Germany shocked by Cologne New Year gang assaults on women
59 minutes agoCologne officials say the systematic assaults on women are a new type of crime
The mayor of Cologne has summoned police for crisis talks after about 80 women reported sexual assaults and muggings by men on New Year’s Eve.
The scale of the attacks on women at the city’s central train station has shocked Germany. About 1,000 drunk and aggressive young men were involved.
City police chief Wolfgang Albers called it “a completely new dimension of crime”. The men were of Arab or North African appearance, he said.
… At least one woman was raped, and many were groped. Most of the crimes reported to police were robberies. A volunteer policewoman was among those sexually molested.
What is particularly disturbing is that the attacks appear to have been organised. Around 1,000 young men arrived in large groups, seemingly with the specific intention of carrying out attacks on women.
A policeman who was outside Cologne station during the New Year’s Eve trouble told the city’s Express news website that he had detained eight suspects. “They were all asylum seekers, carrying copies of their residence certificates,” he said.
However, there was no official confirmation that asylum seekers had been involved in the violence. Commentators in Germany were quick to urge people not to jump to conclusions.
Feminist Susan Brownmiller’s 1975 suggestion that sexual assault can be viewed as a political crime makes a lot of sense.
Comments to Steve Sailer:
* These single lonely Arab Muslim men in Germany just want some sexy time (in Borat accent). Since when did sexy time become rape?
* I’m sorry to say that Merkel may go down in history as Germany’s greatest traitor. Still I ask: what the hell possessed her?
* Merkel’s Germany is getting a lot more germy given the reported rate of diseases like TB for the Arab migrants and HIV from the Africans. And you know where the left hands of the Arab migrants have been.
* At a much smaller scale the same seems to have happened in the cities Hamburg and Stuttgart as well.
In Cologne the whole event took place in front of the main train station, at the foot of the Cologne cathedral. The cathedral has a side entry which goes directly to this square. At the top of this entry there is currently a huge antiracist / pro-refugee statement hanging at the wall.
It is funny how those people get called “asylum seekers” now. Why not simply call them refugees?
Actually those people did much likely not come this to Germany, but rather 3,4 years ago. After the Arab Spring started already a lot of North Africans came Europe and claimed being refugees.
Big western german cities, especially Cologne, have suffered from violence and crime of exactly this group for years.
Actually the Arab Spring seems to have two main variants:
1) the Egypt variant which means young mean sexually molesting women like on the Tahrir square in Cairo
2) the Syria variant which means Sunni muslims trying to expel or murder every Non-Muslim.
* Hitler issued orders from the bunker that German society be destroyed. Maybe Merkel is just following through.
