How does Angela Merkel sleep at night? The blood on her hands keeps piling up.

Did somebody kindly inform him that using a machete to slice a German is against German law?

Perhaps if Germany banned machetes, the anti-killing with machete law would be taken more seriously.

In case you dont know.. Its even banned to have a baseball bat with you or in the trunk hehe I am sure no one informed him properly of our laws. I bet no one told him that murder isnt allowed here either..But what do you expect from that poor refugee coming from such harsh country? He must have been traumatised and in a rush or so

What do they expect you to do? Store large rocks in your glove compartment?

Carry a pillow case full of lightbulbs?

Those rather large beer glasses could be weaponized, I supposed. Not the steins though- you've gotta respect the old european artisans. Lord knows the refugees won't.

i have noticed that a common denominator to a lot of these stories is a line to the effect of..."who was previously known to law enforcement"...

none of these attacks ever come out of nowhere...we always learn that there were plenty of warning signs...

the issue to me doesn't even appear to be so much islam or migrants...the issue is hearing a suitcase ticking and just letting it sit there until it goes off...

Agreed, though I do think it is a both-and sort of thing.

Hey your only allowed to shoot someone if hes standing infront of your bed...just as a funfact...
I dunno what they want us to do over here. All we can do is get pepper spray against dogs because anything different you need a permit (which id you use it either way you get in trouble. People have been using deodorant and hairspray for self defense over here.. No knives allowed either...

If I was left with nothing else, I'd probably buy some of that spray-able oven cleaner, but that's probably also outlawed in Germany along with sewing needles and koosh balls.

I think they oughta ban everything that could possibly represent a threat, like cars, tires, windshield wipers and door knobs.

No argument here. Especially since Department of Homeland Security officials are not even allowed to acknowledge the nature of the threat. We're so hyped up on cosmopolitanism that we won't seek to defeat the real enemies of cosmopolitanism.

That is the problem. They don't know anything. And what they do know is insignificant at best...
