Before I begin my actual comment, I would like to apologize in advance for my inadequate level of English proficiency. I am not a native speaker of the world's current lingua franca which unfortunately leads to me making numerous embarrassing mistakes being made whenever I attempt to communicate using this language. Whenever I am reminded of how I lack the ability to convey my thoughts in an eloquent manner, I feel as though I have committed a cardinal sin, as though every English teacher in the world is simultaneously shaking their head and sighing due to how utterly disappointed they are at me.
Although I know that saying sorry to those of you who are reading my comment will not change the fact that I fail miserably to write and speak perfect English, I am writing this as a way to deter a certain type of people who cannot stand poor English (Also known informally as Grammar Nazis) from mocking me by posting unwanted and unnecessary comments detailing my every blunder. In my humble opinion, making grammatical errors should be perfectly acceptable as native speakers should not expect non-native speakers to be able to communicate in their second or third languages eloquently. If you are able to completely understand what the other person wrote, is there really a problem with what they've written? No, because the entire concept of communication is the exchange of information between other intelligent beings, which means that no matter how the exchange of information is made, as long as the information is accurately shared there is not a fundamental issue with their ability to communicate. To see it in another way, remember that someone who isn't fluent in English is fluent in another language. When you think about it this way, isn't it impressive for someone to speak a second language in any capacity? Having empathy and respect are qualities that are sorely missing for far too many people these days, especially on the internet.
That being said, I am aware that not all netizens who correct others are doing it to ridicule and shame. There are some who do so with the intent to help others improve and grow. However, displaying the failures of other people publicly will cause the person who is criticized to feel negative emotions such as shame and sadness due to the fact that their mistake has been made obvious which severely undermines the point they were trying to make in spite of their unfamiliarity with the English language. In most circumstances people are not looking for language help when they post anything online. Most people just want to enjoy themselves and have a good time on the internet which is why I would not encourage correcting other people regardless of your intentions. If you really do want to help others with their spelling or grammar, I would highly recommend you to help via messaging privately because not only will you not embarrass anyone, you can also go more in-depth with your explanation which I'm sure the other person will greatly appreciate if they want help, but I digress. I know that I've written a bit of an essay, but I hope I've made my points clear.
Anyways, here is the comment I wanted to make:
shid And coom,

I thought you said when Jerusalem goes too far in the title

@bastiat He does but Sue just had another kid so he mentioned that the second channel would have very occasional uploads for a while.
The difference between a vulture and a journalist is that the vulture has the decency to wait until you are dead before picking your bones clean.
No they don't, but we get what you're trying to say
Edit: didn't want to say in case it was too long-winded, but judging by the replies, the obvious must be said...
... Vultures won't always wait until you're dead. They'll perch above you and shit on you. They'll land next to you and hop around. One will even come and peck at your toe
They'll do all this to test that you're at death's door; to see if you'll fight back and resist.
Basically: they *will* eat you alive, but *only* if you're blind, crippled, starved, or otherwise unable to defend yourself (as good as dead)
If you still have some pep and fight them off, they'll flap just out of arms reach and wait for you stop resisting
Which most often _means_ death, but does not always necessarily mean so.
Hope this helps.
Same with lawyers

@@theophrastusbombastus1359 Then why do Vultures eat "dead" things vultures won't risk their own lives attacking animals that show any sign of fighting back, that's how the lengths they'll go to avoid any smoke with the living.
The only time a vulture will seek conflict with living animals, is when their pocket checking Cheetah's for their kill.
"Freedom of the Press" wasn't meant to refer to the rights of journalists, but the right of publication and distribution of information. "The Press", as in journalists, should *never* be given the untouchable pedestal they're given.
The press is literally everyone. But journos wanna have their privileges
Bingo. It is why I have no problem with journalists going to jail in certain situations. The freedom is to publish and was only meant to be the freedom to publish because otherwise you enshrine special rights.
It has been perverted by modern journalism.
It doesn’t matter what Freedom of the Press used to mean. Now it means the freedom of an elite group to have exclusive control of the narrative. Freedom of the Press MUST be ended at all costs.
The term of "the press" has always refereed to the printing press. The entire point was to allow freedom in the dissemination of information.

@@A_Black_Sheep94 Even the hostages could have ended the situation if they just took the gun in 19:39 (assuming this actually happened as described).
Everyone in this situation is completely ridiculous. The hostages who didn't run when their captors fell into a drug-induced sleep, the journalists who endangered the hostages, the pair of criminals who had no business getting as far as they did and the cops who fumbled their advantages at every turn.
During the Falklands war before the British made their landing at Goose Green the BBC decided it was a good idea to broadcast the entire British landing plan on live international television including a map of where exactly the Brits would be landing. Even the Argentinians saw it and thought that the British couldn’t be that stupid.
In WW2 the American submarines were able to run at a certain depth and the Japanese had their depth charges well above that depth. A newspaper published that and the Japanese set their depth charges to go off deeper.
In the Falklands War, British media also helpfully broadcast why the Argentinian air forces bomb’s were not always exploding, and explained the correct way they should drop them to ensure they armed fully by pulling the aircraft up then releasing so they flew in an upward arc to the target ensuring the detonator fully primed before impact, this cost many British servicemen’s lives and sunk Navy vessels

Most banks are instruct their employees NOT to hit the alarm until the robbery is over
The reason is to avoid a police cluster fuck like this one

@@markyhar2241 I used to work for a company that was providing security for 2 or 3 different banks, and usually was telling this kind of things to their employees, some managers would even ask the guards not wear uniform or to stay outside of the building and away from the door 😉

@@tomlxyz Yeah, how well is that working out for San Francisco?

This entire story is like a fever dream.
It's like the entirety of society unraveled as a system that only works if everyone unanimously agree on how to behave, so as soon as 2 complete idiots start doing whatever they want, everyone around them have no idea how to respond. It's like a game that glitched out and all the npcs have no code to respond.
The amazing irony with journalists, is that while trying their hardest to smear and slander everyone they possibly can, they give everyone legitimate reasons to dunk on them through their own braindead and soulless actions.
I remember when I was going into college, I had two ideas in mind to pursue. Acting or Journalism. Thankfully I dropped out of college.

At least there was a bit of karma there. Kathy Scruggs the main journalist behind the persecution campaign against him went to meet the devil 4 or 5 years later. She was a big fan of hard liquor and white powder and it caught up with her. She never apologized for what she did to him.
The first part of this story seemed like an ‘edgy’ comedy, then the journalists showed up, & it turned into a weird, & aggravating, horror story…
A lot of people keep saying: "These days everyone is fucked up because of smartphones, they film the danger instead of doing something!".
Things are fucked up way before smartphones and this is one of the stories proving it
The incentives that drove these journalists to disregard human life just to get an exclusive scoop were limited to said journalists, thanks to technological progress we've extended those incentives to every single man, woman and child.
So, no, we're not fundamentally different, but average people back then sure as hell wouldn't idly stand by and film you getting beaten to death on the metro. People that say otherwise are trying to gaslight you IMO
Smartphones spread the disease that journalists already had.
Germans are ahead of the curve just like Canadians are behind it.
Some people want attention, and when it's given to them in a metaphorical spotlight, you see just how dumb they are. Journalists are scum that prey on whoever is cast in that spotlight. They want their story and it doesn't matter if it's true or half-truth/half-lie or just exaggeration. They like drama and they will sensationalize it.

The European "justice system" is cringe.
The worst thing is that there were some officers of a highly trained tactical police unit disguised as civilians, who could have ended the hostage situation at Cologne. One police officer even had his arm around the neck of one of the criminals at one point. But there were too many journalists close to the car, so it was too risky to end the situation there.
Also, later when the police rammed the car on the Autobahn there were actually GSG9 special forces waiting just a few kliometers ahead, which were specialized for situations like this, ready to strike. Nethertheless the police decided to try it themselves without getting help from GSG9, because obviously they wanted to end the situation inside their own area of responsibility.
fucking disgracefull, all these people so much selfishness.
I was constantly wondering why the GSG9 hadn’t taken over from the police, but now to find out that they had been called in deal with the threat but pride got in the way of letting professionals and people solely trained to handle end these situation and likely save the hostages is just aggravating.
@@haileron same. My first thought was "why the fuck weren't GSG9 called in straight away, since they're trained for these exact kinds of situations...."

@Tacidian It was incomprehensible since just 10 short years prior Germany had to deal with the Baader-Meinhoff terror group. Plus, the press already made an ass of themselves during the Munich olympics. But obviously no lessons were learned.
On top of all that, Germany's media landscape had changed massively with the introduction of private TV stations. Up Until 1985 there were only 3 public channels, and those were offline for the better part of the day. Reporters got a bit rabid - to say the least - with their 24/7 opportunities.

@@tomlxyz no brother they don't consume it without hesitation, they do it because it's human nature to watch a train wreck, why do you think there's apt description of a conquistadors war hound ripping an Aztec soldiers throat open but when it comes to describing peace time most history skips over that? Humans don't give a shit about peace, that's a smoke break for a civilization, we love chaos and fucking violence, otherwise life would get boring.

Thank you for telling this story...
I was in Cologne at the time this happened. As I was only 8 at the time, the only things I really remembered was the immense fear amongst the normal people, the 2 perps mug, Silke's terrified face on the TV and the shock and sorrow for the young innocent victims afterwards...
I think the most shameful and straight out inhuman thing of it all was when Emanuele got shot, and one of the journalists literally asked another journalist to hold up his bleeding head for the camera because it would make a better and more dramatic picture that way. A young boy who just got shot....he got completely de-humanized by this one journalist, he didn't treat him like a human anymore, but like a story. Nothing but a thing to put in the papers. Absolutely disgraceful.
The fact that Silky kept saying "Yea, considering everything I'm doing pretty well. - Yea I'm doing okay, feeling alright, I just hope that they won't kill another person. - Yea, I'm doing good." just shows, in how much shock she was, but also that she did not really have a lot of respect for the hostage takers.
Just because someone doesn’t freak out in such circumstances doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re in shock.

The Gladbeck incident is one that gets glossed over so much, it’s pretty much been entirely ignored until the last three years or so. It’s like nobody wanted to talk about it meanwhile we’re being inundated with these disgusting reality TV shows. And Gladbeck was the original reality TV show gone off the rails. It showed the absolute worst in media and the absolute worst in the people who consume main stream media. Silke was so young and her death so unnecessary. Let’s not forget about that obscene jail sentence that the Germans handed down to this celebrity murderer. It was an absolute slap in the face, you look at that now and that’s not justice. They may have gone to court but Silke never got justice another did her family. And peoples reluctance to say her name is really just giving her the final death where she is sent into a black hole and no one ever speaks her name again! Or the name of the boy that was shot on the bus, whose name I cannot remember off the top of my head ( I’m so sorry ). But none of them have had justice and it’s unfair and it’s not right. It’s one of the darkest moments in media history besides a few other horrible incidents. But this one a whole other level.
you can bring up the matter of injustice and unfair for victims for every homicide.
You dont even remember the name of Emanuele, but complain people forgetting about Silke.
I think it is more like people only talk about Silke, since she was such a pretty girl and was more present on fotos.
Anyway, every murder case has the tragic of an unnecessary loss and there are so many of them, nobody talks about it, especially when they were victim of a serial killer.

the two idiots actually took the bus hostage in my hometown. its important to say, that the police caught up with them after they arrived in bremen. they actually spent a full day at the bus stop where they spoke to the press. after they took off in the bus, all of the journalists followed them with even new ones joining them on the car chase so that they blocked the police from overtaking so the police couldn’t get near the bus. there was also a cop that fell out of the car during the chase
@Tacidian das war inkompetenz der polizei gepaart mit inkompetenz der presse, wobei einzelne journalisten unbedingt die krassen einblicke haben wollten, um selber auflage zu verkaufen und sich selber zu bereichern und sich durch die story für höhere aufgaben zu qualifizieren. mir tun die beiden opfer leid, die sterben mussten, weil die polizei nicht koordiniert gearbeitet hat und journalisten so voyeuristisch wie nie zuvor ihr eigenes vorankommen über menschenleben gestellt haben.
Not only did the Policeman fall out the car but he died from it even :(
@@IWDOM Me too.
Unpredictable!? They couldn't predict giving the hostage takers a getaway car and not following/tracking it somehow might be an issue? I think the cops are dumber than the mad lads
The Car that they Got was tracked. They Just stole one on the way that wasnt
I was wondering when this finally will end up here. Living in Germany, I know this incident in detail. It`s insane in so many layers.

The hostages didn't stay in the car because they were scared.
They stayed in the car because they were good German citizens, who do as they are told by any, and all, authority figures.
Be they hostage takers, or the government.
If you would listen to a psycho with a shit mo and let him run your country, you'll listen to anyone
I dont think thats right.. being a hostage prolly means goin into a child-like mode. When you tell a hostage the car's gonna explode as soon as you gonna touch the key, the hostage moat likely is gonna comply (BundesNachrichtenDienstmode off)

Can you imagine the frustration of those medics in that 20 minutes?
Police be damned I'm comin through.
The longest 20 minutes.
You know if the cops had been smart and just disguised an officer as a journalist and then just had him pop both of em in the head during a fake interview all of this could have been prevented.
This was not a Hollywood Movie Dude
@@MrNelloxx Police go undercover in real life too. The problem was these police were astoundingly incompetent.
@Mr.Nelloxx No but it really could've been done easy.
For a country where everybody has guns nobody ever seems to use them when it's needed.
@@grahamhill676 this happened in germany. Germany is not a country known for guns at all. You cant even own an airsoft gun without a liscence over there.

I was already familiar with this story. But I found myself on the edge of my seat hoping that Silke would somehow make it during your excellent telling of this story. What a shitshow... that turned tragic 😞 Rest in peace Emmanuel and Silke.
The story started as sort of hilarious in its absurdity and then they started blasting a kids brains out.... Boy that escalated quikly
The cops had met their mental match!

That was an awesome quote and very fitting for this story. "You cant take a S. In the street, and expect the flies to leave it alone." 😂. I couldn't have said it better myself. Thank you for that.
Europeans: "we're better than you, we don't let our citizens have guns."
Americans: "if this was in our country, a citizen would have walked up with the journalists and punched both those guy's tickets."
The Swiss: "they wouldn't have made it down the street."
Oh yeah that televised in America in that horrible on going situation? You are talking *MULTIPLE* people hitting the off switch on those douchebags. Especially in the red states like Texas and Arizona. Not gonna happen. Although the cops would've one tapped with an AR-15 pretty quickly.
Russia would've used a tank. 🇷🇺
The Swiss are the only Europeans who don't absolutely disgust me with their weapon legislature.
Everyone else in Europe are disgustingly sheepish and just roll over for any old thing, even total disarmament.
Guess that's what happens when you live under monarchs most of your history: Your serfs learn to kiss the b00t

@Tacidian what's up with the Swiss? Are all their police specialists or something?
@@kieranadamson3224 highest rate of automatic firearm ownership in the world, last I checked. They have one of the lowest legal ages for firearm ownership (of countries that actually _have_ laws on it) and have managed to stay neutral while the entire continent around them devolved into bloodshed and war *TWICE* because of the fear of having to fight a well armed, well trained militia in a country whose topography looks like a heart monitor.
_One does not simply walk into the Alps and fuck with the Swiss._
I've had a great opinion of you since I started watching not too long ago. I wasn't even aware of the nazi pug thing as if that would have mattered because it was a obvious joke. I've learned a lot about the U.K. among other things from this channel.

This is why Die Hard has the most important message of any Christmas movie: The press are the enemies of the people.
Journalists deserve the same criticism and mockery they practice on others.
No authority should be legally protected from criticism or mockery.

@@TheNotoriousJ0B facts
Journalists have truly always been this way all over the world.
Criminal does a crime:
Journalist: right so a little to the left….Jeramy get the bounce board we need a bit more lighting on them. Hey Mike how are we on sound? We’re good? Great bring in the kids! Now Jimmy just…… oh he already knows what to do
Congrats on your newborn! Hope you and your family have a blessed day.
My thought listening throughout this whole story was why “Why has the GSG9 not been called up to take over for the situation?”. As they were literally formed to intervene in high risk hostage crises like the Munich Hostage Crisis where the police were just too under equipped and undertrained to deal with the situation.
I think the problem was as Dankula said , the cops knew these people and thought they could deal with them because they were just local misfits.
The police should have dressed up as journalists
This story is the epitome of mass hysteria.
Journalists are just literal clout chasers. It isnt about the story, it isnt about the people, it is about THEM getting the story and THEM interviewing the people. Its pure selfishness given human form. Even Critics think they are like demigods, that the unwashed public ears wait to hear their trivial opinion on a movie, on a restaurant or on a political matter. They are like entitled Rock stars, you need to treat them with respect regardless of what they say or do, Listen to them and believe it no matter how often they get it wrong and if you DARE question them.
At least cops sometimes stop more crimes than they perpetuate. What do Journalists do?
Nothing brings me joy like that tweet of the journalist crying about how he worked on a story for a year only for it to get tweeted out
Dudes iq was so low because they put all their points into luck
I've said it before and I'll say it again, please please put CC on while listening to Dankula. UA-cam translating Scottishisms is fookin hilarious.
I’m amazed every single journo wasn’t arrested for aiding in the murder of two kids this is insane
Bro their "heist" was like a Its always sunny in Philadelphia episode
"Please let this be a normal field trip..."
with Hans and deiter? NO WAY!
With the press? NO WAY!!!
It's like if Beavis and Butthead robbed a bank lol.
Heh heh heh, we're gonna score
If Beavis and Butthead had spent a week spun up on crank.
“Hey boys have you seen two bank robbers by any chance?
Yeah uh they went that way uhuhuhuh”
this is an incredible story. so many cluster fu**s. Enjoyable, thank you!
This whole case is so incredibly frustrating and infuriating from start to finish with the final and maybe biggest F you being that one of these scumbags got the Venables treatment and now is free, with a new identity and lives off the taxes of law-abiding citizen, this stuff makes me wish I was a believer cause the idea of a hell for these people is pretty appealing right now to me.
I watched this, heartbroken for Silke, thinking: “With all of those people around, why didn’t somebody just end it?”
Then I remembered… no 2A.
Delusional yank. Guns are the cause of this problem, not the solution.
And that right there is why America is objectively Better 🇺🇲

The hostages that wouldn't run when left completely alone for long periods of time hurts my head. I can't imagine being so unwilling to ever lift a single finger to save your own life. It's the same mindset that votes to disarm themselves for the good of the government.
Tbf there's a lot of random possibilities that could've happened. With your life on the line like that it's probably terrifying. Yeah they should've done something. Personally if the guy was asleep I'd have grabbed the gun and just shot him lol
I think it's what they call "fight, flight or freeze" when your adrenaline has been soaking in your brain and you're logically trapped from either fighting or fleeing you end up almost paralysed.
Focusing with all your might on being still enough to not get shot isn't something you can easily just turn off plus your brain just goes to mush. Humans are well adapted to survival, if a hyena had attacked them they could run from it or beat it to death with a stick but facing a life or death situation which requires inaction just breaks human instincts.
32 people vs 2 guys. All it takes is for two guys to control the arms with the gun and 30 other chads to start kicking. Its literally sheep mindset.
That was some great journalism count dankula! I hope you got a big bonus from youtube for this one! :)
One thing I love is that sometimes is that with the title being so simple, you can still guess what the video is about. But the circumstances is unknown, so you have to watch.
It is super weird that after the hostage situation, the press in germany decided to "redifine and better their code of honor".... I cant tell whether they forgot about this or if they behaved even worse back in the day.
When he said "don't worry, this one was in Germany" I was so relieved lmao😂
