[b]Cologne sex attacks: Merkel disgust at New Year gang assaults[/b] Via [url=http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-35237173]BBC[/url] _________________________ [quote][img]http://i.imgur.com/Foxa22Q.jpg[/img] [i]Police at the station only made a handful of arrests on New Year's Eve [/i] - - - Women have made at least 90 criminal complaints to police about the harassment by gangs at Cologne's main railway station on Thursday night. Germans have been shocked by the scale of the attacks, involving many groups of drunk and aggressive young men. Witnesses and police said the men were of Arab or North African appearance. Mrs Merkel called Cologne Mayor Henriette Reker on Tuesday and expressed her "outrage over these disgusting attacks and sexual assaults". The chancellor said everything must be done "to find the perpetrators as quickly and comprehensively as possible and punish them, regardless of their origin or background". Up to 300 women demonstrated against the violence near the scene of the attacks on Tuesday evening. One placard read: "Mrs Merkel! Where are you? What do you say? This alarms us!" There is an intense debate in Germany about refugees and migrants, who arrived in record numbers last year. But Mayor Reker urged people not to jump to conclusions about the Cologne assailants. "It's completely improper... to link a group that appeared to come from North Africa with the refugees," she said, after crisis talks with the police. Cologne police chief Wolfgang Albers called it "a completely new dimension of crime" and rejected criticism of his force's handling on the night.[/quote] Nice to see an appropriate response from Merkel, I'd say.

[quote]Mayor Reker promised preventive measures ahead of the carnival. The authorities would warn young women about possible risks and "give a better explanation to people from other cultures about the meaning of carnival", she said. "We need to prevent confusion here, about what constitutes happy behaviour and what is utterly separate from openness, especially in sexual behaviour," she said.[/quote] Why are brown people not capable of taking responsibility for their own actions? "Oh, they're just ignorant of our culture! It's our fault for not teaching them better!". [quote]The crisis management team said prevention measures should include a code of conduct for young women and girls, and Mayor Reker said the existing code of conduct will be updated online. The suggested code of conduct includes maintaining an arm’s length distance from strangers, to stick within your own group, to ask bystanders for help or to intervene as a witness, or to inform the police if you are the victim of such an assault. In anticipation of large carnivals in the city centre in February, Mayor Reker promised an increased police presence. She warned young women about potential dangers of drunken events. People expressed frustration at the focus on the victims rather than the perpetrators.[/quote] [url]http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/mayor-of-cologne-says-women-should-have-code-of-conduct-to-prevent-future-assault-a6798186.html[/url] Seriously?

wtf germany just wtf imagine defending your precious immigrants and their hellhole culture so hard that you turn a blind eye to the organized rape squads and [i]blame the women for letting themselves be attacked[/i] [i]are you fucking kidding me[/i]

No one is turning a blind eye, they're searching for them. Maybe try reading the article next time. No one is defending this besides the mayor of cologne and he's just a huge fuckwit.

[QUOTE]"It's completely improper... to link a group that appeared to come from North Africa with the refugees," she said, after crisis talks with the police.[/QUOTE] The EU has been taking refugees and migrants from Africa for a while now, they just cross with boats, march alongside the refugees or charge the fence at Melilla.

So, Germany is the UN of refugees? Stern letters and lots of raised pointed fingers saying "bad refugee, bad!"

[QUOTE=hexpunK;49465076]this is satire right? i thought we purged the last of the fucking idiots who genuinely thinks facism is the answer to a refugee crisis.[/QUOTE] Ironically juicy, or juicily ironic?

At this moment, its just beyond retarded.

[QUOTE=Laferio;49465089]Ironically juicy, or juicily ironic?[/QUOTE] The fruity juice of irony, it sounds like a good idea when you write it but it quickly becomes a "oh fuck it i'm not changing it" post. I'm not changing it.

[QUOTE=hexpunK;49465076]this is satire right? i thought we purged the last of the fucking idiots who genuinely thinks facism is the answer to a refugee crisis.[/QUOTE] Do you honestly think he's advocating for fascism, or do you think he could just be hyperbolic for the sake of a joke? I know I was gonna make one too, something about Hitler rolling in his grave

[QUOTE=Conscript;49465075]I wonder what the SA would have done.[/QUOTE] Righteous justice, duh. [/sarcasm] [QUOTE=hexpunK;49465076]this is satire right?[/QUOTE] Mostly.

[QUOTE]i thought we purged the last of the fucking idiots who genuinely thinks facism is the answer to a refugee crisis.[/QUOTE] Purging sounds kinda fascist, don't cha think?

[QUOTE=hexpunK;49465076]this is satire right? i thought we purged the last of the fucking idiots who genuinely thinks facism is the answer to a refugee crisis.[/QUOTE] Doesn't really matter anyway, he's advocating for someone who would simply put a stop to this. Anyhow... it's easy for you to say - the UK remains largely unaffected by this whole refugee clusterfuck, unlike Germany. And correct me where I'm wrong here... but wasn't your government the one chastising the Italian government over that one time when they wanted to deport the illegal refugees that arrived to their shores, but when pushed for assistance, they promptly said "oh no no no, we don't want no refugees, it's your coastline lads, it's none of our business"?

Not sure what this has to do with refugees. Europe has been taking in immigrants from West Asia and Africa for over a decade now and even if the Syrian War ended right now, this would not change. It's a red herring.

[QUOTE=Pretiacruento;49465354]It's in the article. ^ There.[/QUOTE] If those 8 people were the only ones involved then I guess it's case closed.

It seems to be when you have such a massive influx of people, you don't have the measures in place to integrate them into European society, obviously some do not understand how things work here.
