German theater shooting down the memory hole!

Has anybody noticed that the German theater shooting/hostage incident has completely disappeared after the day it happened.

Gotta wonder!

What German shooting?

these are the police capable of taking care of this kind of incident with no casualties.

He was carrying two highly convicing blank-firing replica guns and a fake hand grenade.

Criminal psychologists have suggested his intention may have been to commit “suicide by cop” by provoking police to shoot him in order to protect hostages’ lives.

That's interesting, early reports were up to 50 dead.

And so called "journalists" wonder why they don't have any creditability left.

Nope, never heard of it. I'm guessing the "shooting" was just the perp being shot? Kinda hard to kill theather goers with blanks and fake grenades.

clearly time to ban toy guns and grenades; maybe create a 'no theatre list' when certain films are playing

From the same story
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/50-injured-germany-movie-theater-shooting-article-1.2685046

Initial media reports suggested that as many as 50 people had been injured inside the movie theater, although later, police insisted that no one besides the attacker had been injured.


None of the moviegoers was shot, although as many as 25 people may have been injured by tear gas, local media reported.


So it appears they were only injured by the Police response and not the "blanks shooter"

Well yeah....it's okay if there is "collateral damage" when police go after a mass shooter, but heaven forbid we let the military do it's job of going after ISIS if there's the possibiliy of any civilians getting killed. (sarcasm intended)
