They were attacked, spat on, insulted, threatened or pushed,\u201d said Recknagel, adding that female employees are being slapped, kicked, spat at and threatened with being stabbed by the \u2018refugees\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe worst case was that a train attendant was threatened with a knife,\u201d said Recknagel, adding that another was physically attacked from behind and \u201cthe air was knocked out of her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The union boss said that one stretch of the network was particularly bad, specifically the one frequented by Syrian, Afghan, and Turkish migrants from the local asylum center.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI drive the Erfurt-Suhl route every day,\u201d said Recknagel. \u201cAnd unfortunately, I have to say it like this: It is mostly young men from the initial reception center who misbehave completely on our trains. They always travel in groups and feel strong together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Instead of intervening when the migrants engage in violent or threatening behavior towards other passengers, train staff look the other way or even run and hide in locked compartments to avoid becoming the next victim.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur people are afraid, very afraid. We have employees who say: If these groups are on the train, then I won\u2019t check tickets. Then, they say they\u2019ll stay at the front with the train driver or lock themselves in their cabin until they get to a safe station and they get out,\u201d said Recknagel.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/amPo2qhBdH4?si=_MqAP0IaW7GN4Rfj\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<p>She noted that nothing ever happens to the migrants who behave in such a manner, with the police largely powerless to step in.<\/p>\n<p>A four page letter sent to Thuringia Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow (Left Party) complains that female workers have been subjected to \u201csexist insults and spit on in a disgusting manner,\u201d which includes migrants flashing their genitals.<\/p>\n<p>The letter notes that the chaos is almost entirely the responsibility of \u201cpeople with a migration background,\u201d including one incident where rival migrants fought a running battle, leaving an entire train compartment covered in blood.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur colleague had to continue the journey to the Suhl train station in fear of death and with a railcar that was heavily contaminated with human blood,\u201d states the letter. \u201cWe don\u2019t need to talk at this point about the psychological consequences for our still very young colleague and the passengers, given the scenes that could have come from a civil war zone!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The letter goes on to vent fury about how Germans are being told to embrace \u201ctolerance towards migrants\u201d while being violently attacked by migrants.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow can you expect citizens of this country to be open to the refugee policy that is being practiced when it happens \u2014 practically every day, and not just on public transport! \u2014 that we have to witness such violence, brutalization and absolute contempt for our laws and society?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Alternative for Germany (AfD), the country\u2019s leading anti-mass migration party which the establishment is trying to ban, responded to the story by asserting, \u201cThe railway and transport union in Thuringia is sounding the alarm: Train attendants and railway employees are regularly attacked, spat on, insulted, threatened or beaten.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As we recently <a href=\"https:\/\/modernity.news\/2024\/05\/08\/foreign-migrants-account-for-nearly-6-in-10-violent-crime-suspects-in-germany\/\">highlighted<\/a>, foreign migrant suspects are responsible for nearly 6 in 10 violent crimes in Germany according to new figures released by the federal government.<\/p>\n<p>Despite comprising roughly 14.6 per cent of the population, foreign migrants were responsible for 58.5 per cent of all violent crimes.<\/p>\n<p><em>Your support is crucial in helping us defeat mass censorship.
