Refugee Crisis: Two Germanys

Watching the events unfolding each day with respect to the refugees in Germany it is clear that Saxony is not Germany and the majority of Germans are repelled by the neo-Nazi hate and violence that has erupted over the refugees.

In fact it is not fair to the people of Saxony to describe the Free State as a Nazi swamp. There are plenty of people in Sachsen who sympathize with the plight of these desperate people seeking a  future for their families.

The two Germanys were very much on display this past Thursday when Chancellor Angela Merkel (belatedly) visited Heidenau.

On the one hand there were the neo-Nazi demonstrators, such as this woman who can be heard on a YouTube video screaming "Fotze, Fotze, Fotze!" over and over at the chancellor:

...and then there were the decent people who joined with the refugees in a welcoming party:

Two Germanys.  Let's hope the hateful minority is shamed to silence.

Maybe most people aren't neo-Nazis or "the decent [i.e., bien-pensants] people" but just decent, ordinary people living their lives.

The only good part I found was some decent people being there to welcome the refugees...

Refugees should always be accepted and welcomed.

Two schools of thoughts, one is positive, the other one is negative. Hope and pray - positive will always prevail.
