Foreigners Dominate In Violent Criminal Offenses On German Public Transport
The issue of crime on public transport in Germany is a major topic, as the left wants more people taking public transport while at the same time promoting open borders, which makes public transport more and more dangerous. The data has shown for years that migrants are sexually assaulting women, partaking in knife attacks, and generally making public transport hell for Germans, and the latest data from the southern state of Baden-Württemberg only highlights this trend.
There, a recent inquiry by the Alternative for Germany (AfD) to the Ministry of the Interior, Digitalization, and Municipalities reveals a concerning picture of safety on public transport in Baden-Württemberg.
In 2024, Baden-Württemberg's public transport system saw a total of 30,950 individuals identified as suspects for various crimes, averaging about 85 suspects per day. It is important to note that this figure does not include violations for immigration offenses, which can only be committed by foreigners, of which there were an additional 20,339 violations of immigration law, bringing the total recorded incidents in public transport to 51,289.

Germany Sets Record For Naturalizations In 2024, Syrians And Turks Top The Charts
In Germany in 2024, a record number of foreigners were naturalized, with Syrians and Turks gaining citizenship at the highest rate when all nations are factored. The data from 13 German states shows that 249,901 people were given German citizenship, which is more than the population of Chemnitz. However, this data does not include all German states, with results from Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Schleswig-Holstein still pending. Syrians were in first place. For example, in the most populous state, North Rhine-Westphalia, 24,349 Syrians received German citizenship. 🇩🇪 He received German citizenship, but it doesn't sound like he considers himself German.❓"Are you both German now?"🔺"What does German mean? Yeah, we have a German passport."And serving in the military? Not a chance. — Remix News & Views (@RMXnews) June 2, 2025 Turks came in second place and saw a big jump over 2023. In North Rhine-Westphalia, the number of Turks gaining German citizenship jumped 83 percent in 2024 compared to the previous year. Some other outsized growth numbers were seen in other German states. For example, Russians receiving German citizenship jumped 623 percent in the state of Baden-Württemberg. PM Viktor Orbán: 🇭🇺🇩🇪 "Now, Germany is no longer Germany. It's a colorful, changed multicultural world, where migrants coming in are no longer guests in this country… They are not here as guests of the native Germans, but in their own right. It is now their country, too." — Remix News & Views (@RMXnews) June 25, 2024 During the previous government, the rules for citizenship were relaxed substantially in 2024, including the wait time to receive citizenship in some cases. However, according to Welt, this may have not played such a large role in the uptick in naturalizations, as in many states, those seeking citizenship have already been in Germany for many years. In Baden-Württemberg, the average stay of residence for new citizens was 14.1 years. In some federal states, cases of people receiving accelerated naturalization procedures were not even registered in even a single case. 🇩🇪 NEW: "Uncontrolled immigration" fueled the AfD's "shock" victory in the fact, immigration is now the TOP issue for Germans, according to political analysts. — Remix News & Views (@RMXnews) September 3, 2024 This citizenship law provision, which critics labeled 'turbo naturalizations,' allowed foreigners to receive citizenship after three or four years if they showed outstanding efforts to integrate. However, the new government is seeking to abolish this rule, even if it is not entirely clear if the coalition can work out an agreement. One aspect of the new law that may have provided an outsized incentive for many long-time German residents to seek out citizenship was relaxation of dual citizenship rules. Previously, new German citizens would have to give up their old passports, but the new law changed this.

"We Must Not Hesitate" – German Justice Minister Open To AfD Ban
Federal Justice Minister Stefanie Hubig, of the left-wing Social Democrats (SPD), is keeping the hope for a ban on the Alternative for Germany (AfD) alive, saying a ban should still be on the table. She told German newspaper Rheinische Post a ban should not be 'dismissed for political reasons alone.' She also brushed away concerns that the AfD could 'once again portray itself as a victim' if ban proceedings are initiated. Most of the main German parties have advocated for an AfD ban, including many top politicians from the SPD. However, a vote must first pass in the German parliament, the Bundestag, and then be approved by the Bundesrat, which is represented by the 16 German states. From there, it would need to go to the top German court, the Constitutional Court, which could still reject such a ban as unconstitutional — a risk many opposed to a ban have cited for not moving forward with such a proposal. Hubig acknowledges that the legal hurdles remain high. A ban of the largest opposition party in the country, and one that has reached first place in some polls, would potentially end German democracy, but this is not deterring many from the German political establishment. Hubig said that it must be examined whether the AfD 'is systematically and actively opposing the free democratic order, and whether this can be proven.' She said that if such a finding is determined, the government is obligated to take action. 'Then we must not hesitate,' she said, saying that the Basic Law, the German constitution, is her 'compass.' She also claimed in the same interview that legal action against the AfD should not replace political debate. 'Because many people who vote for this party are not right-wing extremists. As democratic parties, we want to regain their trust,' she claimed, although, her openness to a ban appears to contradict this view. Even if a ban is voted on, it would likely still take years for the case to be decided by the Constitutional Court. Perhaps even more important is that German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has rejected such a ban, and without his Christian Democrats (CDU), there is no chance for such a ban at the moment. Merz not only ruled out a ban, but he used extraordinarily harsh language against the measure despite earlier rumors that he was receptive to such a ban. 'Working 'aggressively and militantly' against the free democratic basic order must be proven. And the burden of proof lies solely with the state. That is a classic task of the executive branch. And I have always internally resisted initiating ban proceedings from within the Bundestag. That smacks too much of political competition elimination to me,' he warned. For now, Merz holds most of the power in regard to an AfD ban, although his new coalition partners, the SPD, have hinted they would not accept a coalition agreement if a move towards a ban is not initiated. It remains unclear how far the SPD will go to get what they want regarding the AfD. Source Zero Hedge
