New rule: to comment negatively about immigrants, you have to first disclose why your own family members immigrated to the US seeking a better life, and why people facing much worse shouldn’t have the same opportunity.

Describing Little Italy as a parallel society ("Parallelgesellschaft" in Germany) would have made her think a little more, I guess. On the other hand I try to work out how the antisemitic violence of Arabic migrants relates to these former times. Will it simply go away with Americanisation?
This specific wave of violence at universities? I don't think so. In Germany I would even more say that the violent threat to Jews in the streets rarely comes from white Nazis but from Muslim migrants especially Arabs. This ignorance towards this special problem doesn't help.
1) The violence mainly came from the cops, from what I saw.
2) Those protests at colleges were all from Muslim or Arab immigrants? Really??
It's not ignorance. Most hate crimes in the US are perpetrated by white supremacists. Not from immigrants.
I make a difference what kind of hate crime it is. Getting evil letters, seeing graffitti or dumb tweets can be sickening, yes, but having to cope with aggressive behaviour towards you on the street or indeed direct violence has different quality. German Jews are more afraid of migrant quarters.
I guess they would like not to be beaten up or attacked. If these attacks come main from one group and you say that, does that make you a racist? And if you deny something that others describe as their own observation, what are you then?
You sound like every white racist that thinks that every Black person is a violent predator
Sure seems like you're just stereotyping a whole ethnic group for the actions of a handful
Which, you're German, not like this is a new thing for y'all
You sound like you have eaten all the wisdom of the world and nothing can change you. Everything you see is right, what other people see is a false observation or prejudice. I didn't say anything about all Arabs but that most of the violence that Jews in Germany experience on the street comes from >
Arab people. If you cannot get these two things together then it's your problem, not mine.
And speaking of generalisation you put another one out about German people, nearly 80 years after the war, 30 years after reunification, you want to teach me about the country I live in?
