorry x

Of course.

He was granted asylum on human rights grounds the Saudis wanted him back to face charges and had warned Germany he was a danger on a few occasions according to the press.

 

[Warpaint]

I wonder if the guy himself will talk at all as to why he did it. Normally they're shot, he definitely didn't intend to stay alive.

I wouldn’t call it rare. Security services prevent many attacks that don’t get reported. Without our services, it would be so much worse. Left and right wing attacks and ‘immigrant’ attacks
