    Interracial couples

    Interesting you mentioned it. I am in an interracial relationship. the other day we went to karstadt and decided to grab lunch at the restaurant on the top floor. While we were eating, I noticed almost 50% of the people in the restaurant were constantly staring at us with strong disapproval and hatred, not just peeking! Yes it was very creepy! Sure they were mostly older Germans, but they also brought up their kids with the same mind set, and it continues to be that way. and it was just one of the countless uncomfortable moments that occur on a daily basis in Germany.

    as for Sarrazin's book, it couldn't have become a bestseller if so many Germans didn't agree with him. Being racist doesn't always mean you'd beat up minorities and burn their home down. But that's the definition of racism for Germans, that's why they don't admit it.
