    The reason was to enforce a pedestrian zone. Most European cities have them in the center. Those are different from what had to be created specifically to protect Christmas markets.

    There's no need to make up stuff to incite hatred




    This shows that a nut job is a nut job. Yeah, is there a chance this guy was a sleeper and his cover was to be anti-Muslim? Pretty close to zero.

    In reality, he may have very well hated Islam. Maybe he felt rejected by Germans and desperately wanted to be part of German culture, and even loved by the far right. But his attempts didn't work, and in fact he may have faced discrimination, or resented the anti-refugee talk happening, and that's what moved him to act on his anger.

    The point being, why make these leaps and claim he is a Muslim so that people can have fuel to throw in the fire. Being a Muslim doesn't make you a bad person. Just as being a non-Muslim mean you are a good person that would never commit and act of terrorism. Instead of jumping to conclusions and believing anything on the internet...why not just see who he actually is and the actual motive.

    Whatever you say. How cute that you and Astros follow each other around now. Between the two of you you might manage a room temperature IQ.

    @Xopher maybe you should criticize @astros123 for asking me to fight him over a disagreement on the internet. You won't thought

    There's no reason to fight over an internet argument, no matter how wrong you are.

    As I see it, you have 2 options:

    1. Thunderdome

    2. Demolition Derby with Mad Max rules (ie there are no rules)

    Choose. You have 15 seconds to comply.

    I will say I would rather have a beer with @AroundTheWorld than you.
    No offense intended. He seems quite interesting

    I won't be able to make any of those, but if you find yourself in upstate NY I know some places we can imbibe.

    This is down the street.
