Very good.

Attacks like this are disturbing to me. It’s troubling to see this sort of thing happening without tar and feathers too. It used to be such a fine tradition and should be brought back. Still, it’s a good start.

I can tell you that opposition to the mass influx of refugees is growing in my neighborhood. From an original reaction that it was a humanitarian necessity to a majority (more among men than women) who believe that the policy is misguided.

You must understand that the left owns the vocabulary here, just as they seem to own the vocabulary in America although to a lesser degree, so the change in attitude should be seen as a triumph of observation and common sense over ideology but that takes time.

Finally there is a common understanding that they are not getting the truth from their own media and I have heard many of them say that when they want to know the reality of the immigration situation they have to go to foreign newspapers. They assume their own government and their own press is lying to them at least by omission. I think this is a very significant development and one which I had not anticipated.

“...Police believe the attack is linked to the mayor’s support for plan to accommodate asylum-seekers in the village. ...”

Well at least their police are smarter than Comey .... he would have attributed it to Russian hackers!

So why again is not appreciating the criminal jihadist invaders right wing again? Each and every single one of these stories mentions the attacks are far right as if inserting that language is mandatory, but these people are never interviewed about their political leanings. I would guess that most of them would be considered left wing by our standards, and I bet all of them would vote for hillary if they could

Leftists of pretty much any country appear to have complete disregard for those first affected by their liberal policies. Here in America, that would be Obama/Hillary/Harry Reid/Nancy Pelosi....etc.
