Yeah, I am already using öffi, but as far as I know, they don't offer a visual map service. And sometimes, it feels easier to just open up Gmaps to check all of the available connections. Especially, because Öffi doesn't offer the option to check the schedule of a certain train, like Maps does.

Tolerance would indicate that we do nothing about the larger pattern. Honour killings are on one hand part of a larger patriarchal culture that is prevalent in most of the world, on the other hand, they are much more common in groups practicing fundamental variations of Islam. Pointing that out isn't Islamophobia. Blaming each and every Muslim for this would be. If we persecute each murder committed by policemen, but do nothing against the larger pattern, then we tolerate police violence.

If we would not persecute them or give them lighter sentences, we do not only tolerate them, we endorse them.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romani_people They are very explicitly an ethnic group associated with a lifestyle. Not just a lifestyle.

Dafür muss man erstmal die Obduktion abwarten. Wenn die Person aus 4 Metern von vorne erschossen wurde, dann lag da eher eine Bedrohungssituation vor. Wenn die tödliche Wunde im Rücken ist, dann haben wir ja ganz eindeutig einen Fall von Polizeigewalt.

They are an ethnicity. To the extent that you can trace Romaní ancestry in people. They have multiple related languages across Europe. This isn't a lifestyle, it's an ethnicity.

Never ask 2westerneurope4u what they think about Sinti and Roma or eastern Europeans.

Thanks!

Well to address the second paragraph: Most polls show a plurality to want to maintain the Status Quo: de facto Independence, dealing with both the Mainland and the US. I would not go so far as to call that "ready for unification".

Noooo, don't be nuanced, everything is either black or white! At least this way my head doesn't hurt :(

No doubt that the elites don't want reunification, but it seems like the population doesn't want it either. I couldn't find any poll that had more than 11-15% of people in favor of reunification.

Beans turn me into a living human rights violation. Give me a can of beans and I will make the trenches of Belgium look like a fucking rose garden compared to this room.
