Attack on Magdeburg, Germany.

[Novostranger]

Car runs over a crowd in a German Christmas market. At least 80 people have been injured and 2 or 11 (according some sources) have perished as a result.

It has been said that the perpetrator was a man from Saudi Arabia. And now more and more markets are being patrolled in the country.

I doh't know if you're trying to be ignorant sarcastic, but unlike in a certain country european countries don't have mass killings happen frequently. One reason are strict gun laws.

I don't know if you're trying to be ignorant sarcastic, but a gun and a car become the same when used to kill innocent people...

I don't know if you're trying go be ignorant sarcastic, but do we have frequent mass murdering in european countries? Are cars in europe being frequently used to kill a crowd of people? And how deadly are they compared to firearms? And how high is the death toll in countries with strict gun laws compared to countries where you can easily get a gun?

Specious reasoning is no substitute for evidence. Cars are deadlier and even easier to get. You have no statistic to say strict gun control has anything, because there's zero control group in the matter, and the rate of mass murders in Europe are climbing.

Where do you have evidence that cars used for murder are deadlier when you can just empty a magazine into a crowd, reload and keep going?

In Europe we have strict gun control and I don't see frequent mass shootings like in the US. Is this your coping mechanism? Compare the frequency of mass shootings from the US with mass shootings in european countries with strict gun controls. Perhaps a light will dawn on you. Also no control group?

You may take a look at Australia before making up stuff. Maybe read about New Zealand, too.

While we're at it, can you prove the climbing mass murders in Europe? Or did you watch too much tick tock and yt? And with which weapons are the mass murders you're talking about being carried out?

Are you Australian?

2 or 11 people died? That’s quite a gap.

A better word would be 11 people are in critical condition.

[Coinkydink]

Germany is so inclusive

[Hammer Of Evil]

"at least 0-1 person died in this insane attack ... . ...!! also we're not sure if it was from old age, or an actual attack."

news from this guy is cooked bro XD

[apathy]

Nice how the German authorities are trying to throw atheists under the bus.

Atheists and secularists don't do this, like they didn't drive a lorry into a Christmas market back in 2016 either. We know the attacker to be one of the usual suspects.

A doctor, my a$$.

Even madder when you find out what was playing on the car radio at the time

Pretty sure the russian state of terror is behind it. I mean, is it a coincidence that this happens now after Scholz officially stepped down who also has visited Ukraine during his last days in power?

The quicker we disarm the russian gestapo that is slowly manipulating, sabotaging and destroying us, the quicker we can return to normality. Unless, some people on the right don’t desire ‘normality’ to return and would rather have a world in disarray and chaos just for the sale of ‘finally something interesting happening’.

I don't know about Europe but in the States it looks like there are about as many fatal car accidents as there are gun deaths. This is really rough science, mind.

But guns were banned, and those are the sole cause of mass murders aren't they? You mean to tell me cars are far more common and a lot more dangerous? :-o

well, we germans don't get a school or mass shooting every other week like the US does so clearly we're doing something right.

thanks but I'll take one deranged lunatic driving a car into a christmas market once every 8 years (last time this happened was in 2016) over regular school shootings happening every year and have gun violence the most common cause of death for children in the country.

I'm kinda surprised that you Yankees haven't considered turning school and mass shootings into your new national sport given how much you're into it.

As of November 30, the USA has seen a total of 648 people killed and 2227 people wounded in 547 mass shootings in just 2024 alone.

Meanwhile germany: one attack with a car with 2-4 dead and 60-80 injured

Not to bad in comparison, all things considered.

2025 is gonna be interesting. Are you Yankees gonna have less mass shootings or more? Maybe I should make a betting pool about this...

I’ve heard all 11 victims were toddlers and the driver was a toddler too.
