Almost like the story of the Islamobeyo*** at the Minneapolis Sporting Goods place and the guy with the cross. Did this really happen?. The claim is that the Minneapolis incident was false.
I could believe it really happened.
What the clerk did (at the front desk) was simply observing he had the Star of David on, and responded to the guest that in public around Leipzig....it’s not wise to walk with this on.
For the benefit of folks...Leipzig (city of 600k) is a region with a fair number of left-wing hyped-up people, and a fair number of right-wing hyped-up people. There’s various things that you could wear on a Friday night out in the city...which would trigger people to either insult or assault you. The clerk merely offered advice (my humble opinion).
It’d be the same way if you came to Frankfurt as a guest, and asking about walking around the train station district, and I’d tell you that it’s not a place to hang out....especially in evening hours. I’d also tell you not to loiter even in morning/afternoon hours...just too many junkies looking for a way to rob you.
