Diversity Comes To Sollingen

The Guardian: Germany mass stabbing: police hunt suspect after three killed at festival in Solingen

NBCnews.com: Syrian man arrested over deadly knife attack in Germany; Islamic State group claims responsibility

 The festival was, most ironically, billed as a festival of diversity:

Police in Germany are searching for an unknown suspect behind a mass stabbing at a festival on Friday night that killed three and injured eight, five of them seriously.

The knife attack took place as thousands of people gathered at the central square in the city of Solingen in the country’s west during celebrations to mark its 650th anniversary, billed as a festival of diversity.

The attacker was caught, per NBCnews, which fails to mention the nature of the festival, and the attacker claimed to be a member of the Islamic state.  The attacker had applied for asylum in Germany, and celebrated diversity and his granting of asylum by killing and wounding various diverse Germans in the name of Allah.

I for one am shocked! How can it be that a member of the "religion of peace" could do such a thing? Who could have possibly forseen this? Yeah, I know-everybody except Angela Merkel & her cronies

ccm2361: Funny how that happens, eh? As you say, completely unforeseeable.
