Afghan national walks in the centre and starts stabbing people. Both mortally wounded victims were Portuguese women who worked there. The only good thing to come out of this was the police 1 minute (!) reaction time

This is unreal... I'm Portuguese and I never ever thought there would be a terrorist attack on my country. It's a very dark day for us...

Other than the ones from FP25 back in the day, right?

Yeah yeah but that was way before I was born so I don't really remember or know much about that, only the few bits my parents told me

How come this has not higher in upvotes? This is a terrorist attack on EU soil.

And on a rather peaceful country such as mine at that!

I think we´d probably be the last or one of the last countries anyone thought something like this would happen

Do we have a motive?
