Dallas Police shield bystanders after shots fired at a Black Lives Matter rally in downtown Dallas on Thursday, July 7, 2016. Dallas protesters were rallying in the aftermath of the killing of Alton Sterling by police officers in Baton Rouge, La. and Philando Castile, who was killed by police less than 48 hours later in Minnesota, when gunfire broke out.

Of course, first our thoughts by the brothers, sisters and the affected humans !

The  sister  wrote....
I have just received from brothers from Munich:
Because of the assassination in Munich, so many register with us. I wanted to give you some feedback. Today we had our regional convention in our convention hall, which is 700 meters from the  site  of  crime.  We went at 5:46pm with the subway of Congress home. 14 minutes later the attack a subway station was right on!  WE got  well  home !  However, even  200 brothers  still  in the hall, but these may not leave. Many brothers parked  exactly in this shopping center, where the stop was. We hope and pray that none of our brothers is concerned. We are all in a  state of shock.   ----   Pray for our brothers !!!
Approximately 150 brothers still sit firmly in the congress hall. In Feldmoching shots from automatic weapons have been reported.  Is a neighbor  place, Calvin, 4 km away from us  here. The brothers in the convention hall  making  ready  for  night  to stay there  now. From injured Bro. nothing is known, if so, we knew that already. I just  talked with a brother who was at the conference. Helicopter circling above us and it is lively in our area. Have got terror alert. We  made  an around  call  to  all  our congration  brothers  and  all  are  safe  at  home.
MAY  JEHOVAH  BLESS  THE  NEXT  2  CONVENTION  DAY'S❤

Brothers Russell, Rutherford and Fred Franz were big on this kind of numerology, too. But when you look closely, all of their examples, too, reveal a similar "fudging" of numbers to make these ideas work. The 59th Gilead Graduation speech is the one where Fred Franz used his time slot to "condemn" the idea of a decision-making "Governing Body" and spoke out even against "committees"  and indicated that we are opposing the arrangement of Jesus if we support a Jerusalem-council-like "governing body."
But what is often missed from this speech is the fact that Brother Franz also incorporated just a small bit of numerology to add to the feeling of significance for the year 1975. Here is the relevant portion of the transcript below. Notice how he first ties the 59th Gilead class to the 60th so that he can speak about how amazing it was that the 59th class was the first one that reached the 60th century since man was created, so that the 60th class would start in the first year of the 7th millennium, or the beginning of the 61st century since Adam. 
To Brother Franz, even though he was technically off by one from the common perspective, he was still able to speak of the numerical coincidence as "surprising, startling, happifying" and "grand."

This is the closest I have ever been to the White House. Good views of the grounds.

I doubt he was a drunkard in the video shown above. I think he was just fooling around on the farm.
