    AT least one person has been killed after an explosion ripped through a restaurant in the city of Ansbach, near Nuremberg.

    A man has been been killed and up to 11 others injured – some seriously – after the blast ripped through the Eugens Weinstube wine bar at about 10pm on Sunday local time (8pm British time).

    Police special forces have cordoned off the area around the restaurant, which is in the old town area of the city, in Bavaria.

    Firefighters are rushing to the area from nearby cities to deal with the major incident.

    The local mayor said an "explosive device" caused the blast – and witnesses report seeing a man with a backpack nearby.

    The explosion was reportedly a suicide attack – and the man who died was the attacker.

    Ansbach Mayor Carda Seidel has said the blast was caused an "explosive device", according to local media.

    A spokesman for the Bavarian interior minister it was a “deliberate” act – rather than an accident.

    He said: “At present we assume it is not an accident."

    Eyewitnesses report heavily armed police are at the scene.

    People are being evacuated from the area.

    There is a large exclusion zone around the scene of the blast.

    The explosion has happened in the middle of the Ansbach Open music festival.

    Unconfirmed reports suggest just before the explosion a man with a backpack was denied entry to the festival.

    Up to 2,500 people had to be evacuated from the concert venue.

    The festival has now been cancelled.

    Still unclear who did this and what the motivation was. Let's not rush to conclusions.

    Let's reverse the reasoning for a bit. If we are talking about a 'suspect', then we must assume the worst. Due to recent attacks in various big cities within EU member states borders it is a safe bet to link this [happening] to Islamic terrorism, and muslim fundamentalism.

    So please, now that I've explained the process, let me ask you one question:

    Do you have evidence that is it NOT a Muslim?

    Look, I get what you're getting at here. But rush to judgement is never smart. Remember Oklahoma City in 1995? That was also assumed to be Islamic terrorism right off the bat.

    Just a request, can we please stop the "blank gonna blank?"

    We're smarter than that. Kind of dumbs down the forum every time I read it.

    The premises are different here. This is a direct consequence of EU policies of taking in unlimited, unscreened "refugees" while there being an existing threat of ISIS on the borders.

    Like I said before, it's time to stop looking at it glass half full but rather glass half empty now.

    Cops got three threads and now that it's against a leftist protectorate group we suddenly have to stop doing it?

    Muslims gonna Muslim.

    This is what all the "Islam is evil" rhetoric leads to. Is now you have guys like Dei writing stuff like this (even before it's confirmed who committed the act).

    Cops gonna Cop. Blacks gonna Black.


    It's all bigots gonna bigot to me.

    Rhetoric would not have existed without the premise, m8. Where were you condemning this practice during the 3 cop threads?

    I don't see any Blacks gonna black threads on the front page.

    This board may be anti police and anti Mulsim, but you're not going to convince anyone it's anti black too.

    Did you show your displeasure with the type of title that is being used in the other threads?

    Sorry if my posts aren't on your schedule

    Yeah there aren't but you know that's what more than a few people here think. We have anti-black posters here, they may not express their views, but we all know they are thinking "blacks gonna black"

    Right RocketsLegend?

    I'm not talking about any radical Islamist threads. Don't confuse it with that. I'm referring to the [Cops gonna cop] practice in the title.

    You're a hypocrite for not condemning that too.

    Those threads have been on for days now and you've logged onto these forums in those days. You had ample opportunity to do it if you really felt like it.

    So this is just your ordinary Muslim terrorist bombing thread, not a radical Islamist thread. Got it.

    Cops are a profession made up of all races and religions. Muslims aren't my protectorate, neither are Christians or Jews or cops for that matter. If you want to post Muslims gonna Muslim threads, that's fine with me but don't get upset when you see Jews gonna Jew and Christians gonna Christian threads.

    I'm not condemning your thread at all BTW. We already know a lot of posters paint an entire religion as extremist and crazy. Your thread is just another brick in that wall.

    So... do you have any evidence you're not the Zodiac Killer? #GlennBeck

    You guys really need to adjust your expectations of Dei. Remember the "why are there no smart homosexuals?" thread? Or the "is it legal to rape a woman if she enjoys it?" thread?

    Know who you're engaging with.

    I remember those lol. Musings in the air man. Throw in "Jeremy Lin is a joke!!!!" too.

    But now I'm actually serious. Don't shoot the messenger. It doesn't make the things I talk about any less real.
