Murderous Islamic terrorists have feelings too?

Murderous Islamic terrorists have feelings too?

I would imagine their primary feeling is angry. Occasionally hungry or very angry.

He will probably sue for emotional distress.

I dont think this has to be about whether or not the kid was pro German, pro Iranian, pro Muslim, or whatever so much as the fact that a citizen trying to distract a gunman and prevent more shootings is at risk for 'insulting' the gunman. Its just ****ing nutz.

Oh...we are more 'there' than people are willing to admit.

And it's already here, and it's going to get worse. Soon, we'll have this level of stupidity here, if we don't already.

You have to be kidding!

and yet, no, this story isn't from one of the internet tabloids. It's for real.

He could be charged with "insults to the detriment of the Dead." OMG. He wasn't dead when the insults were being made, and, if he had been, he'd never have heard them.

What a crock.

Europe is not exactly well known for caring about free speech. The people I have talked to about this from Germany like to rationalize it with Hitler.

Damn right! Is Keemstar gone yet? I haven't actually bothered to check any of his crap lately.

Nope he's not gone (but he was for awhile). He's still the host of DramaAlert.

But all of their videos have a massive amount of dislikes, and everyone in the comments despises him (for obvious reasons).

**** Keemstar. He's about as trustworthy and honest as Hillary Clinton.

Okay, even Hillary isn't as dishonest as Keem! :lol:

Yeah, well, we have a First Amendment so that insanity wouldn't fly here:


But according to local daily paper Tageszeitung Munchen, Salbey is now being investigated by German prosecutors and could face charges himself.

Spokesperson Florian Weinzierl from the State Prosecutor’s office of Munich confirmed that Salbey is being investigated.

It has not been confirmed whether charges will be brought or what they will include, but Weinzierl suggested they could include “insults to the detriment of the Dead.”

Why do I have a feeling all this poutrage is over a bad Google translation of an article in a German newspaper?

Source please? Does that exchange begin before the gunman had shot anyone? Kind of looks like it.

You won't be able to understand the video if you don't speak German.

Trouble is, according to the link above the gunman was a fan of Adolf Hitler and the far-right anti-Islamic Norwegian terrorist Anders Breivik; he was a German proud of his Aryan (Iranian) heritage who hated Arabs and Turks. It's like that saying goes, when you assume things you make an ass out of yourself.
