Go over to Youtube, look up Halle, and a 25-second video of this one guy on the street firing a round or two. He doesn’t appear to be worried or in any kind of hurry. Odd behavior.
As far as I know...no crime family operation would include some guy in a ‘mil-style’ uniform...either from the Turks, the Kurds, the Lebanese, etc.
It would almost seem like he had someone hire him for a hit-job, and he wanted to make a mass confusion situation out of this....throwing a grenade into the act, and having this next to a Jewish synagogue.
There’s been hit-jobs by various clan families and I might suspect that someone hired a Russian guy to throw off the German cops. Some confusion exists....this guy caught....may not be the gunman. Some story says shooters (plural). Another problem is that a second shooting about 10 miles away occurs around the same time...maybe connected...maybe not.
I’ll add this comment...a state election in eastern Germany occurs in two weeks. Maybe some crazy element in the election business wanted the public all hyped-up.
Any right-wing group would be transitioning from “We are just protecting our heritage” to “ethnic cleansing” which I always thought would be a natural transition. Going after Jews shows that no one is safe since the Jews are not anything close to a threat to anyone in Europe. Canaries in the coal mine
He was calm because he knew no one would be shooting back.
