‘Balcony Man’ Who Shouted Profanities at Munich Mass Shooter Reportedly Being Investigated for Insulting the Killer

Thomas Salbey has been hailed as the “balcony man” following a video showing him engaged in a shouting match with Ali Sonboly just after the 18 year old shot up a Munich shopping center last month in a deadly rampage.

Salbey heard the first volley of bullets, went to his balcony and spotted the mass shooter running from the scene and reloading his gun. That’s when Salbey, 57, chucked his beer bottle at the killer.

With that Sonboly headed to the roof of a parking garage, and Salbey got into it with him, hollering at the killer and reportedly calling him a “wanker,” a “f***ing asshole,” a “f***ing foreigner” and declaring “your head should be cut off.”

Sonboly argued back, reportedly saying that “because of you I was bullied for 7 years” — and fired several shots at Salbey’s direction. Sonboly later died of a self-inflicted shotgun wound.

Ask the victim for his testimony. After all, he is the only one who can truly say there was any "insulting" going on.
Orwell would be so proud.
A guy murders people in cold blood and we go after the guy who might have said something mean to him!
Seriously?

Keep cheering.
