      In case anybody outside believes that Germany has a very pro-refugee sentiment: There's a hate mob hunting foreign-looking people in Chemnitzhttps://www.dw.com/en/fresh-dueling-protests-break-out-in-chemnitz/a-45242473 …

      I'm pretty sure that a demonstration of a thousand right-wing people doesn't define a nation of eighty million, any more than the perpetrators of the crime which triggered it offer any representation of immigrants. Don't project the few onto the majority!

      It may not be representative of 80 million, but it is representative of Germany as a whole. Saxony in particular has a long history of downplaying right-wing extremism with the home secretary and police doing nothing.

      We're looking at a pogrom-like situation in Chemnitz. This is a bad time for sealioning.

      I'm saying, don't get depressed that 1% of 1% of the population are showing themselves to be awful human beings. An overreaction is also bad: it makes those few look powerful in having provoked it, and they don't deserve that. Any response has to be proportionate.

      Though that's not to say that more of a response than the authorities have enacted so far would be beneficial. I think you know much better than I do about what they are and are not doing...

          The authorities have literally enacted no response whatsoever.
