Several dead in Germany as van ploughs into crowd in Muenster

[Gaffer]

There is a green and white van in the video from the current Muenster video. Don't hear to much about Muenster, too bad it had to be this kind of news. I had family living there (my German side), a few years ago, and have been there a few times myself. My uncle was a tank instructor at a tank training base next to Muenster. I think it is still a training base.

Not a lot of high speed chases in most European countries. I have a niece who's husband is in the Army stationed in Germany, where they all live. They traveled through FIVE countries in one day. Kind of like going from Bloomington to Wisconsin.

Motorcycles are the vehicle of choice for police high speed chases over here.
It's why most agencies don't have fast patrol cars.There's no need for it.
Helicopters are also used quite often.
They fly quite low and get the driver's attention.Usually they pull over pretty quick once they see that ...

Then the officers on motorbikes show up and give you a ticket.

If they call a van it means you're getting arrested.

*This will be in the following article.

They are now saying it is not terrorism.

The newspaper identified the driver as a 49-year-old German, Jens. H., who, it said, had a history of psychological problems. Authorities found no evidence connecting the incident to terrorism, Suddeutsche Zeitung reports.

Suppose this will be reason enough to call for a ban on all fully semi automatic vehicles.

 

[KittySlayer]

Probably a Full Automatic transmission.

Even those Semi Automatic transmissions only take a "Bump" of the shifter to make them Full Auto.

Only those trained and with a government issued license should be allowed to drive. And then only a manual transmission with Gear Limits of Three speeds like the last century when they still taught the Constitution in government sponsored schools. Who really needs more than three gears?

Do it FOR THE CHILDREN! Think how many lives would be saved. Probably less than 10% of teenagers can drive a manual transmission. Plus it is hard to text, vape, drive, shift, work the clutch all at the same time. The children driving will have to be engaged in the task of driving, avoiding deadly distractions.

Nobody caught it was in a vehicle free zone?

Daniel Kollenberg, who witnessed the aftermath, told the BBC: "I think it is a deliberate attack because it's not allowed for cars to go in this area."​

It's always the case with those types of attacks.They happen in pedestrian zones.

Just like mass shootings happen in gun-free zones.

MP5 with a brass catch bag FTW!

So much for training and licensing, huh?

Prayers for the victims.

Nope.
Remember, we've been told "Prayers" AREN'T ENOUGH.

Need to jam all these quotes you guys have right down the anti-gunners throats.
EVERY SINGLE ONE of them apply.
The only difference, people don't want stuff to apply to THEMSELVES.

Just like Hogg being upset about the backpacks.

 

[jedi]

ban all vehicles! its the only way to stop this from happening again.

its to make sure they clean up after themselves.
they are very cilivied over there.
plus you cant let the brass fall and hit someone. that stuff is dangerous only the police should touch it cause u know an empty casing can cause havoc

Shocked printcraft is shocked.

It kind of makes sense...

Dude. Why would she have bought a toy for a 62 year old man? That's weird. ..

Looks more like an HK 43.

They use the HK 417 to shoot from helicopters too but the stock doesn't seem to match.

I figured he would be.

Still no details on the gun used.
They reported suspect shot himself.
German guns laws are strict and if he had mental issues how did he get a gun legally.

Very few pictures of video.

From Indiana of course.

From Indiana of course.

oh lets be even more specific.
from NWI cause we let our guns flow into chiraq and then from there it left via ohare airport to germany.

This is how a liberal would look at this:

"If it was an AR15, there would have been more death. Good thing that it was just a van."

Maybe do a Kinetic Energy calculation and show them how much more dangerous the car is.
