Eight members of a German far-right group were sentenced to jail Wednesday on terrorism and attempted murder charges for a series of explosives attacks targeting refugees and anti-fascist activists.
Based in Germany's ex-communist east, the so-called "Freital group" had sought to create "a climate of fear" at the height of Germany's refugee and migrant influx in 2015, the court was told.
Its leaders Timo Schulz and Patrick Festing were sentenced to 10 and nine-and-a-half years prison respectively. The other six received custodial terms of between four and eight-and-a-half years.

Hmmm...let's see. Who was it that was just convicted of a series of bombings intended to create "a climate of fear" among a targeted group?
It must have been those nasty Muslim "invaders," right? Not so much.
The only folks "acting like savages" in the topic we discuss today are German nationals. Do you also blame rape/assault/robbery victims for getting raped/assaulted/robbed?

"the topic we discuss today" were your words, not mine.
I guess you want to change topics because you'd prefer not to talk about the bunch of bloodthirsty scumbage who *terrorized* communities. Is that it?
I've got a news flash for you Adolph. Terrorist tactics are *never* justified.
You want to protest? Great! You want to speak your mind and be heard. Rock on!
But trying to kill/maim random people because you don't like that they worship the same god in a different way and/or because of their skins' melanin content? that's criminal.
And make no mistake, those murderous (no, they didn't actually kill anyone, thank goodness, but they sure tried) scumbags are just common criminals who deserve to be treated as such.

I'm not even going to be offended that the invaders want to kill me. I expect it. I wish to return fire.
Germany may experience what Rwanda experienced. I think the invaders will win.

You're exactly the type of scumbag I referred to in another comment [soylentnews.org].
You're a cowardly piece of shit and you'd never "return fire." Not that anyone is actually shooting at you.
The only times you'd get involved in something like that is if you had 10 other guys with you and there was one or two old men or teenage girls you could beat to death.
Or if you cold-cocked [wiktionary.org] someone with a bat or a bottle without warning from behind.
And you'd then consider yourself a "brave hero" for standing up to the evil darkies.
But you're not. You're a cowardly piece of shit who doesn't even have the intestinal fortitude to post with a pseudonymous name on the Internet.
How pathetic is that?

From who? It's time for a reality check here. There's no credible threat of genocide here from the "invaders". Nor are immigrants invaders. I get you have feelz about this, but you're talking about at the least deporting a bunch of people who have done nothing wrong. At worst, you talking about murdering innocent people (as this group attempted on one occasion).
Just fix immigration. There's no need for hysterics.

Hmm...That guy is defending terrorist violence and *i'm* ceding the high ground? That's rich!
Supporting criminals convicted of murder/violence against imagined "invaders" of Germany? I think the analogy was quite apt.

That's dar es salam. [wordpress.com]. The Muslims really go at each other's throats when they are nearly 100% of the population and there is only Islam. Before that, there is also war with any remaining non-Muslims [thereligionofpeace.com] as a distraction.
When the concentration is lower at 80% you can expect state-run ethnic cleansing and genocide, like you see in Egypt, Turkey, Iran, and more.
When the concentration is even lower at 60%, you get all that but only sporadically. Jizya is forced then if not sooner.

I'm sorry. When exactly did this happen? [wikipedia.org] It seems to me that Muslim and non-muslim countries are pretty bloodthirsty, and there has been plenty of ethnic cleansing on all sides. Your straw man is on fire.
There is no such thing as jizya [wikipedia.org] any more. Your straw man has burned to ash.
For the record, it took me more time to format this post than it did to gather *factual* information which is in direct opposition to the bullshit you're spewing.
