Fun German tax fact: Due to the Gebot der Totalgewinnidentitäts even a tax class soley focussed on regular employees would require an entry lesson into business accounting and the structure of balance sheets.

Poem Interpretations teach you to look at a text from multiple angles and analyze the context in which it was written as well as looking at the effect the writer wanted to achieve. This is a critical skill in a democracy, because it teaches you how you can tell what PEGIDA actually means when they talk about Asylbewerber.

Putin apologist- assume all uncited claims are from Russia Today or directly from FSB.

key phrases: Poor plucky little Russia, Spheres of influence, The West is Worse, they was asking for it.
I would actually believe that a islamist style attack on Pegida is credible. The Cui Bono for the islamists is certainly there.
This would strengthen Pegida a lot, likely leading to changes that make Germany a lot less appealing to Muslims, and thus create new recruits and also degrade Germanys ability to win a war of ideas against the Takfiris.

A successful major islamist attack on PEGIDA would be, besides for any direct suffering, an absolute political nightmare, and a really smart move for islamists.

It would be extremely devastating for moderate muslim (and non-muslim, arab/turkish immigrant) majorities, I am sure.

I might even go to a (respectful) pro-free speech rally in support of PEGIDA. Like, I may not agree with your racism, but I'll defend to ... well, you get what I mean.

One murdered PEGIDA supporter would probably do much more to damage the left than Breivik did to damage the right.

The problem is that half hearted Gedichtanalyse degenerates into rote pattern matching and waffling about "on one hand... but on the other hand", which is sufficient for a grade 2 (at least it was at my school :v:).

Beck erhielt allerdings auch Post von einem Polizeibeamten aus der Oberlausitz, in der sich dieser "in tiefer Verachtung" darüber beklagt, dass sich der Grüne "als außenstehender Spinner in innersächsische Belange" einmische. In dem Schreiben, das dem Tagesspiegel vorliegt, schreibt der Polizist, er wolle ein fremdenfeindliches Delikt nicht ausschließen, aber: "In der Regel treten und schlagen rechtsradikale Straftäter jemanden zu Tode. Es ist relativ selten, dass sie jemand ,abstechen'. Dies ist atypisch und in der Regel eher typischer für Personen, die nicht dem mitteleuropäischen oder nordeuropäischen Kulturkreis angehören. In der Regel sind Südeuropäer und fremdländische Personen wie man so sagt ,schnell beim Messer'."

Every time there's an article about homosexuality anywhere you can count on some chucklefuck in the comments asking if it's really necessary for gay people to remind him that they exist, and it's practically censorship that homosexuals have parades but heterosexuals don't, and so on and so on, and I guarantee you that guy's at every PEGIDA rally by similarity of the argument structure alone.

That doesn't change the fact that the police et al. have a disgusting tendency of blaming crimes by nazis and other scum on foreigners. See NSU.

This alone sounds suspicious:

Right... about 280-500 people are killed each year in Germany. The NSU killed 10 (thats ten) people in 7 years which makes them responsible for 0.3 percent of all murders in that timespan. Call me crazy but thats not really a high percentage and should inform every investigation.

Many of the victims of the NSU were believed to be members of the Turkish mafia killed by other Turkish mafia members. Foreigners are suspicious and likely to be violent criminals after all.

These two things taken together aren't painting a pretty picture of the German police force. And, of course, the most important thing is to protect each other. No cop could ever do a bad thing. Saying otherwise has to be punished.

Yeah, this.

I would expect the police to start their investigation methodically, starting with the most probable angle, which probably is organized crime. Depending on your source there are between 57 and 184 (graphic) people murdered because of right-wing extremism but about 13.000 (thats thirteen thousand) people murdered since reunification. It's simply very, very unlikely that a person that was murdered was murdered by Nazis today



We should celebrate that the police does not start murder investigations by looking at Nazis, because the reason they dont is that there are not that many Nazi-murderers, which is GREAT!

I don't think Gutmenschen are primarily concerned about racist hate crime murders, it's not 1938 anymore - and yes, I too don't think this looks like a prototypical right-wing murder. It's more that the police seemingly doesn't take this murder, whatever it may have come from, as serious as every. single. murder should be treated.

Besides for that, while you're statistically correct that for every single given murder, it's unlikely the killer had a swastika tattoo, downplaying violent right-wing extremism has proved itself to not be a good idea again and again. Seriously, what you're saying right now is "only ~100 people were murdered, that's not that bad".

Hey GaussianCopula, what's the % of murders committed by Nazis in cases where the victim is non-white and the perpetrator isn't immediately obvious (like say, a crime of passion with no attempt to hide it or w/e). Being specific like this is the only way your numbers aren't totally bullshit. Is the number high enough yet that dismissing it as a possibility is dumb yet? Methodical my rear end.

Given how this investigation started, a lot of people have serious doubts that this will ever move past the "stabby foreigners" angle. It certainly didn't with the NSU murders. Do you really not see how never investigating Germans in immigrant murder cases might be slightly problematic? Also, context matters here. There was no mass anti-immigrant movement parading through the streets a year ago, the situation is different now.

But even more important, when writing an open letter to Kurt Beck you say things like "there is currently no evidence suggesting a political motive". You DO NOT say things like "Southerners are more the stabby kind of people, so we are looking into them first". This guy is pants-on-head retarded and he is allowed to wear a gun. Very problematic.

A guy, who works as policeman, wrote a letter to Volker Beck, in which he said worded stuff extremly stupid (I have no clue about the facts and if they are valid, but let's just assume they are stupid as well) which Beck than gave to the Tagesspiegel to point proof his point of "police bad".

The police unit that is investigating the murder asked for support from a special center for right-wing violence and there is no hint that they are "blind on the right eye". I have not seen the corpse and therefore I have no idea how stupid it was to believe that it was an open clavical fracture, but thinking about it, it might be not so idiotic depending on the location of the wound. I mean who stabs people in the shoulder area? It's also important to note that the reason they have an autopsy is to find such errors.
