Germans were always nazis.


Hitler was the Nazi and he was Austrian...
Stop being such a Arschloch - I thought you canadians were so friggen nice ey?
 Quoting: Babsi



And WW1 started because of an Austrian Duke shot by a Serb...WTF?

And seems to me that all the other "wars" America so gallantly offered up its youth for, were started by others.

Motive? Profit? Currency domination? 800 and counting foreign military bases?

Look, if she says an imigrant NEEDS TO LEARN GERMAN or has to go, ok I can agree, people have to work and so speak german.
But closing up against all immigrants not speaking german when they want to enter is very.....not european...

I think the US should make friends with Islam and bring peace back to the world...
 Quoting: easymind


Islamist choose to live the way they do and they have their own countries -- let them stay there. I don't like them coming here imposing their beliefs on our schools, businesses,etc. Just let them stay in their own countries. It's not difficult.

Re: Speak German Or You're Not Welcome In Germany...Oh Shit!!!!!!!!!!
Dont let them fool you.

Merkel is a flip flop.

Her party among the others is responsible for mass immigration of poor people into germany over the last decades.

Poor people dont have a chance in their homeland, so they go out and search for other countries where they might have a chance. Surely they have not much chances for work in highly industrial countries with a good education niveau. But welfare in germany is better than welfare somrwhere in Anatolia. It's much more comfortable to live from welfare money in a rich state than to be a farmer with no welfare money in a poor country.

A country can absorb such immigrants to a certain point. But at a certain point the balance is lost. It's the moment when you have whole neighborhoods in big cities which are only inhabited by people from certain countries. Living their own rules from their homeland. You know the rest...so called "no go areas", crimes etc. ppt

You mean that a immigrant can't come into Germany and expect Germany to suddenly change all of the signs and literature to that immigrants language? Hmmmm, Yet Germany has the gall to shake her finger at the US and tell us to accept Mexican immigrants and bow to their every whim. Sounds a bit hypocritical yeah?

No multi-cultural society has ever survived!
Study history.
Here in Canada we have two official languages...so far it has worked out OK.
But
A suburb of Vancouver ...Richmond...is mostly Chinese.
Drives me nuts when I can't read more than %60 of street signs...
What are they saying in Chinese?
Fortunatly Richmond is mostly land fill.
When the big EQ happens it will sink.
 Quoting: DonQ 1063239

That's the problem. You have trouble adapting just like many Americans (and people in general).

I don't understand how someone can take offense to somebody being here that can't speak the "national" language. I work with a few guys that don't speak much English but try. Just as I did when I was stationed in Germany and took several German courses. I have a knack for learning other languages because I enjoy communication. However, I am not offended by anyone who lives here because they don't speak English. I don't know their education level. I don't know if it is strenuous and boring for them. As long as they show the same respect to me as I show to them I'm good.

Re: Speak German Or You're Not Welcome In Germany...Oh Shit!!!!!!!!!!
No, I agreed with you - but that is not the whole issue. I don't like how she turns it into a campaign that will only throw more fuel into the fire. I worry what's becoming of Germany...and I see hard working people struggling. She won't change anything...just cause more hate. And when people realize after elections that nothing's changed, what will happen? Same disappointment most people experience now with Obama in the US. That's all I'm saying.
 Quoting: Babsi

The fact that so many politicians show they are xenophobic or at least fearful of Muslims and support nationalism is not good. Most people here seem to not understand or don't care, but it doesn't bring peace.
But some stuff maybe could have been handled better when people immigrated. I don't believe in 911 terrorism profit wars, but I do see trouble between some immigrants not getting accepted and slowly becoming depressed and disappointed in life in general. These people can have kids that start trouble. And it all costs money to have that misery continue...
So it is probably a good thing that new people do get taken along a ride of learning the language, maybe a skill and to the search of work...
But you say, the laws are there already, it is just fuelling anti-islam feelings. Well did you see already we read her statement wrong, and she did not bring in religion, we did (and probably all her listeners...)

So for now, we can relax a bit...

Ok what does this have to do with national socialism and adolf? Many cities already have ghettos here, but voluntary ones, if you go to parts of berlin or cologne you would think you are in istanbul.
Now wanting immigrants to at least try to integrate is too much to ask? Its not like we are invading people, expelling and torturing the inhabitants like certain countries.
This has nothing to do with racism, my father is iranian, we have ditched islam and speak german very well.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1132364


That's exactly what I'm saying - it's the "alle ueber den Kamm scheren" I don''t like. You shouldn't be thrown into the same bucket with everybody else. But her speech says just that, that people like you don't fit in. The regular Hans and Gretl on the streets won't know the difference between you or another guy from the middle east, will they? She instills hate crime. The government screwed up, now they want to turn people against each other and make life for innocent people like you very difficult and dangerous.
Do I think the law should be changed? Heck yeah...but not because of the muslims, certain countries and groups other than them cause more problems and they do nothing to integrate, instead commit crimes and live off the german system.
There's a bigger picture to this story. If she actually changes the law, then I stand corrected, but I doubt it. And the german speaking part to immigrate is already in place. So nothing new there.

Welfare is not the problem, integration is, it is not like the welfare is lost, all that money goes right back into the economy, much of it even directly as tax, 20% of what they spend is value added tax, then add all the taxes on gas and drugs.
But when immigrants build small countries inside a country, that is so different, problems will arise.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1132364



How can someone speak Democrat (welfare OK) and Republican (kick out the foreigners)? So not US.

Hell, San Francisco alone has Little Italy, Chinatown, Gay Pridesville, more than half from Mexico, and the main Federal Reserve Banksters ... all kinds of "small countries" and we love 'em, have parades, visit their restaurants and tourist traps, bus in the kids for field trips, let them spend their money, and never have a problem.

Ooops, we're liberal up here...and no, we're not broke...only about 1/6th of the world GDP.

We don't give a shit whether we hire them as a nanny or they make us a loan or they make dynamite Chop Suey or Lasagne or keep the local 7-11 open all night. Even the illegals get to pay income taxes...ya'll come on up. LOL

Hell, we don't even care if they speak English, as long as they behave themselves and/or make a profit. Se habla espanol.

People forget about Ellis Island ... immigrants and "small countries" made America. That is liberal and proud ... Italian-American, Chinese-American, Mexican-American, Gay-American, Polish-American, German-American (my family), Rich-American and proud. No American on this thread doesn't have this heritage.
