I find this post to be very bad taste, through I'm sure you have the best intentions with it, but I still suggest you delete it.

The reaction to the attack have been rather dignified yet. Even Pia Kjærsgaard think we should wait until we have more information about the reason for the attack and who the attackers was.

It's bad taste to say that murder is bad?

Antonio I don't feel like fighting right now, while I'm unlikely to know the victim, Copenhagen are not bigger, than it may be someone I know.

I'm sorry about that. I know very well how it feels when the city you live in is under attack. My intention certainly wasn't to start a fight, I found your post genuinely confusing.

Why would he bring Chapel Hill shooting, what relevance do it have to a murder and likely terror attack in Denmark? I think it's sad those three people was murdered, but bringing it up in this thread, is like bringing ISIS up in the thread about those three murders.

I'm actually following the SJW/intersectioanlist line on this one. Since the reaction to the Chapel Hill shooting was largely "why is no one who complains about Islamic terrorism complaining about this!?" Somehow doing that is apparently Islamophobic? Whatever.

You don't think it's in bad taste to use a tragedy in order to score some sort of point against SJWs?

He doesn't make a point against SJWs, he say he follow their line, and I no longer think it's bad taste, it goes far beyond bad taste.

I've heard that the attacker is confirmed dead? Hopefully the terror is over.

A Jewish synagoge was attacked (where a  bar mitzva was celebrated) later last night and a 37 year old Jewish man was killed and two cops wounded. Later the suspected killer was shot and killed at Nørrebro Train Station affter he opened fire on the police.

The victims until now have been:

Finn Nørgaard (55) film instructor (no children, unmarried, but in a relationship)
Dan Uzon (37) economist (I have seen no informations about his family Edit: he was unmarried and had no children)

The killer's name have not been publicised, but he lived in Mjølnerparken a housing project in northern Nørrebro with 2500 people, 85,5% are either immigrants or children of immigrants.

While I wrote this a second person have been arrested.

Do they think it was a copycat attack (which intuitively seems more 'likely' than the alternatives) or...? Deeply depressing stuff though. Urgh.

The police treat it as a terror attack, it's all they have said, they also say they suspect the man they killed was the killer, and not just some random dude opening fire on the police.

That should tell how many conclusions they jump to. They haven't told the public what they think was the reason for the attack was, even the politicians have hold back from coming to conclusion yet. So they haven't indicated whether they think it's a copycat. Of course everyone else have made the conclusion.

Dan Uzan was also former elite basketball player, team leader for his clubs veteran team and involved in a lot of volunteer work. Israeli dad/Danish mum.

Both the death sounds like really good guys, which makes it even more sad.

Yes, Dan especially sound like a really nice person (using his free time as trainer and guard for the synagoge). through at least they didn't leave any young children behind.

BTW have you found out anything about the killer ethnicity? His name seem to be rather normal Arabic, but I haven't heard any informations about his ethnicity.

So the time and location of the funeral was made public? I think they should have kept it secret, for this exact reason.

There're one Muslim burial ground in Denmark and it was up to the family, how they would do it, and there was no endangering of the public.

Also from a practical POV this is excellent to make the scum show themselves.

BTW there's between 200-270 000 Muslims in Denmark, so so over 0,2% of all Danish Muslims took part in his burial.
