Cologne Mayor Slammed For Telling German Women It Is Their Responsibility To Keep Rapists At "Arm's Length"
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.
Cologne's female mayor: women must "maintain arm's length distance to strangers". Everything about this depresses https://t.co/8qkrawHnmj

Unbelievable. Cologne Mayor reacts to migrant mass sexual assault by giving “guidance” to young German women on proper dress & behaviour
— A Libertarian Rebel (@A_Liberty_Rebel) January 5, 2016
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.

it is not bullshit. why do you think they attack some people and not others? because they are not attractive? no, because they look more difficult than the drunk girl acting stupid. self respect wards off all sorts of attacks. that is the first line of defense.
while it isn't cologne my daughter goes clubbing all the time with her friends. her friends start getting harassed as soon as they appear drunk. my daughter doen't drink so when a guy starts bothering her all she has to say is "fuck off" and they go. her friends aren't so good at it and she has had to intercede on their behalf all the time.
if you are a western woman you have been ruined by feminism. you can no longer help it. there is a lot more strength in a feminine woman. western women no longer know how to weild it properly.
I agree with most of that but I don't know what you mean by feminism. I don't think I'm a feminist. I don't like being told what to do but I don't tell anyone else what to do either. I take care of myself because I was raised that way and I am not suing type unless maybe if somebody stole money from me. I am nice to everybody unless I have a good reason. I don't try to dominate anyone.
I don't ever really have trouble. I know from an interest in psychology that psychopaths can detect women with histories of sexual abuse (common targets). I read a well done study and used to have a video from the study where normal men and diagnosed paths were told to watch women quickly walk across the room infront of them and then were asked questions about the womans past. The psychos had a nearly 100% accuracy at picking out women who were victims of child sexual abuse. The normal men thought they would test high but actually did quite poorly so you are definitely right about predators picking targets.
feminism has redefined the strength of a woman by assigning masculine traits to proper behavior rather than emphasizing and nurturing the inherent natural strength of a woman. in fact the feminist movement has attempted to squash the feminine traits of woman by making slutty clothes acceptable and bashing mothers who want a traditional role. i am lucky(and so is she), i've got a great girl, sweet as pie and strong(in mind) as a bull. no one will fuck with her but she can still make them turn their heds without walking around half naked and acting like a man.
i think we are on the same page from slightly different angles.
Good for you I'm glad your happy. I think it's natural for young women to want to be attractive, I have always that that going on the classy side of sexy was much preferable to trashy sexy and has far better results with the men it attracts. I personally don't care that much about being sexy very often and I have never been an attention whore. I like being strong and I have been an athlete my entire life. I love to do things and push the limits of my abilities. It's not about beating men at their own game. I'm an anomoly in too many ways to count and I believe I was different from birth. I am sure I was affected by culture somewhere but I think having options is good too.
sad that ladies like you are so scarce
Let's use our heads, and force that Cologne bimbo to do some math:
A typical young, healthy person can run at 5-8 m/sec. If they are within 10 yds of you, you have 1 second to ALL of the following:
1. (a) Become aware of Threat, (b) determine type & level of threat, and (c) commit to Action. That's some faaast brain processing. Under pressure.
2. Run, if you think you can run faster and longer than they can, and your escape routes are viable, More fast brain processing. Under yuuuge pressure.
3. Stand & Fight: Draw a weapon, aim and shoot. At least once, preferable twice at the leader.
A Special Ops or CIA agent could not do all that, unless they were 007 or Archer (who can do anything), much less an untrained civilian female. It's sheer fantasy and lunacy. It's WILLFUL AND RECKLESS ENDANGERMENT of civilians. That bitch should be fired and sued into oblivion.
p.s. Any such threat within 3-5 meters cannot be dealt with by anyone other than a trained and experienced fighter (Spec Ops, Spy). "Arm's length"? LMAO. Anyone is toast at that distance, when confronted by a group of crazy Muzzies. Only an Uzi can save your ass at that point.
Intelligence agencies around the world have had one word on their minds for years now; global jihad. And then they let half the ME into Germany, I just can't accept anyone could be that stupid.
Exactly. Is there a drill going on in Cologne right now because these guys always need a justification for something. Operation rape Germany has commenced.
they let half the ME into Germany,...
With a large percentage by way of Greece. It's a good thing the whole EU thing has been such a resounding success.
Thanks Georgie Boy, sleep well tonight.
This has evolved far beyond normal human comprehension. The world has TRULY gone insane. Entire Countries committing cultural suicide like Swedistan and now Deutschistan. War will follow.
What was it one of our idiot leaders said?
"Women can urinate or poo if they are being sexually assaulted ..."
(hubris)
(when the angry monster of human regret awakens?)
(the world will shake)
But maybe those dudes who said Marshall Tito "cured Yugoslavia" of ethnic hatred were right?
(except there ain't no Yugoslavia no more)
(brace for impact - Yugoslavia circa 1990's is going on the road next year)
I agree with her if by "arm's length" she means "firearm's length." I'm sure many Germans now strongly agree with this sentiment and will seek to buy firearms ASAP.
The Germans could emulate the Americans during Revolutionary Days.
Dress in burqas and take care of business, yada, yada...
"... powerless to protect their property, person, and borders."
The government isn't powerless. They're actively attacking "property, person, and borders."
Asking the victims to change their behaviour is just as "Unbelievable and intolerable". Really stupid.
Without inciting any more problems in her city, she should just say that any assaults and criminal behaviour from the newly arrived will earn them a one way ticket to an inflatable in the Med.
If it stops some actual assaults and rapes, since the targets made themselves less available and convenient, it wasn't stupid.
Germans, more than most, know the cost of retreat from aggression, given its effectiveness on the Jews.
You are an ignorant coward.
Fuck the ticket home.
Dig a really big pit with a wooden wall at its edge with the balls of each and every one of these fuckers nailed to it before their screaming carcasses are thrown in. The immigration tide will be stemmed.
HA the feminists keep going on about victim blaming, now they're backpeddling and excusing this shit.
The blame only lies with the attacker when it's a white male apparently, but if Muhammad is the rape artist that's the woman's fault.
That's because the movement's core was never about 'feminism' or women rather, it is and always was about 'a means to an end' - Marxist style. Only the dupe foot soldiers ever bought into the movement being about their 'liberation'...
The first man-kraut (I hope they exist) that kills a muzloid for raping his daughter will be villified as a hater.
Yes, you get it. Destruction of the white West. The mayor and Merkel are obedient puppets.

Dreamy eyed progressive in a position of power?
Interesting how mass rape starts moments after Bill Clinton makes a stump speech for Billlary.
Clinton staffer: Hmmph. They added a campaign stop in Cologne for Bill.
I looked into repatriating into Germany; as ethnically, racially, I am German for the most and important part.
But working American whites aren't welcomed home like in Israel, apparently I'm a liability because I might take someone's union job.
But not these Africans, they're welcomed home with cellphones and income chips apparently.
This is a call to your broken parliament, will you accept ethnic Germans in at least a partial percentage to those of African descent that you accept? If so, where do I sign the papers? Eight+generation German-American.
I wait for no response. Do not vilify our reaction to your flagrant lack of action.
You will find me at home.
Hey, same deal here. I have a German surname, and a family history of very hard work. I have an uncle who fixes watches, cousins who live simple lives and do things like invent sliding doors for delivery trucks, teach electronics at a local college, and as for me well let's say I'd make a German proud of some great achievements not to mention doing a damn good job raising productive kids. It seems the remarkable German genes persist, and we contribute.
But yeah so I took my son to Germany around four years ago. Scouted all kinds of opportunity with which to take my existing business and get it going there. I came back here and hired a German lady to prepare some letters and make calls, I had the EXACT same ambition as you. Return to Germany a few generations since the original ancestors left, but it was not meant to be.
Now I look at the cesspool of Arabs there, no I don't want to live in Germany. I have a new idea, find a young single German woman to start a family with here. Now that would be nice eh?
Would she feel that way if she was the one getting poked in the whiskers?
"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."
So what exactly is the "jolly and frisky attitude during our carnival" a sign of?
Bitch apparently needs a little time in the ghettos she doesn't believe exist.
I and mine will come home if you can't handle the mess you've created.
:)
It's now a signal that they should be stoned to death on sight by the nearest group of Sharia enforcers.
Kababs are so tasty though:(
I hope that stupid bitch gets raped.
you wouldn't pay enough to anyone to touch that hack
uh oh libral socialist europeans looking like shit..WATCH OUT
wear a burka to protect yourself. those arab men have not been trained to ignore a nice set of tits and a tight ass wrapped in see through cloth or none at all, because of the fear of feminist wrath. lol they will learn once they hook up with a western bitch.
Uhh, no, they will beat the total shit out of their Kraut GFs.
Then they will rape them some moar.
Then they will cut off their heads.
Then they will still fuck them until rigor sets in.
Wear a Burka German Women ...NOW. golly lady fug off
Whoa. She could be armless and no one is going near her. Therefore she has absolutely no experience in being harassed and assaulted.
She's been googling rape sloth memes, got her damn well programmed too.
Start snail-mailing her your happiest of thoughts. Perhaps with pics.
Awww common you visionary progressive liberal feminist Mayor of Cologne tell them like you really mean it!:
'Those sluts were all provocatively dressed with their tits and asses hanging out and deserved everything they got! Those whores were asking for it!'
Now Ms Reker doesn't that feel better?
Yeah! Those whores probably still all had their clitorises too! You know they wanted it!
Seriously, this Cologne Mayor needs call a presser and just say, "Sorry about my earlier comments. Basically I'm a really horrible person. A soulless, new world order tool. A real douche bag, loser, sell-out, and traitor. I'll be resigning now. That is all."
all that's missing is her picking up the nailgun and putting it to her own head
When I was in American grade school my mother got a reputation of shooting first and asking questions later over oiling dirt roads. When pedophilia came to town the courts and churches such as Mormon and Jewish temples gave cover and pedophiles could take kids out of school freely without question. I was off limits. Protect yourself.
