With migrants flooding in by the thousands, (up to one million!) Germans are preparing to defend themselves any way they can, but without a Second Amendment, they're finding it difficult.
All across the country – and in a country with some of the strictest gun control on the continent – Germans are buying up non-lethal self-defense weapons, like pepper spray, gas pistols, flare guns and animal repellants, the Gatestone Institute is reporting.
German officials insist the recent interest in self-defense has nothing to do with the onslaught of refugees from the Middle East or the spike in violent crime recently.
But the headlines from their own newspapers tell a different story:
In recent weeks, German newspapers have published dozens of stories with headlines such as: "Germany is Afraid — And Grabs for the Weapon," "Germans are Arming Themselves: The Demand for Weapons Explodes," "More and More People are Buying a Weapon," "Security: Hands Up!" "The Need for Security Increases," "Boom in Weapons Stores," and "Bavarians are Arming Themselves— Afraid of Refugees?"
Nationwide sales of pepper spray are up 600 percent in the last five months and a company that manufactures self-defense products like pepper spray is reporting sales are up five-fold.
Another manufacturer of self-defense products, the Frankfurt-based company DEF-TEC Defense Technology, has reported a 600% increase in sales this fall. According to CEO Kai Prase:
"Things took off beginning in September. Since then, our dealers have been totally overrun. We have never experienced anything like this in the 21 years of our corporate history. Fear: This is not rational. The important term is: 'refugee crisis.'"
The same story is being repeated across Germany. According to the public broadcaster, Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk, citizens in Saxony can regularly be seen queuing up in large numbers waiting for gun shops to open.
A store owner in the Saxon town of Pirna said he is now selling up to 200 cans of pepper spray each day, compared to five cans a week before the migrant crisis began. He said he is seeing many new customers who are not the typical clientele, including women of all ages and men who are buying weapons for their wives.
Günter Fritz, the owner of a gun shop in Ebersbach, another town in Saxony, told RTL News, "Since September, all over Germany, also at my shop, sales of self-defense products have exploded." He added that his clients come from all walks of life, ranging "from the professor to the retired lady. All are afraid."
They need to do something about getting Merkel and her cronies out of power — stat.
Pepper spray isn’t going to get it done. Her und Frau Kraut need to start ordering “camping” supplies http://www.campingsurvival.com/machetes.html
not only are millions of foreigners being brought in
but
they’re almost all of the group that takes over other people’s countries this way
(as they’ve already done to 57 nations)
and they’re taught from birth to hate or subjugate “infidels” like Christians and Jews.....
(and its Germany....)
results are predictable — get ready folks, lots of fireworks ahead...
Miss me yet?
Of course not. **rolls eyes**
While “we” (Time) vote her Person of The Year!
Just what is with the western world? People, the citizens, the one group the Government is paid to protect (through taxes) are not being protected by their government.
This is so insane.
While “we” (Time) vote her Person of The Year!
The first obligation of a government is to protect its people from invasion and harm.
And Merkel’s EU is abetting it, aiding the invaders and telling local people to shut up and adapt to THEIR ways, such as telling girls to dress modestly around Muslim shelters or NGOs telling rape victims not to report because it proves negative stereotypes about the rapists’ people.
That German official opinion struck me too.
It’s absolutely pathetic.

non-lethal self-defense weapons,?
Sling blade availability check on aisle 5. Modulate that sling to full on (own).
“Refugees” my foot! Until the Germans have the courage to speak plainly about their Mohammedan invaders, they will remain easy prey and will be trampled on their own turf.
They didn’t learn from history. Now they’re going to get to repeat it.
I’m fully expecting the Germans to totally Teutonic on these barbarians before it’s done with and UN helmets being flown in to quell the violence.
German Sport Guns make some really nice .22lr replicas, quite reliable too. I wonder if they can be purchased in Germany???
From Panzers and blitzkrieg to pepper spray.
That’ll work.
It’s really awfully LATE for the Europeans to wake up, but better late than never, I suppose.
