Germany Stunned by Rash of New Year's Gang Assaults of Women

The German government Tuesday condemned dozens of apparently coordinated sexual assaults against women on New Year's Eve in the western city of Cologne blamed on Arab men but warned against anti-migrant scapegoating.

Justice Minister Heiko Mass called for a thorough investigation of the rash of attacks, ranging from groping to at least one reported rape, allegedly committed in a large crowd of revelers during year-end festivities at the city's main train station.

"This represents a new dimension of crime that we will have to get to grips with," he told reporters, adding that the assaults had appeared to be "coordinated".

"The authorities are working intensively to determine who was behind this."

Asked by a journalist whether the attackers could have been refugees, Maas said police were still working to identify them.

"This is not about where someone is from but what they did," he said.

If a crime can be considered of special interest because of the ethnicity of the victim, it should be of equal interest because of the ethnicity of the perpetrator.

I am LMAO. It is so funny that their leader demanded these Muslim Thugs enter their country and now they are trying to hide the fact that the criminals are of Muslim Descent.

This is the reason why we can not afford to have these animals, Yes Jermichael, I said Animals!

Sorry, but in this instance, it absolutely DOES matter where someone came from.....
They are acting like its a regular occurrence where a thousand German men gather and rape women.
Say ANYTHING, just do not hurt the muslim's feelings. Try to act as if they are just a bunch of friendly immigrants just trying to fit into German society.
LOL!
They let thousands of violent, misogynist young men into their country and turned them loose on their own citizens and NOW, have to rationalize their actions.
Remember, the Germans have been disarmed, too.
What are they going to do? Write a mean letter to the editor?
LOL!
Keep cheering.
