BERLIN (AP) — A leading candidate to be mayor of Cologne was stabbed and seriously wounded Saturday by a man who claimed anti-foreigner motives, an attack that Germany's interior minister said underlined growing concerns over hatred and violence in the refugee crisis.
Henriette Reker was stabbed in the neck at a campaign stand set up by Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats at a market. Her condition was stable, police chief Wolfgang Albers said.
Reker is an independent candidate in Sunday's election for the new mayor of Germany's fourth-biggest city, but is backed by Merkel's conservatives and two other parties. The 58-year-old currently heads Cologne's social affairs and integration department, and is responsible for refugee housing.

The answer to refugee housing -— give tents and sleeping bags and send them on their way.
If not explicitly mentioned, said candidate backs the jihadist invasion of Europe.
Yep.
gee and I was always told Euros were so sophisticated....
Well, well, then said candidate is a traitor to her nation. No tears for her from me.
Angela el-Merkel turning Germany into Germanistan.
If this happened 1,000 times...
” but is backed by Merkel’s conservatives “
There is nothing conservative about Merkel.
Yeah it’s the violence from right-wing xenophobe nuts again... good thing those Eurowhackos don’t have guns.
The Euro governments will have to do more to protect the cowering peaceful islamists.
so the Germans do know how to fight
I guess I’m torn here.
I think this will probably backfire and be come propaganda for the pro invasionaists.
OTH revolutions have been started for a lot less.
I am more than certain thousands, maybe millions of innocent germans will suffer greatly for what their leaders have done. Perhaps this will instill some fear and induce other stupid pols to think twice about their disasterously dangerous policies.
ban knives and the problem goes away... liberals actually believe this about guns so the same must be true for knives and pop-tarts right?
The same political party a Merkel.
Obviously this happened because of the terrorism of the Jewish settlements in occupied Palestine. /s
How many invaders is Mz Reker hosting in her house?
“When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.”
Kipling.
That the Saxon began to hate.”
They have nearly defined history since they were known as "The Germanic Tribes" that toppled the Roman Empire.
Then they formed the Holy Roman Empire and defined Western Civilization.
Yah, Kipling was on to something.
What are you suggesting?
How dare you! Have you no compassion? Because someone has a different political position than you have on immigration, then you are indifferent to the candidate being stabbed?
Where is your basic empathy and level of humanity?
