If you throw 5 pound rocks from the pavement, burning gasoline at policemen, if you use slings to accelerate metal marbles to speeds where they penetrate plexiglass visors on helmets and shields, when whole wall segments of concrete get thrown from elevated positions, when you use baseball bats to swing at the heads of policemen, when you chase policemen throught he streets, isolate them, club them and kick at their throat when they lie on the ground, then this is attemtpoted murder, and nothign else. It is no attempted slaughter, no accident, no misunderstanding and not a social reaction to being provoked by police presence, or a statement against social injustice. It is attempted killing, and thus attempted murder.

But it seems that as long as policemen wear body armour, this is an excuse why one can try all these things on them.

I do not even mention that shops and cars beignset on fire and the damage to public installations mostly do get ignored by law, and the damaged pirvate person owning these things usually are left alone. Do not count on the police or the law protecting your private property. Assuming that could be misunderstood as a provocation by those destroiying them.

It says a lot about how far the degeneration of our society has advanced that our laws and courts tolerate all this, in the name of social sensibility. I know Berlin a bit, I come from there, and lived there for ten years, and went there for visits several times since I left. From my study times I still have loose contact to some people working as street workers and social workers there. Look at all that precious, alternative culture, as they call it: buildings are rotting and look like ruins, legal owners get locked out, repairs get blocked, the whole thing may go down the drain and looks like a scenery from a zombie movie, slowly dying, not beign taken care of. And this is what raises the sensible concerns of caring sociologists and makes politicians demand "dialogue" with a bunch of anarchists and criminals. Why is it that so many street workers dealing with the scenes from within have little sympathy for all those highflying academic theories and babbling of those social academics? Why do quite some of them demand that the state should offer options and perspectives, yes, but also must give "klare Kante" where youth cults become criminal and break valid laws?
And when the legal owner of a house after many years finally gets permission by a court to call for a police operation to free it from those squatters, then he is the one being criminalsied in widespread public opinion, and provoking. Because quite many people expect him to simply accept being damaged. Damage to property is widely considered acceptable amongst the left and the anarcho-scene, if it is in the name of anti-americanism, anti-capitalism, anti-whatever, and representativres of organisations and poltical parties who in public not only express tolerance for this breaking of laws and the constitution (protection of private property is included in the Basic Law), declare themselves as an authority above the law and eventually even call for more violanc elike this in front of running cameras, then they must not fear to be arrested and held responsible for their violations (doing like this is a punishable offence in German law), but they simply get - tolerated.

Tolerance. Today it is a sign of healthy reason and noblesse to speak oiut against tolerance, because it has been perverted to self-denying, suicidal extremes on all levels. I spit out these days when hearing people starting to preach about tolerance. I say we have had enough of it, in many context, regarding so many issues. Intolerance is needed now. Intolerance towards what is not to be tolerated, and is doing so much damage to our historic heritage, our grown culture of freedoms and qualities that are unique and unsurpassed in all history. We stand by doing nothing while watching it getting destroyed, eaten up from a cancer that listens to many names: corruption, Islam, turbo-capitalism, EU, political correctness, social justice, eternal equality of all and everything. I am fed up with today's perverse tolerances.

We tolerate ourselves to death.

I sometimes get called an intolerant. What is meant as an attack or offence, I take as a compliment.

It translates into two important things:

to be clear and taking a clear position even if that means conflict and offering a profile others may start firing on;

and to differ between what is right and what is wrong, instead of dissolving thise difference endlessly in order to evade responsibility and to delete the need to risk conflict in defense of good things, relativising things until nothing means anything anymore and all qualitative differences get denied because all and everything and everybody now is "equal" and of equal worth.

Pfui bah. We have a saying in Germany: die dümmsten Kälber wählen sich ihre Metzger selber.
