Two large protests against migration have woken up the Germans: On 20 January, at least 2,500 participants were protesting in Cottbus and last Sunday, on 28 January, there was another big protest in Kandel.
The protests started in Cottbus after Syrians attacked several Germans within a matter of days. For example a German man and a German boy were attacked with knives by Syrians. After other incidents, tensions in the town became so high that it stopped the acceptance of new refugees.
But also in Kandel people have had enough of migrant violence. In December, a 15-year-old German girl, called Mia, was brutally murdered by an Afghan refugee in a drug store. Mia was well-liked, she helped organise the local carnival every year.
After the murder of the girl, the anger of the people was triggered by a mayor who seemed to be more concerned about xenophobia than about the safety of the German citizens. Worried women who felt unheard started protesting and the protests started to spread with the largest happening last Sunday.
German sources told us more big protests will follow and it wouldn’t surprise us if they grow bigger. There couldn’t be a better trigger than Merkel’s Economic Forum speech in Davos where she said she is mostly concerned about right-wing populism
How many years late is this in coming?
2500, should be 250,000 by now.
GOOD!
It’s about time.
When the leftist damn breaks all of the pent-up rage of the German people will sweep the leftists from power and into the grave. German politics is a pressure cooker and the critical temperature has been reached. I would like to say that I will be sorry for the impending ferocious demise of the leftists but they have earned it.
“After the murder of the girl, the anger of the people was triggered by a mayor who seemed to be more concerned about xenophobia than about the safety of the German citizens.”
Same story with DemocRats in the US.
Merkel will defend the Muslims and cause more protests
Let me know when it's 2,500,000.
Wow, this is such a clickbait headline.
Merkel hasn’t lost control, this is about former East germany, and cities that have been both depressed and have had very little experience with foreignors. Cottbus, is in Brandenburg... now, Merkel should never have sent refugees to these places as the treatment of refugee resettlement often looks as if they;re getting a better shake than the germans.
Look, I have relatives across Germany, and in general I find, I’m more concerned about the influx of migrants than they are.
If it’s mentioned at SOTU, will it count?
“If it’s mentioned at SOTU, will it count?”
Hmm, guess the leftist freakbots would say Trump/we staged it.
Merkel pays no attention to protests that do not fit her own views.
Now why would you think that Germans would do that?
OTOH, Big Media loves to seriously UNDERreport crowd attendance when it doesn’t fit our enemies’ narrative....
So let me get this straight. These people had to leave their ****hole country and the German people were generous enough to let them in. Then, they terrorize and kill the native Germans? Huh? What kind of savages are these people? And we want them to come to our country? Libtards are stupid people.
I hope the awakening is happening. I really want to show my family Germany some day and not have to avoid cities. I never hear Weisbaden in these stories, that’s where my mom grew up and I visited as a child. I’m hopeful.
Only fools learn from experience, said Benjamin Franklin, citing as an example someone who must touch a hot stove to learn not to touch hot stoves.
German thunderheads blow Europe up for the third time in 100 years. National character doesn’t change it gets slightly modified. This is all so unnecessary.
