   Crazy that just on Friday German police shot to death an Afghan man after he fatally stabbed a compatriot and wounded 3 people watching the Germany v Scotland match in Magdeburg. 4 days ago an Afghan man stabbed a Ukrainian woman in Frankfurt. The man who fatally stabbed a police officer in Mannheim a few weeks ago was also from Afghanistan.

   Lots of Islamic extremist stabbings in recent weeks. Reality should not be ignored. That said, this 39-year-old pickaxe wielding man who was shot in the leg before he could light his Molotov cocktail does not appear to match the profile of recent attackers.

2. was’t it that police shot fires at axe-person and fans paraded because of that at EURO 2024?

3. “threatened (…) with a sledgehammer”. Someone doesn’t know their tools.

4. the Olympics will be wild, i tell you that

5. Don’t they have tasers?
