Always Bring A Gun To A Sword Fight

A 36-year-old man was killed in Stuttgart last Wednesday with a weapon described as a "sword."
The man was attacked in a street in the late afternoon, police said. Witnesses called police after the attack. Witnesses filmed the attack.
The victim succumbed to his injuries despite rescue efforts.
Police initially reported the alleged perpetrator was a Syrian citizen who had lived in Germany since 2015. However there may be discrepancies in that there was suspicion that the suspect could be a Palestinian who has assumed a false identity.
The attacker fled the scene by bicycle, but he was later arrested after a widespread search.
A police spokesman described the act as "unusual and appalling."
Shortly before his horrific crime, the murderer posted an Islamic confession on facebook.
The stabbing took place in Stuttgart, which is the capital of the southern German state of Baden-Württemberg, and is the sixth-largest city in Germany. It is regarded as one of Germany's safest cities.

Lucky guy! To be so culturally enriched!!!

While its sad to see this murder. What is ypur point? That Muslims or immigrants are violent? That a gun could have saved the murderer? Both? I find it quite appalling that you use such a saddening and disgusting moment to push your political agenda

nah. just reporting since media's crickets.
a welcome amusement in the light of all those mass-shooting memes pushed by liberals btw.

Wait a minute. It just occured to me, you find murder a welcome amusement in the light of all those mass-shooting memes pushed by liberals btw.

No I don't- learn to read English.
'amusement' refers to the subject of the previous sentence, which is 'reporting' - i.e. making a meme about an appalling crime swept under the rug by MSM - and it's ironic anyway.

That is definetly not Amusement. And again there is no reason for American media to report on a German murder in Germany. Just like there is no reason for German media to report on an American murder in America. Also why is it ironic? That a Jordanian Ex-Con kills a German. Is the irony that he came in legally with his own money? That he wasn't a refugee? That he had been on a Interpol list? Yes. Very ironic

*sigh*
ok - here's an irony breakdown to the slow-witted:
German media crickets vs coverage in the US and abroad - how is this not ironic?!

"German media crickets"

lol no. German media definitely reported on it. How exactly do you think I know about this?

"how is this not ironic?!"

Its not ironic because German Media definitely covered it.

There clearly was a time lag. News was spread all over foreign and social media while German editors were shiting their pants. they finally decided to cover it - give it 2 days of delay - after they realized they could no longer sweep it under the rug.

so if you're at german links here's your source

"There clearly was a time lag. News was spread all over foreign and social media while German editors were shiting their pants. they finally decided to cover it - give it 2 days of delay - after they realized they could no longer sweep it under the rug."

There were reports by local media almost immediately. National News medias didn't see a reason to report on singular Criminals.

"https://jungefreiheit.de/kultur/medien/2019/stuttgart-mord-deutschlandfunk-verteidigt-nichtberichterstattung/"

All this really does is strengthen my points. Why should National News report on average murders? If the National New were to cover every murder in Germany, they'd be at it for an hour every day reporting on Murder, instead of Nation-Wide relevant news.

Why do you believe this murder to be news Worthy of sharing with the rest of the country?

Ah. "Reporting"

You do know that the media did Report on it?

not here

too bad they dont have guns, he could have shot him and lived

just one witness with a gun in the glovie ...

Neither does German media report on who murders who in Wyoming.

so you are concurring with colonels statement? he was "just reporting since the media crickets"

the demoted colonel is twisting facts - don't fall for it.
'crickets' refers precisely to the German mainstream media.

"Deutschlandfunk" justifies not reporting.
„Tagesschau“,"Tagesthemen“, „Nachtmagazin“ (ARD) as well as „heute“, „heute Journal“ und „Morgenmagazin“ (ZDF) refused to inform their viewers.

Whereas foreign media considered the occurences news worthy.
Daily Mail (UK), New York Times (USA), Le Dauphiné Libéré (France) and Le Soir (Belgium) covered the appalling crime.

Also, I assume your German so Here:

Tribute aside I don't think a German would contribute any of this.
Political memes are illegal in the EU and stasi brigades are hard working on censoring social media and reporting patriotic thinkers.

Ah. Welp, guess I am on a wanted list somewhere. *Shrugs*

?

For America? Sure. I assumed he was talking about German media

ahh

Not only was the Cause covered extensively by the SWF (Südwestfunk) but also in "Hallo Deutschland"

The reason why ARD or ZDF didn't cover it in the National News or extensively is:

"That the ZDF did not take up the murder in the main news, the broadcaster based on press inquiries on the day after the incident so that would be reported on crimes in the news today only if they had a "nationwide social dimension". In addition, according to prosecutors, there are no religious or political motives behind the act. "Because of the special circumstances of the act in Stuttgart, however, our magazine program 'hello Germany' has reported extensively," writes the press office on a press request from CORRECTIV."

"The central newsroom ARD-aktuell, which includes Tagesschau, Tagesthemen and Tagesschau.de, justifies the failure to take up the topic in their programs to CORRECTIV also with the fact that "a political, racist or religious motivated background of the act" according to the current state The investigation was very unlikely. Such a background "could have been the reason for the Tagesschau to report on this case". Even a political or social debate did not trigger the case in the days after the fact."

Its in German tho.

Don't belive the Good Colonel. He's just rehashing what some twat in Facebook said

haha- sure.
SWF - the Stuttgart local broadcast lol.

boy I'm talking about the nationwide big ones.

"https://correctiv.org/faktencheck/gesellschaft/2019/08/07/doch-ard-und-zdf-haben-ueber-mord-mit-schwert-in-stuttgart-berichtet"

I see you didn't see this

Also SWF (or more correctly SWR) is not " the Stuttgart local broadcast " It is "SudWestFunk" or Southwest(funk) (Not sure what Funk is in English). The SWR covers the entire states of Baden-Württemberg und Rheinland-Pfalz

Also I made a slight mistake, its actually SWR. SWF merged with SDF and became SWR

"I'm talking about the nationwide big ones."

A) They did (SWR being part of ARD and "Hallo Deutschland" both covered the incident)

B) A normal murder with no Political, Religious or Nation impacting effect is not worthy of National News

I see you forfeit
