LOL, this video is a sales tool for the alarm company. Ingrid's "investigation" involved questioning the sales people there.

So you're going to tell me there aren't a load of rapes being caused by the rapefugees in Germany and Sweden? Please read up on the sexual assaults in Cologne, Germany, and at the Schlossgrabenfest music festival.

I'm not saying there are not rapes occurring there or anywhere else. People rape. They rape women here in America and everywhere else. Germans rape their own women too. Fact is that we're talking about a very small sliver of the refugees who are doing it. But this is all out of the same playbook which is used to disparage and demonize immigrants here in the U.S.

Across Europe, the migrant crisis that has engulfed the Continent since the summer is provoking new levels of public anxiety after the New Year’s Eve sexual assaults in Cologne, Germany, where witnesses and the police described predatory gangs of mostly foreign men, including some refugees, groping and robbing young women. The Cologne police are also investigating allegations of rape.

While the police say the assaults in Cologne were carried out by hundreds of men, even that is a narrow sliver of the more than one million asylum seekers who entered Europe last year.

The assaults in Cologne were literally done in ONE NIGHT, by HUNDREDS OF MEN. Do you not see an issue with this?

You do know that Cologne is but one city in Germany, which is but one country of Western Europe, right? The number of refugees committing crimes is certainly in the thousands. What happened in Cologne is just an example of what's occurring on a daily basis in Western Europe right now. I certainly wouldn't want to subject my mother, sister, or loved ones to what's going on in those countries right now.

Also you keep bringing up that there are over one million refugees, but do you think that all one million of those refugees are in Cologne? Do you not understand how statistics work?

I hope California quickly realizes that gun-free zones/gun bans are useless after what just happened at UCLA.

I love this flawed logic. Reasonable people want mandatory waiting periods, better background checks, a federal database and a close to the gun show loophole. This obviously won't prevent all gun deaths but it could prevent a significant portion. Do you honestly believe the solution is for more people to carry weapons? How do you see that working? The reality is that most gun owners don't have the training to use a gun in a high-stress situation.

All studies on the subject show that more guns = more homicide. http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/hicrc/firearms-research/guns-and-death/

I'm all for better background checks and mandatory waiting periods. However, do you not realize that "gun free zones" are literally the dumbest thing on the planet? Do libtard cucks really think that labeling an area a gun free zone will erect an invisible barrier around the area and make it so armed assailants are unable to do any harm?

The reality is that many gun owners don't own a gun LEGALLY. If you can't grasp that concept, then I don't know what to tell you. A gun free zone, or a gun ban, will not help when these people with ILLEGALLY obtained guns are ready to use them for malicious acts.

Example: Chicago has very strict gun laws. How are things in South Side, Chicago?

How about Detroit?

[CharlesOakley]

I didn't say anything about gun free zones. I asked if you believe more people carrying guns is the solution to gun violence?

[knicksrbake]

I didn't say anything about gun free zones. I asked if you believe more people carrying guns is the solution to gun violence?

The whole point of the picture was to... I don't know... mock gun free zones? Anyway, gun bans are not going to help when a criminal who, guess what, DOESN'T FOLLOW THE LAW, decides to go on a mass murder spree with his ILLEGALLY obtained firearm. What can stop this person from claiming many lives? Could it be... a person who is armed? Wow...

I don't think people carrying MORE guns is the solution to gun violence, but I don't think gun bans are either. Again, more extensive background checks, waiting periods, etc., are all perfectly fine. Disarming the people and rendering them sitting ducks in mass murder sprees is utterly ridiculous.

You have the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. You have that right and they want to take it. Opponents of gun rights try to come up with scary sounding phrases like 'assault weapons', 'military-style weapons' and 'high capacity magazines ' to confuse people. Paris or San Bernardino ... you would have had bullets going in the opposite direction and believe me the carnage would not have been the same.

Yeah - it would have been worse.

But who needs statistics when they have their gut feeling on the subject? Untrained armed civilians in large quantities, what could go wrong?

Haha this is actually 3 Trump quotes strung together.

I'll tell you what... I like many of his policies, but at this point I'd vote for Trump if only because of how much I despise the entire SJW, "feminist", PC, hippie, soft, whiny, america-hating, white-hating, man-hating, "rape" culture that has polluted this country in recent years. Trump is the epitome of evil to them, and anything to piss them off further is cool with me . The blowback to their ilk has begun, and it's scaring the dye out of their hair. So bring on The Donald .

If you believe that a few happy customers negate a class-action suit then we can stop right there.

The idea was to get "buyers" in the door for a 90-minute seminar, where Trump U. sales associates used high-pressure tactics to try and get prospects to shell out as much as they could — $1,500 for a three-day event, then anywhere from $10,000 to $35,000 for bronze, silver and gold packages

Sworn testimony from a former Trump U. manager said he believed it was a "fraudulent scheme" that "preyed upon the elderly and uneducated to separate them from their money."

Honestly, you can like Trump and not support everything he does. This is a pretty clear case of being a predator. Also going after the ethnic background of the judge is in poor taste.
