in less than a year last night's was the deadliest in 10 people shot and killed and police are calling it domestic terrorism across germany tonight candlelight vigils for the victims and tough questions for police and politicians how far is too far what will it take who will it take to stop the violence of the far right i bring in berlin this is the day. racism is a poison hate disappoints and. this was an attack on humanity not just on the talk on my ethnicity but in our culture and this points and exists in our society and it's responsible for far too many crimes. because of the impulse because we have to realize that the direction we've been going is wrong i'm going to that as if it's to distinguish to the government and all state institutions stand for the

protection of the rights and dignity of every person in this country i want things to change in germany we grew up here we were born here i see germany as my home and . also coming up we'll take you to the red carpet where the stars are shining to the 70th berlin film festival has begun we'll take you to the front row of sigourney weaver's new movie my salinger year crimea kicks off one of the biggest film festivals in the wild more about that on the day. our viewers on p.b.s. in the united states and all around the world welcome but we begin the day with yet another attack here in germany that police are calling domestic terrorism 10 people are dead following a shooting rampage in a town outside of frankfurt federal investigators say that a 43 year old german man armed with a gun that he had legally purchased shot and killed 9. at bars which are frequented

by immigrants he later shot and killed his mother before turning the gun on himself there is sadness and outrage across germany tonight at candlelight vigils people demanding that authorities take action about the growing threat of the far right of this attack is the 3rd far right attack in less than a year tonight the german president laid a wreath near the site of the shooting some people heard shelving mr president how many more people will have to die before you before all of you do something to stop the killing the morning after in honolulu residents woke up to speculation that far right extremism motivated attacks in their neighborhood the severity of the incident is being felt far beyond the city strong condemnation from the german chancellor. racism is poison heater it is poison and this

poison exists in our society and it is to blame for far too many crimes already. at 10 o'clock last night local time the shooter opened fire in who khobar and killed 4 people before driving to a 2nd venue where he shot dead 5 more people the bar owner son describes what happened. it was like a massacre. rampage there was blood everywhere people on the ground. my kids and i were in good spirits. i live 100 meters from here and when i went upstairs i heard 567 shots that's what i saw and. i know i was at st john's or some sort of on the one hand you feel a bit powerless and on the other hand i don't want to call it fear but it's something like that that you have to be afraid to go out on to go to a bar but. also

a good. many of the victims are believed to be of turkish or kurdish descent prosecutors say the gunmen had a motive following the discovery of a confession letter the attack is being treated as an act of terror the suspect had uploaded a video to you tube a few days earlier in which he expressed his extremist ideology. the suspect along with his 72 year old mother were later found dead in his home police are searching the property and seizing items of interest as part of their investigation . we looked out of the window and saw a lot of police offices. around 25 to 30 with 20 cars. and dogs and they were running around.

the attack comes amid growing concerns about far right violence in germany investigations are ongoing. there are lots of questions tonight joining me now is my colleague kate brady she is in one hour she is near the site of the shootings from last night good evening to you kate we know the people there have been reacting to this tragedy with sadness and with anger i mean what if you heard but if you see. well initially says a friend they certainly was a reaction of shock hey if people find it hard to believe that this happened in such a tiny nondescript town as have now and it was just right here behind me. that you might still be able to say when the fish into place but as i spoke savor most people throughout the day it became clear that there was also a sense of frustration here particularly among members of the turkish community here who to me said that they are very much sick of being seen as not being german

many of the people that i spoke to them and some of them hold a german and turkish passports and they said that they still feel that this links to today it's so yesterday for far right extremist terrorist attack they see they see themselves as still being outside as here that they're still not accepted as germans and they say that that feeds into a much bigger debate that's going on here in germany right now and of course it's not only about addressing the far right extremism here but also how germany tackles every day racism and intrigue integration as well of people from all kinds of backgrounds and the gunman as we understand it tonight he had no criminal record but he did leave a sizable footprint. what do we know. he said he did just a few days before carrying out that deadly shooting last night he actually posted a video online in which he voiced far rights ideology and following that as well

police also retrieved a letter which he actually wrote confessing to the shooting last night so of course investigations are still under way and as part of the investigations the police will of course be trying to work out exactly how he became radicalized and how and to what extent he became part of germany's far right extremist scene and if indeed he was completely working alone. do people there the ones you've talked to do they believe that authorities have a complete grasp of the scale of the far right extremist scene i mean are they ready to deal with threats like this what do they tell you so in the not i mean you are and you have to look at some of the figures of course germany does remain a safe place to live but this is the 3rd fall right extremist terror attack within the last year we saw last year and spring time and the killing and shooting of

a regional politician look a far right extremist has been arrested on suspicion of that killing and then of course in october in the eastern german city of how we saw very similar circumstances today a gunman opening fire at that time and attempts in an attempt to jump the semitic attack on a synagogue and 2 passers by were were killed there as a result so clearly something still needs to be done there have been some new measures implemented in recent months and even more positions introduced to the intelligence agency here in germany but clearly there's still a lot of work to be done. all right michael the keeper you there near the site of the shootings in hong outside of frankfurt kate thank you. well the results to the german president tonight calls for him and other political leaders to do more joining me at the big table now is patrick symmes board he's a member of germany's parliament he's a member of chancellor angela merkel's conservative c.d.u.

he's also on the committees for domestic security as well as oversight which oversees intelligence in the country is good to have you on the show this is in part what do you say to people who say that the police intelligence that they've dropped the ball that they're not doing enough we're doing a lot we 1st change the law against hate speech it's not easy because a lot of people say ok then you look what can be said and what's not no we don't accept people bringing hate into our society so we did a lot and that case we are trying to get more and more policemen in our forty's 2000 we want to employ in the next time so so be doing a lot but sometimes it's very hard to just figure out these kind of lonely will 1st and we have to ask why are these persons a lot of times by a social media being motivated to do such horrible crimes i spoke earlier this evening with a documentary film producer and his specialty is the far right scene here in

germany far right violence he told me that the forces of the far right based on what he has researched are out of control in germany what do you say to them i wouldn't say they're out of control but the number is increasing that is really one issue that concerns us a lot so we're trying to to bring more power in our intelligence to our police to fight against this group of violent right extremists the former head of the b. and d. which is germany's main intelligence agency tons mustn't today tweeted something which he later deleted we've got that tweet we want to show you there we did a translation into english he tweeted socialist logic perpetrators are always right wing victims are right wing the victims are always left wing now. later as i said he deleted that but when you read that perpetrators are always right wing victims are left we that being written by

a man who used to be the top spy official of this country do you understand when people say that they feel like the security forces in this country are infested with far right sympathizers sometimes i can't understand hunk of mohsen in that case and it's good that he deleted it but he shouldn't better not written it so it's not a question on this case of right or left it's totally clear that this guy was racist motivated that he's right wing religious and we have to look at where he is radicalized i think in social media he posted videos on you tube he wrote a kind of. you could tell maybe money festo but very small confusing but nevertheless if he's a confused guy but he's a racist and he's the right wing guy we understand that in this this manifesto this pamphlet that the gunman had put online and he is a supporter he's a fan of the us president donald trump. what do you do as

a member of the german parliament when you're fighting these violent forces and these violent forces or are appealing pulling from the president of your biggest ally i mean how do you square that circle i have no idea what went wrong in this head but nevertheless we see that more and more people are following quinn's. theories they think the world is going totally wrong the governments are doing wrong things they don't believe in an institution's so in the end we have to do more about education we have to bring more clear opinions in the society and we have to for the intelligent on the police we have to observe this room's also in the internet it's not just a you tube it's not just facebook a lot of mall plats. forms of whether people got radicalized what about the political parties the far right if tea party for example that's the biggest

opposition in the federal parliament where you are they are known for being sympathizers of the far right i mean you have to do business there legitimately elected to parliament yes how do you do that they are and i would say one 3rd of them right wing extremists the old n p d. of the public on a in our country so they are still there now in the deed so we have to be clear we don't cooperate or we don't work with them together and we have to separate them because there are some who went to the a of d. because of the euro issues europe stability issues there and we have to ask them why and how can you be in such a party which accepts that one 3rd of the party is extremist but i think what you're actually really a danger there and you would nor them though that that's actually going to fuel the fire then we shouldn't ignore them we should tell the people business not an alternative to the answers are not real answers they tried to divide the society they tried to bring down the government to destabilize a country and then they want to seek that chance to bring of then you government

and we have to make right clear they don't do a good job because they really in the end don't have an answer so there is a national election next year your party is looking for a new chancellor candidate to take over from under the miracle do you see any possible candidates out there right now who would be qualified to take on this far right movement in germany i thought right now we have 4 possible candidates so i think there's a good position for a party other parties would wish they would have just one candidate so we'll have a hopefully a good process until summer games isn't for you to do the best candidate i think the 1st one who officially announced himself as no but about going was a very very good speech and i think the others will come. as well known and a lot of members of the party think he has should have a chance but spawn is also a very good human history so we have a good person knows the situation or if you've got all the names down there's your path your words appreciate you coming on the show tonight. i like

to talk about who are running against a billionaire who calls women fat broads and whore stays to lesbians and no i'm not talking about donald trump i'm talking about mayor bloomberg i think we need something different than donald trump i don't think you look at donald trump and say we need someone richer in the white house but around the country you have the best known socialist in the country happens to be a millionaire with 3 houses what i'm missing here. fireworks last night's the democratic presidential debate on n.b.c. all because of the new candidate on the block if you will the former new york city mayor mike bloomberg the other candidates they did not hold back did they do this when the lars you're with me at the beach table he is a campaign little can't think of sold in veteran of the 208-0012 obama campaign i mean it's what we're looking at anyway is unusual to have this many candidates this late in the season and now we've got this billionaire who says he's

a democrat who wants to be president how do you read all of that former republican mayor of new york billionaire who just entered the race and i mean let's face it all those candidates on stage are ready for mike bloomberg they had their opposition research done and you just showed elizabeth warren she came out blazing and so he had to step into the arena unprepared i would argue they've been on the debate stage $410.00 times everyone knows the drill they have their talking points down they have to end it builds ready and he came in and caught some flak. you know the democratic party would you say that mike bloomberg is he an imposter is he a foe a fake democrat i mean i think democrats take issue to someone who just says look i'm going to skip the 4th 1st states i wouldn't hampshire and nevada and south carolina i'm just going to enter on super tuesday and i'm just going to spend you know close to 2000000000 is what they're saying on this is the money of his own

money not taken any donations and i think you could also make the case though that mike bloomberg actually took on some pretty progressive issues i mean he spent tremendous amounts of money of his own money to find fight climate change to fight for you know stricter gun regulation so i would actually argue that you know want to a certain extent he helped elect a slash of democratic progressive leaders in the 2000 a determined lection so you know it goes 2 ways. when i look at him the eyes i see someone who is coming in late to the party structure he wants to spoil it if you will and the democratic party itself should it allow someone to do that i mean just in terms of if you're looking at party politics in and putting people out there to become the candidate but i mean is what he's is it kosher what he's doing a little it's certainly an experiment because again it's not been done before look i think you've all heard those democratic candidates say on that stage saying you

know you can't just buy your way and well obviously you can't right now and people have been critical and saying is that going to work won't he's polling 2nd to bernie sanders in most of the super tuesday states so spending 40000000 of your own money actually does the branding effect that he was hoping for and actually gets him up on the polls now happened last night is that you know you can run a great advertising campaign and hit people with almost every other t.v. spot that's out there hit him on social media and actually create an image of yourself that he went on the debate stage yesterday and then people actually got to see the real one member and if there's a too large of a discrepancy there you know the house will start crumbling under that's what happened last night let me ask you this before we run out of time the u.s. president on top his approval ratings are at an all time high 49 percent and he is just coming off this frenzy of pardoning people white collar criminals the sort who all had some type of connection to him and yet his approval rating is not suffering

as a you know as a political campaign strategist how do you explain that well i think what happened is and this is what the polling indicates as well democrats have been talking about impeachment whereas voters care about the health care and so i think you know democrats need to figure out do we want to do another round of impeachment hearings regarding the pardoning and all the corruption that's taking place in the united states right now or do we just want to focus on the kitchen table issues look this . that's why mike bloomberg entered the race and he said the best one equipped to be donald trump and some of the polling actually indicates that now he has to prove that point and you know the happening on saturday south carolina is happening and then of course the big question is what happens on super tuesday i'm sure they'll be talking about that you believe the polls. out of the prediction business. i do know a big chunk of delegates will get a lot on super tuesday all right. it's good to get your unique view there but we

appreciate it thank you. as it's known is now underway this is the festival's 70th year and the opening film is my salinger year story. of alien thing but i'm sure you agree this flick is anything but science fiction. i mean i can give you plenty of idiotic examples but i was. a fan takes up his typewriter and writes to his idol the novelist j.d. salinger who was a one hit wonder with his book the catcher in the rocket. a new face at the publishing agency joanna takes care of salinger's fan mail. fan this is margaret played by sigourney weaver she salinger's agent come bodyguard her job to protect her star from everything and everyone 40 years after the famous

book 1st hit the bestseller lists she's a direct kind of person. rewind and i think there's can truth that whole time where writing was so respected in may such a profound difference to people where they were the writers king or queen i think she feels in a way like the high priestess to put her her arms around that world and keep it safe jericho's you should say yes terry but salinger is just a ghost haunting the film influencing 2 women the younger of which is still finding her way. the film was not about salinger but about the effect of a writer. on the young woman and her journey to become a writer is that on my salinger year is perhaps a low key start to the better than i but it's a soulful declaration of love for the literature business in 1990 s.

new york in the office on a trial basis all right over at the recover now are my colleagues and. buffs the humphrey and david good evening to you 2 let's talk about this opening film what do you think of it. well helen and i came out of the movie and we looked at each other and we did we just see the devil wears prada but like in a really bookish version and i don't think that that's what this was i think that this for a very bookish movie will have a pretty widespread appeal and it's a movie that i would love to go see with my mom for instance i don't think it will have as much appeal is the devil wears prada but i really appreciate that it was very sincere you know i agree absolutely one thing i will say there is if you all go into this movie as a big j.d. salinger fan i mean i am for one that makes you think you are as well you know going to get so much of that from that this is more of a story a female amounts of patients for example you know young woman comes to the big city

with big dreams she finds those dreams like he did and she meets a guy that used the wrong guy gets rid of him and eventually he wasn't out he wasn't great you was kind of eventually as she finds have always i think it was really satisfying in that way i mean i give it 3 and a half stars 3 stars i get 3 stars 3 and a half and david would take his mom helen would you take your. i take my dad it's got that kind of broad appeal i like that i like that you both the stars the bell and all of we know we have the reputation of being somewhat quirky what is this year's focus. absolutely but i mean i think about it not is always an issue a mentally quicky it is political this year as well the director of the festival said that it's all about inner turmoil and out of conflict paying lip service to the fact that i mean he said we're living in type even times and we really actually see that in the lineup of the festival aside from my salinger year for instance

this film there is no evil by muhammad russell of the director muhammad russell of won't be able to attend his own world premiere because he's not allowed to leave iran and another movie that i'm really looking forward to seeing dow as a russian film that won't be allowed to be shown in russia fascinating movie about the soviet union a cast of 400 people were kept enclosed in a set for 3 years to make this movie sort of reenacting like like a truman show reenacting of the soviet union if you want i mean i mean they are inherently political i think what's really interesting as well i mean as we know the power of cinema to show the political on a personal level as well and one without a mind i think will be the i'm really looking forward to seeing as an american film never ready sometimes always which is about 217 year old girls cozzens living in rural pennsylvania one of them fools unexpectedly pregnant and then goes to seek an abortion having to take a greyhound to new york the problems that she encounters is of course you know just

so potent and timely when we're seeing for example challenges to review weight and health care legislation in the united states right now you know what i will say that you guys had the best assignment of the month maybe of the year you get to watch movies and then talk about them here on the day which we look forward to we will look forward to now for the next week 3 david leavitt's our 2 lucky lucky colleagues thank you guys. for the day is almost gone the conversation continues online you'll find us on twitter either at the news or you can follow me at brant goth t.v. don't forget to use the hash tag the day every member whatever happens between. now and then tomorrow is another day we'll see you get a book. i'm
