This is getting crazy.

I weep for what kind of world my kids will grow up in. I honestly don't think there is any way to stop these attacks from happening again and again.

Munich shooting: Gunman Ali David Sonboly was ‘obsessed’ with mass killings, say police

Authorities believe 18-year-old German-Iranian wanted to mark anniversary of Norway massacre carried out by Anders Breivik

On Friday, after finishing his daily paper round, Ali David Sonboly prepared for what lay ahead. He armed himself with a 9mm Glock 17 pistol, packed 300 rounds of ammunition into a red rucksack and set out from his parents home at Dachauer Street, in the Maxvorstadt district of Munich on a calculated mission of murder.

The killings of nine people, including children, and wounding of 27 others by the 18-year-old German Iranian took place at a shopping centre adjacent to the city’s Olympic stadium where, in 1972, 11 Israeli athletes were held hostage and killed, along with a German police officer, by the Palestinian group Black September.

Sonboly’s attack also took place on the fifth anniversary of another act of savagery, the massacre of 77 people in Norway carried out by the neo-Nazi Anders Breivik. German police declared that there were “obvious” links between the Norwegian murders and what happened in Munich. Former classmates of Sonboly claimed that he had a photograph of Breivik as his WhatsApp profile photograph: interior minister Thomas de Maiziere disclosed that Sonboly had “researched” the slaughter carried out by Breivik...

The shooter complained that he was German and had been bullied by Turks since he was 11.
Bullying sometimes causes people to explode after a long period.

German Officials Say Munich Attack Was a “Classic Shooting Rampage;” Rule Out Terror Links

German police have labeled the deadly attack in Munich Friday a “classic shooting rampage,” but have all but ruled out terrorism links as motivation for the shooting spree outside the Olympia-Einkaufszentrum shopping mall. The 18-year-old German shooter of Iranian descent killed nine people, most of them teenagers, and injured 27 others before taking his own life. He was found dead with 300 bullets in his backpack along with a pistol.

The teenage gunman was indentified as Ali Sonboly and appeared to suffer from mental health issues, according to German authorities. The attack was premeditated, as the young man sent Facebook messages from a young woman’s account attempting to lure people to McDonald’s Friday afternoon. At around 6 p.m. Sonboly opened fire at the fast-food restaurant...
