  1. Learn from London, even my local market street has anti-terror bollards, the entrance to every tube station is surrounded by them and motor traffic is removed completely around public events. You can't trust drivers near these spaces.

  2. Wake up. Do you guys remember the phrase “LGBT for Hamas”?
    I want to make it clear that I don't agree with everything the LGBT community stands for, but I still believe this situation is deeply concerning. I believe in freedom, and I believe people have the right to live their lives and practice their beliefs as long as they respect the rights and boundaries of others.
    What I find confusing is the idea of feminist and LGBT activists supporting or aligning themselves with Hamas. I voted for Trump, and I know that many people on the right don't support the LGBT community. However, I still believe that everyone has the right to their freedom, as long as they respect the freedoms and boundaries of others.
    Hamas, in my view, does not represent those same values of individual freedom. Their ideology is based on a religious and political system that is fundamentally different from the principles of individual liberty that many people in the West value.

  3. Perhaps some cultures and values do not mix well in certain environments. Can you imagine the LGBT community living freely in Iran or Somalia? Perhaps immigration policy should change. These incidents happen every year in Germany; the question is not why they happen, but when the next one will occur.

  4. So, how are they going to twist this and blame it on Afd, white men, racism, trump, whatever it is "pick your gaslighting" to ignore and move on without ever doing anything about it. When is Germany going to wake up?

  5. Interesting USA and RF in the same group. Got it! It is all D Trump and V Putin fault. Another German $25 billion gift to Ukraine fixes everything and sends a message to D Trump and V Putin

  6. Multiple similar attack…and the Media conveniently hides the perpetuators identity. They targeted the alphabet people…now all the suddenly they care about the issue.
