In high school Pockinger the phone is no longer silent. Requests from everywhere come because of the parents' letter that the headmaster has sent on Monday - but less of concerned parents of diverse media, who want to know what is going on with the alleged dress code out of consideration for the Muslim refugees in coming. "There is none," clarifies Thalhammer. "There was never a dress code at this school, and there will be no future." Also in his letter was the speech not from regulations. "I have the duty of care for the children. That's why I wanted to inform all comprising what is going on at school and what do we need the gyms."
Granted, that's a Google translation and I'm sure it's not word for word. But enough to be clear.

But a little thing like accuracy never stops the right wing media.

I wonder how many German families would like to seek asylum here in the US.
The article doesn't say that they hired additional teachers.

The articles linked to didn't claim there is a dress code which is what you are pretending was stated. You could have saved yourself from making this faux pas.

You are correct. It says they increased the number of teachers on duty during breaks to reassure parents about extra security measures.

Or could he be trying to protect the children under his care from animals?

Amazing how leftists here will go out of their way to excuse/defend radical Islam.

They certainly won't do it with any other religion - in fact, quite the opposite.

Amazing how idiots will say something happened that did not, in fact, happen. No one defended radical Islam because there was no need to.

Germany is making a huge mistake...but then, they do have a penchant for doing that.
Funny, cause over 80% of pedophiles here in America are whites.
