"Bbbbut... German men rove in packs of 1000 and sexually assault women at the train station too!"
Ashton Kutcher should start a version of "Punk'd" in Germany and Sweden and the catch phrase after every single one of these incidents should be, "You've just been culturally enriched!"

BERLIN — German police has described a series of sexual assaults against women in Cologne on New Year's Eve as "a completely new dimension of crime."
Officers received numerous complaints from women who said they had been assaulted around Cologne's main train station next to the western German city's famous cathedral on the night from Thursday to Friday.
Cologne police chief Wolfgang Albers says witnesses described the assaults as coming from a group of up to 1,000 men whose appearance indicated they were of "Arab or North African origin."
Some 60 criminal complaints have so far been filed, including one allegation of rape.
German news agency dpa quoted Albers telling reporters on Monday that it was "an intolerable situation that such crimes are committed in the middle of the city."
Where are the hooligans when you need them, the demonstration in the video is the same place the assaults took place, I have been there before, the train station is a 5 minute walk from the Kölner Dom.
It's a shame what is happening in Germany, I spent 2 summers in Düsseldorf as a teenager and walked the streets late at night and never once was in danger or felt threatened but that was in 1979 and 1980.
It used to be. Now many parts are "no go" zones after dark, I have many friends over there who can confirm, regardless of what HuffPo says from behind their desks in San Francisco. Very sad.
