The boss of the Freedom Party in Styria is not happy about the Austrian police. He thinks the inhibition threshold to use firearms should be lower.

The reason of Kurzmann’s demand relates on an incident in the Grazer Stadtpark. One Asylum seeker from Algeria attacked a policeman and knocked him down. The policeman don’t wanted to use his gun. “I think the policeman had to use his firearm”, says the Styrian politican and adds “if criminals want to hurt our policemen, the police should be able to defend itself”.
