Yes, actually Kanacken is a slang originally used by Germans for Turks in particular, suggesting another person (not the Shooter Sonboly) thought Sonboly must have been a Turk.
Also, Sonboly, in the video, actually made no comments about Turks specifically. The translation in post #2 is incorrect and not the same as what is stated in the original article from the Guardian.

That's how I interpreted it. It seems more likely to me that a bystander would think that the shooter was a Turk than that the shooter would single out Turks for criticism.
