He had finished fixing the car and wanted to go back home, but he saw a more terrible sight, his courage was motivated, he could not tolerate anyone to be the next victim.

Seeing the peace on the surface of the government actually hides the people’s dissatisfaction and blood and tears. It is a personally arrogant point of view. It also allows us to expand our horizons by focusing on drivers and German journalists. We can see the value of media freedom and the unfairness of news.
