MOVING STORY: Even though it's being widely reported the shooter in Munich was a right winger...

Munich Police will not back off the declaration this was terrorism.

Could it be that Germany refuses to practice the American terrorism double standard? Maybe Germans think terrorism should be called terrorism even when the terrorism doesn't involve Muslim people?

they WANT race/religious war in Germany. they're probably happier if it's some sort of neoNazi/skinhead type

To the right wingers in this country, Terrorism can only be claimed when the shooters are Brown and have a mid-east accent..

It is being widely reported that the shooter was German-Iranian.

No evidence of being a "right-winger" - unless you mean right-winger in the fundamentalist Muslim sense of the word.
