Also coworkers said the victim recently broke off the relationship.

A tragedy, yes. But there is zero indication this is related to ISIS or something. It actually sounds like typical murders around the world. Some angry, scorned dude killing his woman.

And what "lying and deflecting"? These are the facts-

Does Germany have lots of crime? No

Does Germany have lots of immigrant-related crime? No

Does the U.S. have lots of crime? Yes

That's all you need to know. The fact that you will post one crime in Germany while ignoring 100 crimes in the U.S., and try and tie that one crime into stupid talking points about Merkel and immigrants and gun control shows you have no intellectual honestly whatsoever. You have an agenda and no need for facts.

How long do you think it takes to hit three violent crimes in Chicago? Five minutes? I guess we need to deport everyone in Chicago, because the crime rate isn't zero.

And where are these "three incidents"? The Munich attack had nothing to do with immigrants. What are you even referring to? I see one attack, not related to Islam or terrorism.

Germany has strict gun laws, and very low crime. No one wants to ban guns, in Germany or the U.S.
So how many times are we going to say there are more violent crimes?

The FBI reported a total of 1,203,564 violent crimes, equivalent to a violent crime rate of 386.3 per 100,000 population.

The BKA reported a total of 775,204 violent crimes, as nearly as I can compare the basis for both the FBI and BKA numbers. That amounts to a German violent crime rate of 967.5 per 100,000. That is 2.5 times the United States violent crime victimization rate.

If you are going to repeat the same thing that many times in a thread at least be correct.

I never once said he was a rerrorist or it was ISIS related:

Anyone want to place a bet with me?
A large number of ME Muslims see women as their property. So, his origin and religion is still relevant.

You continue to downplay what's going on in other countries. The sexual assaults alone are bad enough. The fact that Jews born in France have been fleeing the country because they've been targeted, and the closing of borders of other countries inform those with common sense of the problems that exist.

Please educate yourself on the subject and quit trying to convince everyone the NRA is a huge problem while refugees are not.
I still can't rep you but right on!

NOLA sounds like Goebbels.

Of course, there is lots of crime in the US, and as you see it is growing in some areas, but not all.

Chicago's murder rate soars 72% in 2016; shootings up more than 88%

There is an increase in violent crime among immigrants in Europe too.

Rapes, sexual assaults by migrants increase dramatically in Germany and Sweden

This one from the machete attack today was a Syrian refugee. The previous attack, yesterday or day before was Iranian born in Germany, iirc.
