Sixty percent of Germans want more video surveillance in public spaces, according to a new YouGov poll published on Sunday. The public call comes in the wake of the Berlin Christmas market attack.

Appearing to support government plans to change the law to allow increased video surveillance, 73 percent of Germans polled supported the idea of having larger police forces.

The YouGov survey for the German news agency dpa was carried out days after Tunisian national Anis Amri plowed a truck into a Christmas market, killing 12 people and wounding nearly 50 others. Amri, who was the prime suspect, was shot dead after fleeing to Italy. […]

The draft law will mean a partial roll-back of Germany’s strict privacy laws.

In response, Federal Interior Minister Thomas De Maizière (CDU) called on Berlin’s regional assembly to “rethink” its attitude to video cameras “urgently.” …

Next March, the first joint exercise of the Bundeswehr and the police will take place. …
Indeed so. One beneficial crisis will lead to another and another.

Great. So the police, who won’t be able to stop the rapes of German women be “refugees”, will now be able to watch it after the crime has occurred. Why not deport, or kill the refugees. Then there would be no need for video surveilance, and German women wouldn’t be raped. Sorry, I just used common sense. Can’t have any of that now, can we?

They don’t need cameras. They need profiling.

Find a bunch of box cars. Load them up with mooselimbs and lock the doors. Send them to Turkey. If some of them make it there, fine, unload, then repeat until the problem is solved.

This yougov poll is idiotic. Of course they prefer more security after the country has been flooded with Barbarians

More police? Really? Police get there after casualties have already occurred. Germany and USA need universal open and concealed carry rights.
