Hanau Shooting Update

In the last hour....through various updates, some things now start to lay out the whole landscape.

Now, 11 dead (includes shooter and his mother).

Guy was a German.  Has nothing to do with gang warfare.

Guy had a weapons license.  He probably was reviewed for competency, but that might have been ten to twenty years ago.

Guy was known on the right-wing extremist scene.

Guy had a YouTube video out there around a week ago....talking over conspiracy theories and criticizing German integration and asylum episodes.

Some type of confession note has been found.  Not much said by the police over that.

It's mostly a clean-up situation now, with authorities likely to start a new review of all gun license holders, and if they are 'safe'.  The present and time-tested method was allowing the regular doctor judge your mental state.  I'm guessing that will go away, and some review of social media usage will start up....to 'bless' you for a gun license in the future.
