And the other shooter looked like the stereotypical goon. I'm having trouble believing this is IS-orchestrated.

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

Isn't CNN American, though? I wouldn't trust an American news source if it tells me the sky is blue.

In all seriousness, how the hell do they know if even Süddeutsche is going "We don't know any details yet" on most of this?

Yikes, when did GBS get straight up nazi? Their thread on this is sure something.

e: Facebook's special "I'm ok!" feature for terrorist attacks / mass shootings is the kind of thing that back in the 90s I would've considered ridiculously over-the-top in a cyberpunk dystopia comic book / action movie.

Pretty sure the rampage had already happened at that point, so you could argue that every second spent throwing insults at the old guy from the video was a second where he wasn't shooting at other people

The old guy from the video must have balls the size of watermelons btw to talk to an armed spree shooter like that, holy poo poo

Friend of mine works in Munich but lives about as far away. I'm very deliberately not trying to contact them because probability is on their side, but they sometimes take days to reply to texts as it is and if I sent one now and didn't get a reply right away, that's when I'd start worrying. :v:

About all I do hope for is that they made it out before everything went on lockdown and aren't stuck in Munich for the night now.

Meanwhile I am concerned by the fact the perpetrator(s) managed to escape and they have no idea where to.

Edit: Meanwhile, on CNN

quote:

Witness: Gunman shot at children

A woman named Loretta told CNN she was in a McDonald's across the street from the mall when a man with a gun came out of a bathroom and began shooting.

"I come out of the toilet and I hear like an alarm, boom, boom, boom," she told CNN's Dugald McConnell. "He's killing the children (...) The children were sitting to eat. They can't run."

Loretta said the gunman was right behind her but had his back to her. She said her 8-year-old son had been in the bathroom with the shooter, whom she described as heavyset and wearing dark clothing. She said the man yelled "Allahu akbar!"

The woman said she took her children, ran from the McDonald's and went across to the street to the mall.

This is apparently the latest:

* Unknown number of shooters, between 1 and 3.

* At least 2 shooters can be assumed based on the videos of a shooter outside a McDonalds, and one of the roof of a carpark.

The police (or better said the Innenminister) said they think "minimum one shooter". It might be three, but they changed from "minimum three" to that.

Police have said "up to three" repeatedly. No confirmation on one of them offing themselves yet.
