Although this thread does not function under the same strict guidelines as the USPMT, it is still a general practice on TL to provide a source with an explanation on why it is relevant and what purpose it adds to the discussion. Failure to do so will result in a mod action.

It sure is, as long as you're male, it's not night and/or new years eve. Or maybe Karneval, we'll see.

The fact that men are more likely to be the victim of violent crime than women and yet you think they're safe kind of proves his point.

I don't think even you know what you're talking about. But from the guy who thinks there could be a global conspiracy by women to end the human race through abortion rights, I'm not surprised.

come on dude, you PC people were demanding verbal(but not only) consent from women to be given to men, before anything sexual would start to happen and then argued how that consent could be withdrawn at anytime and the dude should just live with his blue balls because yea, all women were victims and need protection.

so what the fuck has happened from then 'till now?. you have hundreds of molested women and your stance resumes itself to(more or less) - well, it is kinda bad, somehow, but you know, the refugees and the economy and the real politik ... so yea, women would just take one for the team because ... fuck knows, but we're having ideals here!.

Feel free to point to a post where I'm supposed to have argued that "women should just take one for the team". Like I said, you have no clue of what you're talking about. Which is, again, not surprising from the typical bigot calling others "PC people".

don't worry, i won't report you for name calling, i'm above that.
thing is, this is not a matter of what you said but a matter of what you didn't said. get it?.
your silence is shameful in itself.

(lol, at your edit in the first post; the amount of ideas, notions, concepts that bounce in my head are inconceivable to you. i could write books you'd read in awe but for me it would be as if it was nothing; just another grey matter flicker. 5 min of those could entertain your whole lifetime and i wouldn't even break a sweat).

It could happen, but the responsability is on current politics. You see, here is the problem:

1) Politics/Media deny and sugar coats some events. This leads to the impossibility of having a rational discussion about certain topics (i.e immigration) because one gets immediately labelled as fascist, racist, nazi and whatever.

2) However, people are not 'brain-washed sheeps that follow populists', as many on TL seem to believe. They simply see the problem is there, right in front of their eyes. Maybe politicians do not see it with their secutiry staff, but the worker coming home after his restaurant shift at 2 am sees it.

3) People becomes engaged with the problem and they want to face it: but where do they go, since mainstream politics seem to ignore it? They start to vote for parties that, while maybe not being saints (but I doubt there are saints in politics anyways) are simply TALKING about the problem and proposing solutions.

In substance, the politically correctness machine developed by the western world is simply pushing people towards extremist parties.

Or do you really believe 20/30% of population got suddenly brainwashed by new fascists and nazis, incapable of seeing the 'rational values of the western world' and acting like sheeps? While simply some years ago they were all good people who saw the truth and voted for Merkel?

Well, Pegida isn't even a party. You mean AfD?

In either case, I am thinking no. Any (national) 2 digit turnout for a party right of CDU/CSU would surprise me really.

That is assuming the economy doesn't get considerably worse, but I see no reason why it shouldn't stay strong.

STOCKHOLM — Swedish police faced allegations of a cover-up Monday for failing to inform the public of widespread sexual assaults against teenage girls at a music festival last summer.

Police hadn't mentioned the August incidents at the "We are Sthlm" festival until newspaper Dagens Nyheter reported on them this weekend following a string of sexual assaults and robberies on New Year's Eve in Cologne, Germany.

Stockholm police spokesman Varg Gyllander confirmed to The Associated Press on Monday there was "a large number" of sexual assaults during the five-day festival and that scores of suspects were detained.

Gyllander couldn't confirm the ethnicity of the alleged attackers in Stockholm but said "this involves young men who are not from Sweden."

Roger Ticoalu, who heads the city government's events department, told the AP that a "large part" of those detained were from Afghanistan, many carrying temporary ID-cards issued to asylum-seekers.
