I know exactly why the wall fell, I was in there in late 80s and 90s and made numerous trips into East Germany.
Turns out these protests did nothing to stop the current Govt from changing the constitution and introduce new laws permitting curfews etc. Law was passed today.
There has been a change in atmosphere recently and I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens after Merkel. On local social media and MSM is nothing but leftist rhetoric. Anyone questioning that is immediately pounced upon and labelled as right wing or Nazi.
Your wife will know exactly what the consequences are of where we're heading right now.
They're chanting: "Join us!" to the police.
I have disdain more and more for the police every day. They are loyal to their masters for their pensions.
Yea!!!! Go Germany! Stop the tyranny! WWG1WGA
Germany is lost
I hope not but you are probably right.
I hope not too, but after this law is passed, there will be protestors, but they will soon be locked up. It’s terrible and scary
They'll simply associate the demos with right wing extremists groups as usual.
Germans know how to protest.
How do you think the wall fell in the first place.

My wife is from East Germany and lived behind the wall.
Just because they passed a law today doesn’t mean massive protests can’t be successful.
