I'm guessing the herrenvolk are getting sick of the refugee situation.....

[Mamyalynne]

Sick covers it, yes.

[Jackdaw33]

Not very nice but a taste of things to come,even to our shores.

[Jackdaw33]

I noticed that. Didn't quite make sense to me.

[mikey4444]

Again, Mamy has it right here....sick is the correct word.

[lindapalmara]

I really think Merkels days are numbered. Scenes like this will become commonplace unfortunately.

[youngmafbog]

Thats right Mammy/Mickey bury your heads in the sand.

Not nice I know, but people like you guys need to understand why this is happening, ie your right-on lefist views that the majority are getting sick of.

[naomi24]

I think it should be made clear that the building was empty, so nothing 'sick' about it really.. I imagine the cheering simply indicated opposition to the prospect of this shelter being built in the locals' back yard.

[mikey4444]

Naomi.....supporting people who try to stop firefighters doing their job now are you ?

[Jackdaw33]

She did NOT say that!

[naomi24]

Mikey, not at all. Simply attempting to bring some perspective to the hysterical reaction that this is 'sick'. No one died.

[TWR]

More to follow in my opinion, it's about time people realised this migration is getting out of hand.

[mikey4444]

Naomi...get off the fence. When these idiots were trying to stop the firemen from doing their job, it was not clear that the building was empty. According to the premier of Saxony, Stanislaw Tillich, these people are "criminals".

Its also not clear how the fire started in the first place, but arson is suspected.

I look forward to you condemning idiots like this.

[naomi24]

Mikey, I'm not on the fence but I do understand why people don't want such shelters in their area. The project was a work in progress, the incident occurred in the middle of the night, so I think it's pretty safe to assume that the building was unoccupied. As I said, a bit of perspective on the hysteria.

Not clear how the fire started...

Arson is suspected....

Bit premature to be asking for condemnation from Naomi isn't it?

[Old_Geezer]

Unfortunate. Sad. But hardly surprising.

Allow mass migration into your country and citizens will become demoralised and increasingly angry at what is being imposed on them. At some point a catastrophic reaction will occur somewhere.

It's the government's job to avoid this sort of situation, not ensure it.

And who can trust Merkel who paved the way for a million asylum applications?

[viv41]

Good points from Naomi, as usual.

Completely agree with everything you say, I suppose there would have been no outcry from the lefties if that building had been the headquarters of Pegida.

[agchristie]

Mikey, you weren't at all bothered about historical sites ruined by ISIS. They could be rebuilt you said!!

Why be so worried about a building under development intended for migrants going up in flames??
