How is the Köln incident &quot;not an immigration issue&quot;?<p>The evidence clearly shows that many of the perpetrators were not from Germany.<p>It surely is an immigration issue.<p>The rise in anti-immigrant sentiment throughout Europe is because Köln isn&#x27;t an isolated case.<p>Köln-type incidents happen on a daily basis, but typically on a much smaller scale.<p>These small-scale incidents, which range from muggings to assaults to burglary to murder, combined with larger-scale incidents like Köln and Paris, put Europeans in a bad position.<p>Of course these Europeans will begin to question their past generosity!<p>Why should these Europeans continue to offer these foreigners so much kindness, aid and opportunity, only to have the foreigners commit various crimes against these Europeans?<p>Stross throws around terms like &quot;racist clowns&quot;, &quot;xenophobia&quot;, and &quot;bigotry&quot;, yet that&#x27;s exactly what we haven&#x27;t seen from Europeans for so many decades now.<p>Europeans have been more than welcoming, and offered unselfish charity to so many foreigners.<p>Yet despite showing so much good will and kindness, Europeans have come to suffer as a result of their efforts to help others.<p>Any backlash that the foreigners face in Europe is because of how disgracefully so many of these foreigners have treated Europeans.
