Europe's conservative, anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim tide is rising and spreading at an accelerating pace from nation to nation.
First it was the unprecedented ascent and surge in the polls of France's National Front, whose Marine Le Pen has become the leading contender in next year's presidential elections; then there was Austria whose Freedom Party swept the competition in last weekend's first round of the local presidential elections; then over the weekend we learned that Germany's brand new (less than three years old) Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has not only adopted an "Anti-Islam manifesto", stating that "Muslims are no longer welcome in Germany", but is now Germany's third strongest party.
To be sure, not everyone was delighted by the AfD's rapid move higher in the polls.
One such place is Germany's Frankfurter Allgemeine, which just came out with a cover story to "reveal" how uncharacteristically conservative the AfD is, titled "How the AfD wants to live", with a picture showing a retro family with dog and 3 kids. Oh, and a gun.
Funny, I see nothing wrong with the first picture at all.
Xenophobia!/s
Good for them.
.
Exactly, but .......don’t you know “All Cultures are EQUAL”.
I know this cover is supposed to horrify Germans, but the return of some human normalcy looks like a good sign to this American.
Very good.
“I know this cover is supposed to horrify Germans,”
I think it backfired on the arrogant press Mandarins.
A straight white Christian family who has the nerve to want to protect themselves against the cultural disaster Leftists have created? Oh, the horror.
A lot of Germans will realize that cover depicts exactly what they want to protect. Looks perfect to me.
I would run on a platform of inviting the Muslims and leftists to leave before hunting season starts.

Looks to be an over/under shotgun.
Destroy islam.
Where are the other three wives? I only see two.
That is freaking excellent.
Extremely effective at close range. Can make muzzieburger out of these invader rapists.
When I first saw the picture I thought it was a real magazine cover by the AFD Group. Looks like a nice family - and a nearly ideal typical family for Germany.
If the father was also holding a Bible, the picture would have been better - but I believe most of Western Europe is a lost cause in that regards.
“Funny, I see nothing wrong with the first picture at all.”
That’s what I was thinking, looks good to me.
I have an old Smith & Wesson 916A riot gun. Holds 8 rounds of 12 gauge pump gun fun. When you let a buddy fire it, stick a 3” magnum in the magazine. Hilarity ensues, just make sure it’s the LAST round fired... [It’s a country boy thang, even though I’m a city boy out here in the boonies havin’ a great time!]
