Germany blast: Ansbach bar explosion 'leaves one dead' - BBC News

http://www.theguardian.com/world/liv...e-blast-latest

Sounds like he f*cked up and just ended up killing himself.

I am sure it just contained copies of his new mixtape.

Maybe you hit "preview post" and forgot to hit "submit reply".

Zhanteimi 07-24-2016 07:38 PM

Most likely. That must be it. :)

While you're at it, don't come to Japan, either!

Frownland 07-25-2016 07:28 PM

There is a joke about that story that I want to make so ****ing bad but I think I'm just going to write this instead.

Zhanteimi 07-25-2016 07:29 PM

^What a mature mod and human being you are!

Chula Vista 07-25-2016 07:31 PM

What's the history behind those crazed knife attacks in Japan??

Zhanteimi 07-25-2016 07:34 PM

Every once in a while, somebody flips out. It's been eight years since the last one.

Zhanteimi 07-26-2016 04:14 AM

Vindicated in my advice yet again. This is literally becoming a daily occurrence in Europe.

Cuthbert 07-26-2016 07:09 AM

Honestly it's not going to be long before people start carrying out revenge attacks on mosques, walking in with firearms and spraying everyone in there.

Even though we know this has nothing to do with the RoP™ :(

That doesn't already happen? Fire bombings and other attacks on mosques are still common here following 9/11. Let's hope there aren't as many reactionary idiots there who will give ISIS exactly what it wants.

A couple of mosques have had fires but people actually being killed, no. Some people put some bacon on the doorstep of a mosque recently though. Got prison sentences for it too.

:laughing: so you do have the reactionary idiots then. It's like they think pork is a Muslim kryptonite when in reality they can throw it away and just not eat it.

Whenever I hear about dumb **** like this, it always makes me want to punch the EU in the face. Are bacon crimes really worth prosecuting?

Frownland 07-26-2016 12:21 PM

How dare they take away our right to harass people and vandalize their property?

Alright. Just stop right there fella. DO NOT bring bacon into this any further. Enough is enough.

Bacon and Chuck Norris are like some kind of proto-memes, I swear. Bacon is obviously good, but I don't understand the obsession.

There has to be more to the story, cause if all that happened was leaving bacon, then yeah, **** the EU. Should I be arrested if I drop some bacon on the steps of a synagogue?

Take big bacon's dick out of your mouth and think about it in these terms.

I suppose it was this thing:

Some unspecified verbal abuse was involved as well. Still the sentencing seems pretty harsh.

Frownland 07-26-2016 12:45 PM

I was thinking it was probably to make an example of them more than anything.

A large group of men setting an abnormally large fire hazard on someone's lawn is a bit farther than a couple of guys with pork.

I've done worse than that, been court and not got a prison sentence. They must have previous or something.

grindy 07-26-2016 01:00 PM

Can't say the comparison holds up well.
A burning cross on black people's property is more or less a death threat, due to the historical ties to the KKK, lynchings and all that. A bacon attack on the other hand seems kinda dickish, but nowhere near the same caliber.

Still an abnormally large fire hazard vs. pig back.

Frownland 07-26-2016 01:03 PM

My point was that they're both still hate crimes that threaten the safety of those affected. Having your mosque vandalized isn't exactly a welcome basket.

Take away the bacon and all you have is an argument so far as I can tell. Whereas a burning cross is not only far more intense of a threat, but one that has well over a century of history with murder and violence.

Frownland 07-26-2016 01:24 PM

Probably best to make sure that we don't create a new history for bacon then.

We must dispose of the bacon. Burn it on a cross and then devour it.

The bacon is filthy. Like dogs and women who show their temples.

Unless it was vandalized with wicker.

Goofle 07-26-2016 05:32 PM

Did Frownland actually just use the phrase "hate crime" unironically?

Also you can get arrested in some parts of England for cat calling so it's not really a surprise.

Frownland 07-26-2016 07:37 PM

Do hate crimes not exist now?
