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

Mayor of #cologne already victim blaming. If the German govt had any guts they'd deport the lot tomorrow https://t.co/dun3DESp6F

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.

The one good thing about this is that the EU will expose the Muslim problem (despite media cover ups) - such that we may be able to limit the number of Muslims we let in. If nothing else, the EU troubles will stand out as a huge campaign issue against Hillary - if we get Trump or Cruz.
A wise man on ZH once said Europe would be in flames before America even farted.
Exhibit A.
Bullshit.
California farting a methane leak came before the Silvester "gang of 1000"
This story is fake as. And the mayor is right, you want to wear mini skirts and hot pants with your titties out, of course men are going to want to rape you. We are programmed to want this,
Some of us fear the law however, and will never act upon these desires.
Some of us don't care about the law, and some are not familiar with the laws.
Either way, have some fucking decency girls and dress modestly. It's much more sexy and real men will respect you for it.
I believe you're wearing bourka while you write your comment, or else I'd be very disappointed. F'king idiot. In winter, women do not wear their tits out you moron
Wanting to screw a women and wanting to rape her are two very different things. Real men of Christiandom don't need the law to restrain us.
Familiar my ass! I'd like you to go and actually find a man on this fkn planet that would be shocked at the revelation rape is universally illegal.
And more on their way as soon as springtime comes.
Blaming the sexual assault victims is not PC, but what's even more unPC is blaming brown people for anything.
This is so messed up. It won't take long for another Slobodan Milosovic type to show up and Europe will become Sarajevo during the last Balkan war.
Well I for one would like to say that the only place that you can legally blow Muslim brains on the ground is through good old uncle sam. Sam has one of the only PC correct ways of doing that. Ask Odroneme
The bitches that run Germany need to grow some nuts.
Hillarious. The people of liberal progressivism who claim to stand for women's rights and feminism tell their supporters it's their fault for being too attractive to their rapist immigrants. You just can't make this shit up.
This truly proves that liberalism is a mental DISEASE!!! I bet you feminists would give your left tit for a good Christian man right about now huh?
For the record I tried!
"There’s always the possibility of keeping a certain distance of more than an arm’s length"
that's what guns were used for
before loonies banned them to make everyone safer, you know
Boycott. Turn the purse off. Boycott the whole fucking thing by the true engine, the German people. Starve the beast for a month.
Even a rabid muzzloid wouldn't poke that beak-nosed hag.
She's the safest broad in Germany. Hence, she can afford to have these views.
I think the Muslims have figured out our modern leftist culture is pretty weak and rotten at the core. When you see Jaden Smith (son of Will Smith) as the Louis Vutton face of women's clothing: http://news.yahoo.com/jaden-smith-face-louis-vuitton-152428414.html?bcmt...
...you figure they are a push-over. A bunch of neutered, gender-confused weak assholes who deserve to have their women raped and their men chased off. They will kill all the open minded transgender, understanding, multicultural, tolerant lefties first. They will laugh at them as they kill them.
The only people they will fear will be the exact people the Left marginalized. It will be skinheads or here in the USA, rebel flag, camoflauge hunting gear, gun toting, Jesus-loving, redneck, hunters, and ex-military.
Personally, I'd throw Jaden and Caitlyn and a few choice others to them first before the shooting starts.
An old friend over there just told me:
For a woman being molested by a foreigner, it is still considered racist to say that she was molested by a foreigner.
On the one hand, Germany has millions of islamic refugees, on the other hand their secret service says that the threat by islamic terrorist is even higher than in 9/11 time.Bringing both of this together is, well, racist of course.
lol,....like there was an actual threat of islamic terror on or before 911
Am I supposed to hate female German mayors today or just females in general?
What about men?
Play it safe and just hate everyone equally.
If your trading is as intelligent as your commenting, you must be losing shit tons of money
If Hillary had a sister her name would be Henriette Reker.
It's probably worth mentioning that Hillary supports bringing these rapists to America because she is a supporter of women's rights - unless it involves sexual assault or rape.
In America Women Have the Right TO an abortion and this is the only right the left gives a shit about, because you know what are they going to do with all those rape babies after they convert America to Sharia law?
Hillary is also opposed to women using firearms to prevent rape. If NOW gave a shiite about women, they'd stand side by side with the NRA.
It's probably worth mentioning that Hillary supports bringing these rapists to America because she is a supporter of women's rights - unless it involves sexual assault or rape by Bill.
ftfy
<sarc>
Hang on, I've seen Star Wars!
Women can take down men three times their size.
Those Arab dudes had their arse's kicked!
Don't believe the propaganda
</sarc>
Looks like Breitbart blew ope the story first, and then everyone else in the MSM grudgingly folowed:
http://www.breitbart.com/london/
The first steps towards sharia law in Germany.
Next: stay inside
Lets just call it like it is.
The cologne Mayor has a PRO-RAPE stance because she secretly has the desire to get raped, she walks around skanky all day long begging to get raped by her coveted Islamic Refugees, but ALAS she is just too ugly and undesirable to ever have her fantasy fulfilled.
Europe Population ZERO by 2040, the entire Eurozone is going to become an Islamic Caliphate Rape Colony.
Atleast move the art out of the Eurozone before the Mona lisa gets raped and jizzed on then painted over with a black towel around her face.
There are some common sense self protection strategies, they don't even involve guns or fighting. People who don't make use of them assume that the world is full of fluffy bunnies and unicorns. They're living in a delusional fantasy land. Like the people who believe the police will save you.
Yes, just like that mayor who thinks a person can hold off 10-25 men at arms length.
Some people have the brainpower of a lesser monkey.
They talk and move but at times they spout nonsense like that and prove they are still nothing more then monkeys.
Does it mean I can sexual assault the mayor and say "It's not my fault"? I love liberalism.
Would you really want to?
She is pretty gross.
Clearly hardly a target even for a north African or Arab deprived for a couple of years.
Only if your name is mohammed. Otherwise, you'd be nailed for some microaggression offense as soon as you looked her way.
IDIOCRACY has come to EU
Idiots in governments will ruin this civilization
you realize that "will" implies this is in the future, right?
Germans, Time to put Reker at arm's length on a rope.
I think we need a noose pin - like the ribbon pins.
It should say "Keep it up and you'll get this."
Once again, my handle name is my comment . . . the insanity is spreading and is starting to look like David Icke may have been on to something.
The bitch-cunt speaks from the surrender monkey's script.
The Muslim Call To Prayer is just a reminder you're getting raped next!
This woman (along with Merkel) are enough evidence that we need moar women controlling the government.
We cannot afford another day without females in power.
In fact, I would say this justifies Hillary being appointed President by congressional decree.
I know I know totally radical and unconstitutional you say.
But women are better than men.
They are never wrong.
I mean, have you lately ever heard a woman admit to being wrong, in your personal life?
You won't because women are always right!
Hillary/Fiorina for Grand Inquisitoresses!
Its time to get rid of men. All they are are sperm donors.
We don't need men anymore.
Well, muslim brown men are okay.
But not white men. They are all rapists.
LOL! Good one.
dickhead.
Out of respect and tolerance towards their new citizens perhaps German women could adopt the burka and refrain from driving and walking unaccompanied in public? STASI code-named agent "Erika" currently NSA GESTAPO asset Fatty Merkill will be modelling the Frumpy Dame spring collection of famed Saudi Arabian designer Abdul Kamelfikker in all upcoming public outings along with Mayoress Reker (Germany's answer to USSA'S ravishing Nancy Pelotas).
Remember Europeons, if you see something... burka it! Keep your wenches in a bag and avoid hornydonkey goat fikking gang banging provocation.
Three Jews have the answers for their Europeons dilemma; breed yourself to extinction!
And some silly Goyim imagine that this invasion of kamel fikking ISIS mutts is due to Agent Merkill's "Christian" love for those whose lands her Washing town masters have turned to rubble.

If I were a woman over there I would have a gun on me at all times now. With several extra mags because you want to be able to make your point.
Fuck Germany, they are starting another European war, 3d time in 100 years
