    ISIS flooding in with the refugees why does that seem so far fetched?? These guys have a network and reach beyond our scope

    All of Europe is wide open and Germany took in a lot of these refugees

    Is it wide open, or are countries taking in refugees? And you seem to know who the shooter(s) is.

    Countries with wide open borders....

    It's highly unlikely that this is an immigration issue

    How about you actually get some facts before making assumptions? Reports suggest the perpetrators were in fact neo-Nazi scum, so ye can hold off on your anti-Muslim, anti-refugee diatribe for this one.

    And to those of you suggesting this is now normal, let me assure you that here in Europe we are not desensitised to it and it does still cause great shock.

    18 year old from Germany

    Any further info? A disturbed youth? Just someone trying to become infamous or someone with an axe to grind?

    Someone said he's a Neo-Nazi.

    That's a bit of a jump.

    You may be correct in the end but...pretty bold assumption.

    I'm not radicalized.

    Excellent point, it is certainly a very premptuous leap to make

    Basically, the German police aren't leaping to any conclusions. There are conflicting eyewitness reports, one person claiming he shouted abuse against foreigners and said he was German, another saying he yelled Allahu Akbar.

    So I guess we just have to wait for more concrete info

    Sounds like a single shooter. An 18 year old kid with German and Iranian citizenship. Early reports are the guy had no links to a terror group. But that he had some sort of mental disorder (obvioulsy).

    I guess the days of just taking yourself out are over. Everyone wants to make a head line.

    While I've agreed with most of what you've posted here I don't agree with your "obviously". Violence does not equate to mental illness, and we do those you do struggle with mental illness a huge disservice to assume it does. Far more violence is due to plain old anger and frustration in people who never developed better ways to deal with it, often fueled by alcohol or drugs.

    If you are willing to walk outside of a mcdonalds and start shooting and target children, you have some sort of mental disorder. The rational brain does not work that way.

    Thing is all of them,,just shoot innocent..simple people walkimg in a street,shopping in a mall
    Now a kid ..of 18 years old..born and raise to munich ,parents from iran...
    Thing is the world is fucked up and human life means nothing for so many out there
    What is clear for me so far..in almost all situations...the suspect,the murderers are almost always someone doesnt fit in society.they are out of it..or kicked out of it.,thats why mostly are muslism
    Cos cant get easily along their style of life and religion with west world.and they left alone..with no friends,no girlfriend,,sure some make fun of them,..and thats makes jealousy,creates hate..and them he turns into fanatic groups..and its more easily then to turn u to something dangerous....alot find selter to fanatic islam grouos and get manipulate and becomes from a kid to a murderer...someone that finnaly gets the attention,do something "important"..his name stays at history....globalization has a price that some must pay with their lifes...sad..but true
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
    “..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”

    Human behaviour is far more complex than "rational vs irrational", and assuming that everyone who is violent has a mental disorder lets those who are violent due to normal human emotions like rage and jealousy off far too easily.
