Another German holiday. Another car running into a crowd, this time in my old party town. Starting to feel being stuck in a gruesome version of the Groundhog Day movie.

I don't know, but I at least have noticed that the press releases and the police aren't trying as hard to pretend everything is fine.
It actually tops the news, now.
That's true.
Most of the worst cases are a day ending in day in an inner city or border town.
So, you're saying that NATO is doing this to support the AfD?
You can deport the migrants. Can't deport the Russian military.
Trump thinks we can't walk and chew gum, at the same time.
Religion of Peace 🕊️ LOL
I can see Russia from my house.

the left-leaning media loves to fuel the anti-gunner rhetoric also, just sayin so the whole world sees this even though it's always in places where normal people can't legally carry guns around, always
europeans and asians already have been disarmed so it's a total false image for people who have been utterly neutered
yeah, it's the same same america: shooting europe: beatings with common household objects or indiscriminate murder with car all the same to me, except it's "america where guns are not easy to get" and that is also an unstated qualifier for europe. oh yeah, you know where in europe this shit doesn't happen btw? balkans gun ownership is not officially easy there but basically half the households have an AK stashed away or at least a makarov, at minimum, probably more like 3/4 in the small towns the criminals don't fuck around in those places, funny that
You should also be aware of the fact that many of the migrants are from Russian territories, and that Russia has the largest Muslim population in Europe. Russia is *more Islamic* than the EU, not less. And the numbers are dramatic, if you just look at the younger generations.
Countries want to be in NATO to protect themselves against Russian invasion. Ukraine wouldn't have been invaded, if it were NATO.
That's like saying locking your house means the thieves have to make a mess breaking the door down, and then they would be all pissed off about the extra effort and might get angry and rape your wife, so it would be better to leave the door open.
Just realized that most of the people on here won't get that reference. Feeling old. 😅
The Greens lost the last election, so the media is allowed to report the news, again.
Places this tends to not happen can be identified by the large white space in this completely random map.
They don't claim, that they just want to be left alone. You're projecting that.
yeah, funny that. balkans and baltics, former soviet union territory and aligned countries also a lot of them former vassals of turkey
They aren't as naive, as we are.
i didn't spend the majority of my 12 years in europe so far in bulgaria, serbia and bosnia for no reason they are SUPER skeptical of everything, and especially former yugoslavs are ready to go to war over it at the drop of a hat, bulgarians are more low key
also, i'm especially skeptical, i feel like probably my ancestors were ukrainian, also in the white section, and also under the thumb of an extremely violent dicatorship at present
Both sides of Ukraine are under a violent dictatorship, at the moment.
not gonna disagree with that at all i have a stake in this because my best buddy in homeless amsterdam was half ukrainian and got deported back "home" just before the war started, and last i heard of him was kinda alarming, and i loved that guy, a true tank (physically, he was able to tow a 10 person rowboat over the sand one time) and a survivor, those russian pigs didn't klil him (and that was probably for the crime of being half ukrainian)

very nice punchline
pretty sure that the way of peace and the incidence of terrorist violence in the countries would be pretty close to the same i bet that rates of gun ownership on the american version of this map would also show certain correlations...

Do you understand, that correlation and causation are two different concepts. So even when this correlate. It is no proof for a causation. And when the causation is not proofen, based on logic your assumption is simple racism. Even when you created some model to legitimate it.
Islam is not a race. I'm too religious to think that religion doesn't effect behavior. If one thing tends to correllate with another, having more of one will lead to more of the other. There is no need to prove causation. Causation would only tell you why they tend to correllate. I don't actually care, why the correllate.
Also, I don't care, if you think I'm racist. Only people like you worry about whether people think you're racist. I'm okay with some racism, so long as it doesn't reach ridiculous levels. It's just an extended form of familial preference and it's perfectly normal.

the reason anyway is something that i witnessed first hand in prison i got jammed in a remand center holding cell with algerians and moroccans, because one of the moroccans was a professional translator who spoke perfect english i saw these kids, doing their salah and all day long talking about how robbing people and hurting people was Jihad when the people were not muslims that is precisely the mentality that is at play with this, they are constantly bombarded with this rhetoric in their home countries and all the poverty and crime is blamed on the dirty unbelievers, and then they go to the lands of the unbelievers and act like a bunch of gypsy vikings
freemymind 🇨🇭 @freemymind 🇨🇭 - 1mo
Yes. This point I understand and agree. Jihadist defnitly are not to be tolerated. For me tolerance ends, when violence begins. And when I talk about violence I talk about verbal and physical violence. I only argue to have violence as the measure to justify repression. Not the practice of a religion. Because it is a small fraction of muslims that are jihadist. All bigger religions have been legitimation of violence. But the Bases of the big religions have more in common then what they have as differences. The Thora, Bible and Koran are all books, that tell stories of empathy. Of human behaviour as most of us think it should be. Help each other. Go to a muslim country and you will see, that people are warm and always open to receive a guest. But on the streets of a big city many times, well integrated people are not seen, since they are not very different from us. But violent people will always stand out. Those we have to act on. All together. So everyone has the dignity to live in peace.
