Looks like they got that bastard in a routine traffic checkpoint.

Germany is celebrating right now.

I find it a little tasteless to say "christmas has come early" in regards to someone being shot and killed... no matter how horrific the person.

I find it exactly the right taste. I mean who are we offending here? You don't like terrorists being killed?

Would be better if he was caught alive for investigative purposes, but I'm dropping 0 tears for this piece of shit regardless.

How on Earth did he manage to reach Milan? All the borders were on maxim alert, how did he manage to cross at least two countries until reaching Italy?

Everyone is innocent until proven otherwise. Merry Christmas.

It doesn't really take long to get from Berlin to France. And the France-Italy border most likely wasn't as heavily secured as the Germany borders.

he shot a police officer in Italy before being shot himself, definitely not innocent by any metric

Well, didn't hear about that, ok. But I still refuse to celebrate the killing of any person. It won't bring back any innocents, it only gets us further down the road of the terrorists. If we really want to make a difference, that should be seen in our behaviour. Cheering for the death of someone is barbaric, it's exactly what those kind of people do.

But anyway, I'm not sad or anything either, don't get me wrong. I just don't want to party because of that incident. 

He got what he wanted, a violent death as a "soldier of ISIS". His family will receive money as compensation from ISIS.
