Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think Bavaria is basically Germany's Texas too...

In some ways, yeah but not as bad

Bavaria is the richest part of Germany.

Yeah, it's truly terrible that if there are cases like these that almost always already had to leave the country or had some major mental health issue get used to be racist against other immigrants and asylum seekers instead of improving the immigration and integration procedure

I tried, but didn't achieve to understand your post.

Again under Bavarian jurisdiction by a refused, but failed to detain asylum seeker. It it not a problem of missing laws, it is a failure to execute existing laws.

EDIT: OK, the official sources corrected the status of the driver from "illegal refugee" to "legal asylum seeker". Still, this action feeds votes into the rightwing corners.

According to more recent insights that is not the case. The driver ha a work permit and has not been known for any crimes. He was the witness in a crime which is why he was known to police.

Yep, that is the state of information now. When I wrote my post, the official information was different.

It showed that your post was 7 minutes old when I posted. The information was available earlier.

But it proves the point I wanted to make. Big claims need to be verified diligently.
