the backpack this guy is wearing is ominous, more ammunition or a suicide bomb?


I'm guessing ammunition, a LOT more ammunition.

What are you blabbering about, you moron? Trump is from the USA. If you refer to his paternal ancestry, what has that to do with ANYTHING, you racist bastard? Look at the hard numbers. Germany has FAR fewer of these incidents than does the USA.

If it's true, it's noteworthy that he didn't use an explosives belt; rather, he shot himself in the head.

There is a video below where an apparent gunmen (at 0:37) clearly states that "Ich bin Deutscher" (I am German)

And one witness apparently heard a shooter shout "s**t Foreigners".

She probably meant that Isis might want to deliver a message against Trump on his day of his candidacy's victory.

I don't think she meant some conspiracy theory led by Trump.

Interesting that they are saying no link to Islamists.

CNN was just playing an interview with a German woman who claimed to be an eyewitness to the McDonalds attack and said the man shouted "Allahu Akbar!"

Maybe CNN got punked by a hoaxer. Maybe it's more complicated than a "true German"/Islamist dichotomy.

BTW, today is the 5th anniversary of the 2011 Norway attacks, where far-right extremist Anders Behring Breivik killed 77 people.

Doesn't make much sense tho....a Nazi shooter would target a refugee camp instead, why would he choose random people that may be Germans.

Munich Police says that there is currently no indication that this was an Islamist terrorist attack...

The_Face_of_Boo,

Why do Muslim terrorists target random people who very well may be Muslim?

The people in the video yelling at him are apparently calling him a derogatory term for a Turk when he replies that 'I am German, I was born here' then something about growing up in a poor area on welfare, being bullied for 7 years, "because of you I had to buy this gun", something about 'treatment'. Not sure what to make of it. Getting this from somewhere else, I don't speak German so maybe somebody can confirm.

However eye witness on CNN said that the shooter in McDonalds(who could be a different person than the one on the roof, they are reporting maybe one than 1 gunmen of course) yelled 'Allahu Ackbar' and targeted children before fleeing into the mall. They said there was another shooting at Marienplatz metro station which is a couple miles away
