if its Muslim extremists maybe this will be a wake up call to some of these Western European nations to stop allowing a giant influx of people with opposite cultures and beliefs. Inviting your neighbors into your house is only a nice concept if you coexist well... which is not necessarily possible if the cultures you share (or rather don't share) is very limited. 

Obviously at this point in time I don't think the cause for this terrorism is confirmed. Maybe it was individual lunatics, maybe some fanatics of some random organization, maybe some other religion-

but if it was yet another Western European Muslim extremist attack then I truly hope its a wake up call.

 

and this is extremely relevant because in recent times there has been a massive allowance of influx of refugees into Western Europe. Not only can that destroy economies but it also can get people killed if two opposite cultures collide.

It'd be the same thing as if thousands of Christians suddenly immigrated to the capital of Iran- it'd be a nightmare most likely. There's nothing racist or discriminatory or unfair with understanding that to SOME degree the safe and logical thing in life is to have some level of boundaries and seperation between cultures. If anything understanding that is in fact RESPECTING the fact that there are so many varying and different cultures and beliefies in the world

 

doesn't mean one is necessarily wrong or right inherently. But the reality is what we keep seeing are immigrants from Islamic countries flowing into the West and terrorism. We're not seeing Bhuddists or Christans flow into the Middle East blowing up their mosques or football stadiums.

 

 

At any rate whoever the perputrators are, hopefully they're found and given as little attention as possible. The last thing we want is to glorify the killers here and give them what they want (whether they're alive anymore)- attention and a legacy.

terrible tragedy for those involved. More than the dead, I sympathize with their loved ones who will be left behind to miss them

That's a fallacy. None of the terrorists so far were random people who only got in among refugees. All of them were legal citizens. Meaning that even with closed borders those people will get what they want. Closing borders is certainly not a solution to this problem. There simply is no solution and people pretending they have a simple solution clearly have no idea what they're talking about.

The problem is not borders or islam. The problem is a general acceptance of religion and the lax treatment of obviously harmful individuals. If you let people believe and make them think that harmful ideologies are ok then of course you will breed terrorists. What needs to be fixed is not the borders or security, what needs to be fixed is people's attitude towards lunatics and other harmful individuals.
