In a move that endangers a major sector of German agriculture, there is an effort to ban pork sausages from public cafeterias in schools, hospitals, nurseries, and elsewhere. Judged as a portion of tax revenue, pork agriculture accounts for nearly a fifth of the local economy in Germanys Schleswig-Holstein region. Pork sausages are at the very heart of Germanys traditional cuisine. Yet the decisions have been made in many parts of Germany to simply remove pork from public life.
There is some opposition to the move to strip pork sausages from Germany.
The protection of minorities including for religious reasons must not mean that the majority is overruled in their free decision by ill-conceived consideration, said [parliamentarian Daniel] Guenther, as quoted by Deutsche Welle, arguing that tolerance must mean the appreciation and sufferance of other food cultures and lifestyles.
In the face of similar pressures, a city in Denmark recently passed a law that mandated pork be on the menu in public spaces. The Danish government says that this is to protect its traditional culture, including its food culture. Muslim advocates say that it is to try to limit Islamic immigration to the city by creating a hostile environment.
The moves to get pork removed from the menus of public cafeterias are either a case of self-censorship by Germans, or a case of civilizational jihad. If they are self-censorship by German institutions, they may still be motivated by advice from branches of the Muslim Brotherhood received at the highest levels of the German government. In either case, the move serves the purposes of civilization jihad: it prepares the German people to submit to Islam. They are becoming conditioned to living under sharia law in this case, to accepting the absence of pork from their menus, even though it means disposing of aspects of their traditional culture that they may quite value.
For some reason, no one describes this as creating a hostile environment for Germans or Danes. When someone moves to create a public space in which core expressions of your traditional culture are banned as offensive, that someone has engaged in a hostile act. If a Western government were to go to an Islamic country and ban some traditional aspect of the culture, we would describe it as imperialism or for those most committed to the idea that this is wrongful behavior cultural genocide.
For some reason, when our own government does it to us, we accept it as justice. Must our traditional cultures be dissolved to make way for Islam?
My first thoughts after seeing the headline.....were.....oh, it’s the muslims.
No more Currywurst?
They have to have lost their ever loving minds!

Muslim group says Germany must ban alcohol if they want to prevent further sex attacks
January 23, 2016 9:28 am By Robert Spencer 131 Comments
The problem with this argument is that alcohol has been in Germany for a long, long time, and there was never a mass of rapes and sex assaults as there was in Cologne and other German cities on New Years Eve. The cause of the rapes and sex assaults was the Islamic attitude toward Infidel women that they can be taken and used sexually (cf. Quran 4:3, 4:24, 23:1-6, 33:50, 70:30). But no one, least of all the German authorities, wants to face that fact.
Germans must ban ALCOHOL if they want to prevent further sex attacks and help North Africans integrate, says Muslim group, by Darren Boyle, MailOnline, January 22, 2016 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Germany needs to ban alcohol if it wants to prevent further sexual violence and to help North African migrants integrate into society, a Muslim pressure group has claimed.
The group complained that the female victims had brought the unwanted attention to themselves by dressing in a manner that North African men were not accustomed to.
As a consequence of the attacks, they urged the German government to introduce a ban across the country on the consumption of alcohol.
The group also blamed women for getting attacked by inciting the young men.

I might not like sauerkraut, but this kind of stuff makes me want to regain a taste for it.
On one hand, I’m appalled by the German cravenness; on the other, I’m fascinated to see just how far they’ll abase themselves.
Fifteen is my limit on schnitzengruben.
I believe the world would be a more peaceful place if everyone occasional ate pork, ham, and bacon. Today we had bacon for breakfast with pancakes and this evening some of the best pork chops I’ve made in a while for dinner. Pork tastes great and is calming to the soul.
“Jews dont behead people for their eating habits...”
Instead of banning pork they should ban people whose culture and religious ideology says that it okay to behead other people.
When I was in Iraq I aggressively ate bacon with a special resolve.
Recent articles suggest Hitler had no balls. What of the rest of the German people?
The country of sausage banning sausage?? What stupid country.
It’s already started in the US as well but it is disguised. Recent calls to ban barbecue in liberal cities like Austin, TX ( no doubt at the behest of their secret fat cat OPEC donors ) and “studies” that called pork products carcinogenic are how they will get their foot in the door in the US. If they can claim pork is cancerous, then second-hand smelling of pork, the odor of it, must be banned to protect us.
They’ll start the big push on this after the next elections. Now’s the time to sell your Hormel stock.
A German friend, in Germany, swore shortly before Octoberfest (when the invaders wanted to ban Octoberfest), that there was no way the oh so intelligent hard working diversified nice immigrants would NEVER change what makes Germany Germany.
I’ve been able to get pork centerloin chops for under $3/lb pretty reliably. That’s been a refuge, although it’s such a tasty cut that it hasn’t felt like much of a sacrifice.
Thank you. He was a good puppy for sure. My joy in life.
with nukes! the immigrate and outbreed strategy that islam is using to secure dominance over and control of Europe by the latter part of the 21st century will deliver all of the state of the art weaponry that Europe has at its disposal as well.
Too logical /s
Uhhhhhh, if you don’t want pork....don’t buy it.
