Cologne Mayor Slammed For Telling German Women It Is Their Responsibility To Keep Rapists At "Arm's Length"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Earlier today, we brought you an eyewitness account of the melee that unfolded in Cologne, Germany on New Year’s Eve.

Allegedly, hundreds of 18-35 year-old males “of Arab and North African origin” robbed and sexually assaulted women gathered in the city center. Assaults were also reported in Hamburg and Stuttgart. Authorities are attempting to discern if there's a connection.

Ivan Jurcevic, a hotel club bouncer who was on the job (literally) in Cologne when the trouble started, had the following to say in a video posted to social media: "These people that we welcomed just three months ago with teddy bears and water bottles ... started shooting at the cathedral dome and started shooting at police. Well seasoned police officers then confessed to me that they never saw something like this in their entire lives. They called it a 'civil war like situation.'"

Here's an account from a woman who claims to have been a victim of an assualt:

"The men surrounded us and started to grab our behinds and touch our crotches. They touched us everywhere. I wanted to take my friend and leave. I turned around, and in that moment, someone grabbed my bag."

That is of course the last thing Angela Merkel wants to hear. The Chancellor is struggling to convince Germans that Berlin’s open-door policy for Mid-East asylum seekers isn’t set to tear the country’s social fabric apart at the seams.

For some, the events that unfolded on New Year’s Eve validate concerns about the risk Germany is running by bringing 1.1 million migrants into a country with a population of just 82 million. "Mrs Merkel, is Germany 'colorful and cosmopolitan' enough for you after the wave of crimes and sexual attacks?,” AfD party leader Frauke Petry tweeted.

"Ms Merkel where are you? What do you say? This scares us!,” read a sign held by one of hundreds of protesters who gathered in the city center in Cologne on Tuesday.

For her part, Cologne mayor Henriette Reker called the attacks “unbelievable and intolerable” but then suggested that the victims should have acted different to avoid getting themselves into trouble. She also seemed to suggest that perhaps those responsible for the attacks were simply unaware of Germany’s cultural norms.

Now, Reker is drawing sharp criticism for her contention that women in Germany should adopt a “code of conduct” as a kind of rapist repellent.

“In her first public appearance since the incident, Reker instructed women on how they could protect themselves,” Huffington Post writes “The proposed code of conduct included telling women to stay in groups, not be separated, always try and keep their distance and always stay an arms length away from strangers.”

“There’s always the possibility of keeping a certain distance of more than an arm’s length – that is to say to make sure yourself you don’t look to be too close to people who are not known to you, and to whom you don’t have a trusting relationship," she said. "Women would also be smart not to go and embrace everyone that you meet and who seems to be nice. Such offers could be misunderstood, and that is something every woman and every girl should protect herself from," Reker continued, digging herself an even deeper hole."

She also advised women to not be in a celebratory mood.

Needless to say, the comments created a veritable firestorm on social media. 

German Justice Minister Heiko Maas was note amused: "I don't think much of the how-to-behave tips for women such as #anarm'slength. It is not women who are responsible, but the perpetrators," he wrote, in a tweet.

Later, Reker would say that the media made it appear as though she was confining her prevention suggestions to women when in fact, she also had advice for would-be assailants. To wit: "We need to explain to people from other cultures that the jolly and frisky attitude during our Carnival is not a sign of sexual openness."

You'd be forgiven for suggesting that perhaps some German politicians are going out of their way to avoid applying negative stereotypes to migrants. 

In any event, Germany's "jolly and frisky" attitude toward refugees is disappearing quicker than a handbag in Cologne on New Year's Eve and one wonders how long it will ultimately be before the public simply revolts against a government they feel is powerless to protect their property, person, and borders.

I have a garment suggestion for German women:

Bacon-scented Chastity Belts, by BMW: "Form follows function."  And "Scent follows sense".

Guys named Axel, Dieter, Franz, Hans or Klaus will love it.  Guys named Abdul or Mohammed, will hate it.

How about a 40 cal Beretta PX4 semiauto with 14 in the clip and one in the chamber. Somehow, I think that would be more effective.

Nah, a 9mm is just fine, you caliber0-crazy Yankee.  

Something German1, Austrian2 or Czech3, with a 7+1 or 17+1 capacity.  But not Belgian.

0 The higher the caliber, the higher the cost.  Just the way the bullet Salesmen guys like it.

1 H&K, Sig Sauer, Walther PPK, 

2 Glock

3 CZ

If a Beretta (for famous reliability), then a 9mm.

It's time for women, each of whom deserved to be adored, to choose.

Neo-liberal feminism offers multikulti rape that you have to hold yourself responsible for.

Liberty - and not the fake liberty offered by Republicans and ersatz-conservatives, but the real liberty that comes from a life where government is usually just a distant rumor that you know exists but doesn't impact your daily life - that liberty offers you the right, and the responsibility, to treat yourself as sacrosanct. But this comes with a terrible price. The price of being responsible for your own actions. The price of having to bear the burden of your own self-defense. The price of defining yourself as a person, no matter what the dominant language or religion or culture demands that you do. The right and the responsibility to love yourself.

Anybody who tries to promise that liberty is easy is a deciever. Liberty is hard, and involves standing up for yourself even when you're all alone and there's no one to rely on.

In the end, the only reward liberty offers is that you have to - or get to - live in your own company.

No bullet. She needs to experience what these women experience and then live with that fact.

No bullet but also no professional mental support. Let her deal with those thoughts alone.

Let every crevice of her body ooze sperm when they are done with her.

I have a better idea... learn to take an eye out with your thumb.  Blowing knees out with side kicks could also be helpful.  If the come near you just look all weak, intimidated and innocent and then..... BLAM!  Go get a new knee, rapist! 

Of course the psychos are probably roaming in groups so if you don't have adequate weapons they are pretty much screwed..... literally.

Somebody should be asking their government who paid transport for these ISIS refugees to Europe and why.

Sure, if you're Hanibal Lecter or James Bond.

A safer and less expected cut is severing the FEMORAL ARTERY, near the groin.  The fucker (or "would-be-fucker") will bleed out in ~1 minute, with no help possible.

Which, BTW, is exactly what Hanibal does to a Gypsy in Florence.  He used a short 2-3" claw blade:  effective, but easy to conceal.

I have been practicing my whole life.  Martial arts, all the men in my family are boxers and I have boxed some too.  Even had a chance to learn a few tricks from some Fokai fighters and have taken a tactical knife class at the gun range.   

I am skinny and don't look like a threat at all, I would make great bait.  That's what these people should do is bait these bastards and have the girls run into an alley where real men that don't rape people are waiting.

been following the practices of my hero william fairbairn.   have a pretty good collection. sykes-fairbairn.  ve-42.  sog desert dagger is my favorite.  a 3.5 inch tanto blade is lethal if you jab it ever so gently in the correct place.  the little soft spot at the base of the skull,  shuts someone down like flicking a light switch.  i have my long guns, and shotguns, and handguns, and fun guns. but in a crowd like those people were, i think the blade is the best weapon.   to bad going about with a sword is out of fashion although my training in that area is limited to the parade ground.

even better, try some self respect. i know the concept is difficult for a feminist but respect for oneself gets respect and a firm "fuck off" properly presented(not as a stark raving bitch) is the best deterrent before having to resort to violence to protect oneself.

Bullshit and don't call me a feminist. 

If you are walking around Cologne for some reason and an ISIS evacuee approaches you and your spidey sense goes off you better find a way to take that guy out with a quickness.  That lady said it's their responsibility to keep these guys arms length away fine... if the come within ten feet blow their damn kneecaps off or bear spray the whole gang of them in the face.  How are you supposed to communicate with these guys that don't even speak your language anyway? 

Predators do have a nose for the weak and that's probably why I have never had an attempt. Guys like me I'm not a troll or anything but nobody has ever tried.  They know when your high risk somehow.  It's somewhat disappointing because I would like to capitalize on all my efforts, especially if they bring those bastards over here.  I figure it's better me than some other girl.
