Authorities in the town of Schorndorf in Baden-Württemberg have expressed shock after police and bystanders were attacked by members of a group of around 1,000 youths.
Police report that a group of around 1,000 teenagers and young men gathered on Saturday evening in the grounds of Schorndorf Castle, as the small town celebrated the second day of its week-long town fair. According to police, a large portion of the group had immigrant backgrounds.
From within the group, beer bottles were thrown at the walls of the castle, at other festival-goers, and eventually at police officers.
“The violence faced by police was shocking,” a police spokesperson said, adding that while it was normal for large numbers of youth to gather at the festival, the aggression was new.
When officers tried to arrest one suspect on suspicion of causing serious bodily harm, the situation escalated, with many people getting involved to try to hinder the arrest.
Police then called for backup. More officers arrived at the scene in riot gear, “to shield the arrest and to prevent an attack.” As officers withdrew from the scene, they were again attacked with bottles.
Eventually police called in support from nearby towns to counteract what they described as "massive potential for violence."
Throughout the night, groups of between 30 to 50 young men were seen acting aggressively in the medieval town centre. Eyewitnesses reported seeing people armed with knives, while one man was said to have fired a shot from a blank-firing gun.
Police reported damage to three of their vehicles, one with graffiti and another that was damaged after being hit by bottles.
Three incidents of sexual assaults against women were also reported on Friday evening, while one was reported on Saturday.
An Iraqi man was being investigated in connection with one of the assaults on Friday. After a 17-year-old reported being held against her will and then groped on her backside on Saturday, three Afghani men were also being investigated for the crime.
Police chief Roland Eisele urged other women to come forward if they were abused on Friday or Saturday night during the chaotic scenes.
Eisele said "the aggression and escalation of violence" were unprecedented and unexpected in the town of about 40,000 people, located near Stuttgart.
In a press conference on Monday, Eisele evoked the chaos of Cologne's infamous 2015 New Year's Eve celebrations when men of North African and Middle Eastern appearance groped and assaulted hundreds of women, sparking widespread public outrage.
He stressed that the rowdy scenes in Schorndorf were less intense than those in Cologne or the riots in the northern port-city of Hamburg before and during the July 7th-8th Group of 20 summit, when far-left and anarchist militants burnt street barricades and threw rocks from rooftops.

Call to muster the unorganized armed militia. Oh...wait. This is Germany. Never mind.
The French lost them in WW1
Same with the Brits.
In a discussion with someone on another website we were talking about why there were so many English queers. Someone who was a military history expert said:
"Verdun".
Thank you.

Apparently, not ALL Germans have been taught yet to fully appreciate their newfound diversity. Have no fear, if anyone can get a point across, it is the Germans. They will learn to love their beautiful new mosaic.

Thankss
Funny, they use the same euphemisms for their scum that we do.
Where are the Lugers, P 38’s, KAR 98’s, MP 40’s?
I wonder if the last remnant of normal people in Germany will try to flee to America before their country collapses.
South side of Chicago.
Unexpected
*drink*
Its like Hawaii importing a whole bunch of brown tree snakes from Guam,
“And yet, Merkel got reelected.”
And with that goes my sympathy for them. I do hate to see Europe destroyed by savages though.
The Black Watch, SAS, Ghurkas, and some other regiments are still badass, I also have no doubt Germany has some equally capable units. But no political will.
“The men that carry the genes that could have put an end to this were lost on the Eastern Front and the Somme.”
The Russians suffered more casualties, and the Russians have no problem kicking mooslim butts.

Shocked?! You let millions of military age moslems into your country. What could possibly go wrong?
I know people who have family in Germany and the Netherlands who are busy getting them over.
