#2 Oh, it wasn't one German. It was the whole country. They all shook their heads in disbelief and laughed at us. Laughed.

Oh, that burned. That's something we will neither forget nor forgive. We'll remember how our "friends" in Europe laughed at us when we told them to take their security seriously.

And I get it, right? It was supremely satisfying to tell the Americans to fuck off. Especially Trump. If there's one thing Europeans do well, it's self-righteousness and self-satisfaction. After all, they were living after the end of history. They had the idiot Americans to pay for their defense and Nordstream 2 from Russia to pay for their industry. What could possibly go wrong?

Maybe the clever Germans can figure out a way to heat their houses this winter with their smug sense of satisfaction. They've certainly got a surplus of it.

/\ Oh, it wasn't one German. It was the whole country.

Without questions, a stunningly beautiful country.

#7 More than three million Turks live in Germany, and mosques are more active than churches.

#8 Maybe because it would be a 3 year jail term for turning on the PA system?

Has anyone tried getting Santa Claus downtown, thumping him, and hauling him off to prison?

#9 They all shook their heads in disbelief and laughed at us. Laughed.

That was no laugh. They were sneering.

#10 Re #2 concerning unforgiveness...

For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Matthew 6:14-15.

#11 So I guess when the German Energy Director when asked about this, said that business can close and not go out of business because of the lack of revenue; hibernate if you will. Perhaps EC can correct or elaborate?

Have we not literally just spent 2 years proving that wrong?
