FRANKFURT, Aug 25 (Reuters) - The suspect in custody for a stabbing rampage in the western German city of Solingen that killed three people and injured eight is a 26-year-old Syrian man, authorities said early on Sunday.

      So if it’s a German stabbing someone should we then focus on that? Or whatever you hate at the moment I guess (women, foreigners, gays, … ?)

      What a shitty take.

        If the german has a terrorist / right wing extremist background? Yes most certainly we should. And we do, all the time when a racist crime is committed.

        How the fuck is that “a shitty take”? The only shitty take I see here is the assumption I’m a right winger because I think we should call an Islamist shoe a shoe.

          You are attacking a complete straw man: The thread you’re responding started with a blanket all-muslims-are-bad comment. Then @rotkehle responded that that message seemed kinda Nazi.

          You then came up with the idea that we’re all defending a knife murderer. We’re not.

          Please stop at this point.

          Feel free to write to me privately. What you’re doing is just ban evasion.

          (Although I’ll be honest … I am not going to discuss the idea that “hatespeech is wery normal and must not be suppressed”. Free speech has its limits, in my view anyway.)

          You’re free to speak, moderators are free to van you.

          If you can’t handle the consequences of the bullshit you’re spouting, that’s sad for you.

          Hate speech and racism do not belong in this community.

          The fact you’re circumventing a ban to protest just makes you a very disappointing individual.
