Well...well...
This is impossible. Only America has gun violence.
Thanks for the update. AFP reporting the dead men are Italians.
Hal, I posted this over here Shooting Massacre In German Town
Thanks Hal.
I’ll look for the link.
Appreciate it.
Italy probe unearths huge Iraq arms deal
But since the ages of the victims range from 16 to 39, probably not.
According to Bildt Zeitung (a German tabloid) the six men were Italians. (”6 Italians killed by head shots”)
However, those Italians may be just as Swedish as the Swedish Gitmo prisoners.

PS: Under one of the pictures in the article it says: According to the first reports from the police the dead men were of southern extraction. (”Nach ersten Ermittlungen der Polizei sind die Toten südländischer Herkunft”)
Italian news reports say the men were from the Calabria region, members of two organized crime families.
Thanks Hal.
Well then...interesting still.
Uh oh...I have a friend in Duisburg. I’ve gotta give him a call...
Given how dangerous Germany has become, I suggest we bring all of our troops home, ASAP!
