The attack was most likely a Muslim terror attack. As has emerged due to French policemen speaking out in anger over the French interior minister, the man was under surveillance by a french special force monitoring Muslim terror suspects in France, since after the attacks on Charlie Hebdo he commented with "serves them right". French state attorney now probes this as a case of terror. The french interior monster is under pressure for playing down the attack and rejected to call it terror, he even refused to call it murder and instead called it a violent episode or something like that. He should even have given order that the police should not do it either. The man worked in an IT department of the french police where he dealt with the priavae adresses and real names of French police officers. Thats why the police now is deeply worried, since it is unknown if and to whom he has given these data which potentially could make policemen prone for blackmailing or violent retaliation and attacks on their private life and families.


In Germany meanwhile they want to widen the identifcation duty of police officers. In asmaller number of states the ymust wear numbers so that they oculd internally be identified if complaints get laid against the, for exmaple abuse of power or excessive force, but in most staes they must wear name badges which in these times of the itnernet can be enough to idntify polciemen'S living places and families. I agree with the numbersbadges, but i oppose the name badges, it is insane and a potential desaster for the police officers. But they want to widen the name badges over here, having them in the states as well where so far there are only badges with numbers.
