These same selfish people are the people who are going to harass women or join a group like ISIS.

Now compound that with the way Germany has been actually dealing with it's refugee crisis. The response from Germany in setting up housing and jobs has been almost non-existent. So you've got a situation with a bunch of young men with nothing to do but start trouble. If you took large groups of young men from any race/religion, you'd see the same result. Idle hands.

I just watched a great Vice bit on how Germany has been using these vouchers to house people. Essentially each voucher is worth $40 and everyone who doesn't have permanent housing gets one everyday. The vouchers are supposed to pay for hostels. So what the hostel owners have been doing is cramming as many people as possible into a room, and then hiding everything when the inspectors come by. They then redeem the vouchers. Some are making millions.

Quite frankly, I'm not sure what Germany expected. That hundreds of thousands of people would just spontaneously find jobs and housing? Europe already had a problem with a growing extremist right wing in response to the EU. Now were likely to see them take their anger out on innocent refugees. This is all the result of short sighted politicians attempting to drum up support by making decisions without exploring the long term consequences.
Yet not one of these points justifies sexual assault on women.

It's almost as if you are blaming Germany for not creating a bunch of jobs. The fact they opened their borders to these people is already a life changing gift. What's the answer in your eyes? Lay off a bunch of German citizens so people who have contributed exactly zero to the country over the course of history have something to keep them from robbing and raping their citizens?
