It’s probably time we admit cars that are a bit too useful as weapons to continue affording them the vast uncritical access they currently enjoy in our built environments.

    I hope he’s AfD. At least it might convince a few more people that they are dangerous crazies.

      The attacker is an Afghan who came to Germany as a refugee and wasn’t legally allowed to stay anymore, but wasn’t deported.

      The attack targeted a labor union and there are children among the victims.

      This will push everyone but hardcore leftists further to the right.

      The last times AfD people did this, they still blamed foreigners. They’ll never accept it.

        They may not. Some who sympathize with them may change their mind.

            It’s hard to know what’s inside people’s heads or why they might change their vote.

              Well, I’m talking about the people I know & who have told me what’s inside their heads

                Unless you know what’s inside the heads of every voter who might vote for them, I don’t think that’s relevant. However, it turns out it was an Afghani immigrant anyway, so it doesn’t matter.

                  Instead of backing into the hypothetical possibility, why don’t you share any evidence that this is happening?

                    Because this all started with me being hopeful about something and not stating anything as fact?
