We visited the CSD #Pride Parade in #Berlin on Saturday when the terror attack happened.
Most people (myself included) did not even notice until they read the #news later.
In the area where the attack happened, the only security measure I saw was one police car, that drove by once while we were there.
There was even someone, feeling comfortable enough, to openly hand out business cards with a QR code, offering drugs.

2/2 We left there before it happened and only later saw helicopters fly past, however what I did notice was the lax security on the main roads, even remember remarking on it on arrival. I just want to clarify: the park where it happened was PART of the parade, not "the edge" as news etc. claim, people marched there as well, used the portable toilets, rested in the shade... Complete failure by state & police, as this is THE regular venue for the biggest gatherings of #Germany not just #CSD.
