Just curious, Frame. Are you Serb by origin, with an American passport now, having been US-submariner, but now living in Germany?

Agree on your parts about immigrants, although fairness demands to note that not all immigrants are like that. Asians for example usually seem to try hard to fit in. Peoploe from Slavic countries, especially German-Russians, often show good will but lacking self-esteem and a certain shyness that makes itn hard for them to adapt into this social environment which often they perceive as much colder and unfriendly than the world they left behind. eurppeans living in Germany, usually adapt well, too. the very huge majority of problems is set up by people from Islamic nations, it simply is true. but even here one needs to see individuals. My dentist is Syrian, my cardiologist is Iranian, and both are not suspicious of being ideologists, have adapted to Germany in full, and speak the language fluent. On the other hand, third generation Turks - of whom friends of mankind usually would assume to have adapted even more than there parents (who are almost imune to integration) - tend towards stronger Turkish nationalism and islamic radicalisation than even their parents. and from my old job I remember the warehouse detectives (all of them from the ME, since their agency focussed on employing immigrants) saying that more than 50% of their clinetel are muslim juveniles, and that they are totally overrfepresented in crime statistics, and that no other ethnic group acts as aggressive and unimpressed towards them or the police. Juveniles crime statistics of the German police also shows juveniles from Muslim countries being in lead of the statistics. Most cases when I had troubles with customers in the store, these were People from the ME and Turkey, older people still not having learned my language (although having lived for many years in Germany, bviously), youngster behaving with verbal attacks on me or others - but both often behaving as if the place and the land was all theirs - and as if me or anybody else would owe them anything. and this is a kind of people I certainly do not like a bit, and do not tolerate to be here.
