Funny conversation between Mr Schmidt from the CSU and spiegel.de:

SPIEGEL ONLINE: You must be very afraid. You placard a video image of the attack in the subway station - the SPD will throw a scare campaign before.

Schmid: The fear is it already there. I am surprised that this will have noticed that not all politicians. Many people tell me that, write to me recently that tear gas sprays for self-defense in a Munich store are sold out, another five-time sales reports. This shows that politics has to take up this fear and offer solutions to cool it down.

SPIEGEL ONLINE: The pepper spray sales rise but only transported for CDU's election campaign cook with his election campaign that fear.

Schmid: We had four attacks within a short time in the Munich subway. Since you can not accuse us of creating a climate fear. We complain, however, that the people look away too often. Therefore, I look back on youth violence.

SPIEGEL ONLINE: Are you afraid in the subway?

Schmid: No. But it's not for me, but what most people think.
...
SPIEGEL ONLINE: Election campaign posters with pictures of real crimes is known far more by far-right parties. Green Party leader Claudia Roth speaks of "the most indecent and most revolting campaign posters.

Schmid: These images are the reality, and to show they can never be rude and obnoxious. Policy has to deal with reality. Lewd and disgusting the crime is in the picture. As German criminals have attacked foreigners, there were fairy lights. I thought that was very good. Now I want the same solidarity with the victims of the subway attacks. I would be good also in this case, a candlelight vigil.

SPIEGEL ONLINE: Have the victim, attacked the pensioner, before printing the poster asked for permission?

Schmid: No, because we have replaced his silhouette with a white placeholder.

SPIEGEL ONLINE: But you go with the fate of the pensioner to win votes.

Schmid: Nonsense. We operate not win votes, we still use the fate of one individual. We show images that are symptomatic of a more stringent Brutality of attacks.
