    Default Shooting at German Synagogue, 2 dead

    https://abcnews.go.com/International...rmany-66155503

    A heavily armed assailant ranting about Jews tried to force his way into a synagogue in Germany on Yom Kippur, Judaism's holiest day, then shot two people to death nearby in an attack Wednesday that was livestreamed on a popular gaming site.

    The attacker shot at the door of the synagogue in the eastern city of Halle but did not get in as 70 to 80 people inside were observing the holy day.

It said a roughly 36-minute video posted online featured the assailant, who spoke a combination of English and German, denying the Holocaust before he shot a woman in the street after failing to enter the synagogue. He then entered a nearby kebab shop and killed another person before fleeing....

    This sounds like a guy I used to have to work with. Except he would've been blaming jews for the banking and monetary system. Live streaming isn't anything new. Been a few cases of it over the last few years.

    You could watch the entire NZ ordeal if you wanted too - it's pretty common for them to record it or stream it, has been for a while. Anything to get the 'message' out.

    More importantly, how twisted is it for people to view these streams.

    Agreed, and yes, I know they've streamed these for a while now...but it's still disturbing. Even more disturbing is how common the events are...hardly any news coverage, and then on to the next Trump tweet. Sad.

    In the US, two hate murders is nothing, so that's why it isn't covered more. If it were dozens of people killed, the story would be bigger.
