Don't be a twat.  He means some group put a gun in his hands and said "go kill some people."

Maybe it was Erdogan, chief calamity of our time.

How twattish of you. No nap today?

Erdogan is going after close personal friends of mine whose only crime appears to still being alive.

If Germany is anything like Sweden getting a gun and ammo isn't rocket science. Some years back in a murder that got a lot of attention in Sweden (for other reasons) the 18 y/o chick murderer went from Rural Smalltown, Sweden to Stockholm and asked the criminals that hang out by the main subway station about buying a gun and ammo and managed to do so. IIRC. And if you're a teenage guy who lives in the ghetto you likely know someone who knows someone.

That is how I used to get beer in high school. Well, I didn't travel to stockholm.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

As for the guy, yes of course he was supplied by IS, we all know the close relationships between IS and Iran.  No doubt he is an IRGC sleeper agent carrying out this act to avenge longstanding Shi'a grievances against Ludwig the Mad.

Iran and ISIS? Not great relations.

ISIS and individual Iranians? Happened before.

Remember Man Haron Monis, the Iranian that attacked Lindt Cafe in Sydney?

That's exactly what the Iranian Ambassador told me at lunch today.

Still clinging to the attempts to find a way to pin this on the "Right"?
Not sure how you got from "crazy" to "right".

In Europe, the challenge is getting a gun legally, not getting a gun at all.

This was by no means aimed at you.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Süddeutsche Zeitung claims that the gun was a reactivated theater weapon from Slovakia and was bought via the "Darknet".

According to the police, reactivated weapons are the most common illegal firearms used in armed crimes in Germany, as new handguns are a lot rarer and highly expensive on the black market (several thousand Euro for the simplest pistol).

Yeah, reactivated guns are usually the easiest way to get an illegal gun in Spain, too.
