So, what they are saying is that this guy was a known person of interest, but they didn't think to pull him in before now or to monitor his movements or contacts. Sounds familiar!
In other words, they left him alone to carry out this act, for political reasons. The families of the victims should be sueing the pants off the government over this.
While the politicians sit behind multiple layers of armed security and fortress living quarters, the rest of us are merely soft targets, to be used as expendable statistics to push agendas. Some things never change!

The meaningful shortcoming is yours. I do love hearing you ask it over and over. What was the question again?
"Have you now or have you ever had an opinion you confused with the facts?"
Your answer, don't confuse me with the facts.

2 different questions with 2 different implications. But if you say so.
ANYWAYS This event and background feels like deja vu. WHY is it that every recent perpetrator in recent attacks have been under government surveillance and had even BEEN DETAINED BEFORE. It just seems like a slap in the face that their solution to failing to recognize and stop the attack with all the surveillance they have IS MORE SERVEILLANCE.
this reply leads me to question your sanity and reasoning.
You will also have noticed that the answer to that question is no.

Actually it's a slight yes. The OP did his best to convey that train of thoughts, which combines 3 or 4 recent threads (the issues in Germany over the last months) easily rehashed with a quick glance on his threads.
The summary of 'incompetent miracles' is quite staggering.

Bias? It's actual and boring work to create a comprehensive overview others get paid good bucks for. Just saying. Also, in light of 9/11 IDENTIFICATION DOCUMENTS could be considered evidence for a false flag alone.
And there's more - that's what we call Bull#-Bingo. Maybe you didn't see that or you don't understand the scope of things, but the BfV is already in the midst of the NSU (state terror) scandal. This surely doesn't bode well.
One reason that a lot of terrorism suspects are "known to authorities" beforehand is

As I understand modern Trucks come with built in safety systems, the truck would brake automatically when he detects a car/person/obstacle in front.
IT seems even mandatory for trucks built after 1.1.2015 but since the tech is not trusted (yet) they have a manual override, if the trucks breaks but the driver pushes full throttle it will drive on.
This is the 'internal system'. I heard it from luxury sports car that the engine can be shut down externally in case of theft.
Never heard it used in Trucks, then again I am no expert. (Sort of became half an expert over night ;-)
