Punch-up at German Asylum Center Leaves 6 Injured
2015-11-01
[AnNahar] Some 50 people at a German shelter for asylum seekers engaged in a violent brawl overnight, hurling chairs and beating each other with table legs, leaving six people injured, police said Saturday.

The punch-up, which took place in the northern town of Itzehoe, was the latest illustration of the rising tensions between refugees at the country's overstretched reception centers.

The dispute broke out during the evening meal on Friday when an Arabic-speaking refugee insulted a group of Kurds, a police statement said. The confrontation quickly escalated, drawing in around 50 people who threw tables, chairs and benches and beat each other with table legs.

Security guards tried to break up by fight by using pepper spray and around 50 police and six dogs were called in as backup. Four asylum seekers were treated for head injuries and two security guards sustained light injuries, the statement said.

Two young Kurds -- one Syrian and one Iraqi -- as well as a Syrian were locked away

 after being singled out as the main instigators, with police saying they would be transferred to "other centers around the country".
...where no doubt they will be unable to resist organizing similar excitements. Why on earth were they not immediately deported? Such people do not make good Germans.
Such incidents have multiplied at refugee centers across Germany, which is expecting to receive up to a million asylum requests by the end of the year and is struggling to accommodate everyone.

#3  Will they still be "German cars" if they are assembled only by non Germanic workers?

#2  This is a "Dog Bites Man" headline. Brawls between 'refugees' are the new normal.

BTW, as I expected and feared the ultimatum to Merkel issued by Bavarian ally Seehofer turned out to be nothing but a piece of failure theater.

Nothing changed. Taking into account chain migration effects Germany is taking in 'refugees' at a rate of of about 10,000,000 per year.

Germany might be the Black Swan of 2016.

...well, there was a time in the streets of Bavaria about a lifetime ago...oh, wait, that was instigated by an Austrian. You're right.
