BREAKING: Reports Munich gunman shouted 'you don't bypass the language filter like this. Reds8n Turks!'

— The Int'l Spectator (@intlspectator) July 22, 2016


??? what does Germany have against the Turks? Anti-Ermahgawdind?

Witness broadcast on CNN says Munich gunman shouted "allahu Akbar" and targeted children.

— Josh Kraushaar (@HotlineJosh) July 22, 2016

Hmmmm... conflicting accounts abounds...

Regardless, this looks like terrorism. (not necessarily ISIS, but terrorism neverthanless).

From the video, it seems like a couple of guys were yelling that at the gunman, rather than the above.

I'll bet yes. I doubt they would be standing there talking smack at an active shooter.

That would be pretty bad ass if they did, though.

Germany recently announced that it believes in the Armenian Genocide and that the Ottoman Empiree was behind it. Turkey responded by saying "there will be consequences."

Things haven't been peachy since then, but they were good before hand.

Was just reading up on this on spiegel.de - they don't know much yet, at least eight dead, possibly up to three shooters, traffic is being re-directed away from the city, hospitals are on emergency alert. Police forces including the GSG9 are being drawn to the city.

It could have been a mentally ill/unstable single perpetrator. One male was found nearby the shopping mall who is not added to the list of victims by the police. He could have committed suicide. His death is currently investigated. I would keep politics out of this until we have evidence for it.

The 9th victim shot himself in the head. Most likely this is the shooter.

He was not found nearby the shopping mall but about 1000m away from it. It is confirmed that he shot himself.

The roughly translated conversation posted above sounds like it might (!) be a German guy with a migrant background that got hassled by racists. I can't imagine that someone walks around with a gun all day, every day, and then suddendly flips out apparently at random at something like that and shoots a few people. Something doesn't add up.

We don't need space marines for that but it's racist to point out Islam is a problem, it's not politically correct to fight a war, we should just accept our society being attacked constantly and be happy they come in and want us all to die.

If its a war, we should fight it as one. Not play games, not half hearted. Go fight them properly or not at all.
This half hearted token war ain't stopping them

This problem is not going away.

We are on a frontline and they do not care who they kill.

I think the annoyance (at least from me) comes from the fact that someone is jumping to conclusions before really any of the actual facts are out and using it to foment irrational fears and hatred. Strangely absent from this discussion are the conflicting reports of the man being a possible right wing anti immigration nut--today is the five year anniversary of the Norway massacre after all. People just need to calm down and wait for the facts before spouting their invective.

Help me, Rhonda. HA!

Seems like we have a final report.


Looks like 9 dead, then the attacker killed himself.

Well, some kind of confirmation at least:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-36873180

A gun attack at a Munich shopping centre which left nine people dead was carried out by one gunman who then killed himself, police have said.
A huge manhunt was launched following reports that up to three gunmen had been involved in the attack at the Olympia centre.
The body of the suspect was found about 1km (0.6 miles) from the shopping centre and police used a robot to check it for explosives.
The motive for the attack is unclear.
