A large number of assaults and robberies targeting women at Cologne's New Year's Eve celebrations two years ago horrified Germany. Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to attend the New Year's Eve party in Berlin on Sunday and security will be strict.So, to summarise... lacking the capability and political will to stop the expected tidal wave of depravity and crime, German authorities will stick women & children in a "protective laager," a sort of New Years Eve refugee camp.
Women who have been assaulted or feel harassed will be able to get support at a special "safety zone", staffed by the German Red Cross.
UPDATE: Germany... tail between it's legs
BERLIN (AP) – A German police union boss has criticized organizers of Berlin’s annual open-air New Year’s Eve party for designating a special “safety area” for women, saying it suggests they aren’t safe from assault elsewhere.Well?
DON'T CALL THEM 'SECURITY BOLLARDS:
"Toronto Council did, however, approve new 'vehicle mitigation measures' for Nathan Phillips Square during its meeting on Friday."Because you never know when a Peterbilt 567 might lose it's shit and attack a public gathering.
LAST WORD: Bataclan massacre turned love story?
Seriously?
The film is understood to centre on a fictional romance between a single mother and an Afghan refugee who meet on the night of 13 November as they rescue survivors of the attacks.So, suddenly, this unthinkable Islamic terrorist atrocity is a love story with a Muslim hero?
Hey Social Justice Warriors... here's your movie...
"An investigating officer, tears streaming down his face, rushed out of the Bataclan and vomited in front of him just after seeing the disfigured bodies."
"According to testimony, Wahhabist killers reportedly gouged out eyes, castrated victims, and shoved their testicles in their mouths. They may also have disemboweled some poor souls. Women were reportedly stabbed in the genitals."
