I have atrocity fatigue. I’m unmoved by these incidents happening one after another with neither governments nor news media trustworthy reporters of exact facts. Backlash is overdue, however much it will be madly deplored when it arrives.

I don’t see it happening. That, in itself, is outrageous.

I feel that is normal. I’ve seen evil like that all the time. Even as Americans said in 2008, that everything was A Okay, that elections would save the nation and even the world.

As if that could ever happen.

Sounds, so far, like a combination of “second generation” migrant “German” combined with certain crazy “let’s shoot up kindergarten” thinking like the Democrats have in the USA.

expat. Thing is, if he weren’t in Germany, he couldn’t have done this in Germany. Most countries have enough troubles of their own without importing more.

Here is a WaPo piece on teenage shooters.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/us-researcher-young-shooters-tend-to-research-role-models/2016/07/23/44510054-5141-11e6-bf27-405106836f96_story.html

Also, the latest reports from Germany say that this was in the planning for a year. They found cellphone photos of the shooter casing the area. Also they think he got the gun from a dark site on the internet where criminals frequently get guns.

they are still people on the web saying this was connected to Islamic terrorism and that the gun probably came from a mosque. Isn’t it amazing how many mind readers we have in this country? I can barely read comments on most sites anymore.

Said it before: Let’s a presume a Beslan goes down here, possibly in the ‘burbs or the country.
The site will be surrounded by scores, possibly hundreds of grim, armed citizens, held back by the police.
After all is over, these people; frustrated, grieving, incandescently angry at their inability to stop the thing, without the release of combat…..
If you have Muslim friends, encourage them to keep their car gassed up and a bugout bag handy.

Joe Joffe is publisher of Die Zeit weekly newspaper in Germany He was also one of the people involved in establishing The American Interest. He is at Hoover Institute, and he knows more about real America than any other person in Germany. I thought you might like to read what he has to say about Munich.

JJ,

Tagging onto GB’s comment, I would add that diseases are being brought into the country unchecked and unscreened, and thus into our schools. Criminal illegal aliens are coming across our borders repeatedly and causing death and mayhem, and Ryan pushes to fund sanctuary cities where repeat criminal offenders are coddled and given social services at our expense.

It will take many deaths before a serious push back arises.

J.J.,
“When a jihadi targets children, will that finally bring a sense of outrage to our President and our national conscience?”

If it doesn’t, the consequence is clear; a society that won’t protect its children has no future.

I’m doubtful too, as many Americans have already expressed strong support for sacrificing children to political correctness.

Two demonstrations serve as proof; two gay men or two lesbians cannot by definition provide a parental role model of the opposite sex from themselves to a child and, allowing men into women’s facilities provides pedophiles unfettered access to the young.

Targeting children is a way to inflict maximum psychic pain. As a parent who has lost a child I can agree with that. However, my child died in an accident. I was left with bottomless grief not outrage.

He who murders a child gains a lifelong enemy. Anyone who saw Pat Smith speak at the Republican convention can sense that she is on a lifelong quest to see justice done for the murder of her son, Sean.

When a jihadi targets children, will that finally bring a sense of outrage to our President and our national conscience? I don’t see it happening. That, in itself, is outrageous.
