  45. eines der probleme ist doch die kleinstaaterei, die in deutschland eine schier endlose tradition hat. die verantwortung fuer gesetze tragen hierzulande oft nicht diejenigen, die sie gemacht haben. deswegen halte ich es hier ja auch fuer ein wahlkampfmanoever, wenn eine bezirkspolitikerin sich in ihrer freizeit den gesetzen des senats widersetzt. solange es sich um einen neonaziaufmarsch in karlshorst und friedrichsfelde handelt, ziehe ich vor dem couragiertem auftreten der buergermeisterin meinen hut. in diesem falle aber nicht!

  57. You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it! Dareen Bran Englebert
