31 Aug 2024 Four German News Stories

 1.  I ended up at a major German furniture shop yesterday.  Normally, there would be 200 cars in the parking lot and a fair amount of 'action' going on.  There were around 70 cars there and very low-key 'interest' going on. A lot more Germans being careful about spending money at present.

2.  Between Koln and Marburg...lies the town of Siegen.  Yesterday....with a fest going on in the city....a bus situation developed.  Some German woman (suspected under the influence of drug/alcohol)....pulled a knife out and three people were critically wounded, with two more slightly wounded.

32-year old gal will be questioned, and charged-up.  

3.    Yesterday....plane left Germany for Afghanistan....deportation of 28 convicted Afghan guys.  One of them....a 31-year old guy who had raped a girl in Illerkirchberg.  

What the guy's lawyer said after the plane left?  He suspects the guy will find a way to return.  On the odds of all 28 deportees returning?  I might take that bet.

4.  ISIS made a public statement yesterday over the German ban on knives....saying in the future....their 'players' would carry hammers  (meaning?  you'd have to ban hammers next).
