The attacker was an Algerian immigrant with an Irish passport.

The guy that stopped the attack was a Brazilian immigrant, a good man.

The absolute chancers that started the riots were far-right mentally challenged Knackers that showed up in black masks.

Sounds like a superhero origin story. Are you sure she's dead and not living her best life boning other superheroes?

This isn't a technology post, and the article seems to be doing it's darnedest to inspire irrational outrage. So why is it not getting downvoted and reported?

btw, here's how Pomegranate is spelled in Portuguese: https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rom%C3%A3

I'm pretty sure it's "meh."

The chase is better than the catch.

Afaik one month vacations are something out of the norm in Europe, but sure there's some countries that allow that, just don't come in with your good old fashioned American uninformed claims and expect it to be the norm. One week to two week vacations are more common afaik.

Have you or anyone here looked up the Portuguese word for Pomegranate? Because it's veeeery different.

The waiter might just been ignorant and uneducated. Plenty of those in Lisbon and everywhere else in the world.

It is bad, but I'm not going to make rash assumptions because I don't have the full context. If the waiter is incompetent, that's one thing; plenty of incompetent, jumping to conclusion people around. The waiter could be that.

You think there's a high number of Spanish tourists going over the border, to Lisbon, only to ask for a pomegranate juice? And you think they are just going to assume that their language, culture and coloquialisms are the same? That's a lot of assumptions being made.

Was the waiter Portuguese, or just an immigrant that had a scary experience with a foreign Tourist?

And again, did anyone here even looked up the word in O.G. Portuguese? Because the author of the article surely didn't (otherwise I'd find it in the article), and all the people in the comments seem to be making a lot of assumptions about cultures in Europe.
