More specifically, the sandwich that he stopped to grab, in public, after having just survived MULTIPLE failed assasination attempts in a parade!

Honestly, let's take away the politics. Let's take away the original reasons for the assasination attempts. Let's take away the nationality, and culture.

The fact that you sat in an open top car during a parade, witnessed MULTIPLE assasination attempts fail as you drove through the public, SURVIVED UNHARMED, and your first thought was "I'm gonna get a sandwich"? Yeah, Franz deserved what he got.

It was the assassin that suposedly was getting the sandwich, but it's a made up story.

I'd be hungry after all of that, too.

Would you perhaps say that he was... hungarian after that parade?
