My school friend from long ago who still resides in Berlin told me over the phone the other day when asked if she will go to a Christmas market said "no" because they are scared to be among a crowd.  That is what things have come to.  Angela Merkel has these dead people on her soul when letting thousand upon thousand of
refugees in with very poor vetting.  Her famous quote: "we will make it" (wir schaffen es)" must haunt her.
