The ones you have been looking for to give confirmation about who the attackers were?
    I don't want an article that Munch Police said something, especially if it's a CNN article. I want a tweet, facebook post, press relase, or an article with video evidence of a high ranking investagator saying it. Basically I want to hear it directly from the Munich Police. Shouldn't be hard to find since CNN is apparantly quoting them.

    Thoughts and prayers to Germany.

    I mean, that's what we have to do when they refuse to actually address the underlying problem, right?
    I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes
    Or should I?

    I doubt it. Like other people have mentioned, she is the only person out of hundreds that has said anything about that particular phrase. You can post that she said it, but taking it as gospel is another thing entirely.

    Maybe someone answered the phone, claimed to be Munich Police, and said it was definately terrorists.

    That wasn't the norm for the region though. The era you are talking about came about when Christian child where taken from their parents and trained to be elite soldiers. They rebelled and overthrew the regime and for a while things quieted down...at least till they become corrupt and eventually destroyed.

    We can't let people try to play off the massive fuck up the current EU government made trying to get cheap labor.

    Well, I've watched the press interview by the police spokesman and he at least said he couldn't exclude an islamistic background.

    I have no idea what you're trying to say.

    There's video of someone shouting "Fuck foreigners" (I believe that's the translation?) in german, there's no video of anyone saying Allahu Akbar.

    Not excluding something is very different than confirming it though. They also won't exclude that the attackers were gay or christian lol Until there is evidence that says they weren't Muslims, Christians, or gay then they can't very well exclude it.

    Ok, first off... he's saying "Here's option A and here's option B, I think A is more likely so that's why it's more likely." So yeah, it's crazy talk. Don't worry about it.

    Second, what video of someone saying fuck foreigners? If you mean the rooftop video, it was really hard to tell who said what. You have to remember, it's not just one balcony. It's a multi-apartment building and it was quite obvious that it was several balconies that were witnessing the scene. The guy calling the dude a wanker was from a different balcony, I'm fairly certain about that.

    When you let in savagery, then savagery will play inevitably play itself out. Europe is learning the consequences of its incessant virtue signaling.

    I know, I'm just saiyng what I know to be fact, because I've seen the German dude say it in actual German. On TV. And if THAT is the source CNN has, then they're using a lot of creative license to change the narrative...

    I have a question, is the gunman saying "fuck foreigners" or are the people in the vicinity who saw who the gunman was reacting to his non-german nationality?
