Looks like some serious attitude problems!
I'd say shelter + food + basics were provided, yet more is expected.

Dear Lord help us if this is what brazen depravity Europe has to look forward to, and even if it is only a small minority of the million migrants who entered, then people are not safe even in the most public of places...
The mentality the guy showed is so epically messed up as to defy all belief or hope of understanding.

| | Re: Arab gang assaults in Germany | Quote: | |  | | | | | | | | No reputable sources then.
It is not enough to quote headline statistics; you need to understand the way the numbers are collected.
For example, from the BBC here;
"In Sweden there has been this ambition explicitly to record every case of sexual violence separately, to make it visible in the statistics,"
"So, for instance, when a woman comes to the police and she says my husband or my fiance raped me almost every day during the last year, the police have to record each of these events, which might be more than 300 events.
In many other countries it would just be one record - one victim, one type of crime, one record."

We have already enough deviants, we don't need any more
And criminals or not, the attitude displayed by many of these migrants is clearly a serious problem.
Not even talking about the fact that many are not "refugees" as per the definition but falsely claiming to be victims in order to hide greed, selfish motives and unrealistic expectations of a paradise life.
All that the expense of the hard working citizen of these countries, clearly the one being spoliated by local governments stupidity.

Not difficult is it  | | | | | How do you work out the 12 men who gang raped the 29yr old European mother who is now in a wheel chair?
And the 7 men who gang raped that virgin girl and laughed while telling about it?
No, you are right, small petty individual crimes those. Only matters to the victims who suffered thru them. The victims (actually Survivors) whose lives are ruined because the rights of those men is greater than theirs?
C`mon, argue with me now. Include how you would feel if you were raped, or even if you are forcibly held down and have 7 strange men ejaculate into your mouth (equivalent to a women being raped). Or if that happened to one of you daughters?

Some guy had sexually assaulted a girl who he though was alone. Her boyfriend returned and slashed the guy's neck with a broken bottle.

But let's take this emotive subject down a notch.
What's being reported is an escalation in these crimes. They were already happening before the migrant crisis, but the media wasn't so hungry to report on them then.

Of course these numbers could be significantly lowered if the punishments were a lot worse, but I will take the 25%/10% and our laws over the lifestyle of 100% abuse of women and who knows what percentage of child abuse over in the countries where these assholes are coming from.

But this is just repeating what was already said. | Quote: | |  | | | You wrote "I will take the 25%/10% " Really?

Marton, most of the times you post cool stuff, and you are very informed in some areas (or I enjoy the stuff you post on some topics); but you might have to accept that this topic isn't your strong suit.
And yes, really. If I had to choose between a place with 100% (or nearly 100%) abuse of the entire female population and a place with a 25% abuse of the adult female population I know which place I would choose, as sick as that may sound to you. Which is why I refuse to visit countries that tolerate such lifestyle.

| | | | | I'm not sure you understand the problem. It's not because of the punishment - it's because of the way some see western women.
Incidences of attacks against women in many muslims countries are low because, for these men, their own women are seen as strict muslims.
These same men see western women as an easy lay with no moral compass - I mean, look at the way they dress for example - they're begging for it.
Do children get attacked? Yes - the incidence of child abuse in Peshawar amongst street children is really high - about 90% have been sexually abused.
Of course it's only a small percentage of the population who act like this but that's still a lot of people when the population is so high.
Which translates to a fair number also making the journey to Europe. There's an article here | The following 5 users would like to thank Tom1234 for this useful post: | |
