Taking Precautions

NDR, public TV for the NW of Germany (around Hamburg)....told an interesting story this morning which I'd recommend a 'read'.

The chief of police for Hamburg, and the city council....came to a basic agreement on some barriers in the party-district of Hamburg, and started some bans of alcohol (starting at 10 PM).

To avoid the Stuttgart and Frankfurt troubles?  More or less.  Some of this is to send a message on the carnivorous social distancing. 

Area that they aimed this at? The Schanzen Quarter....the main party district where a lot of non-Hamburg folks come in and spend an entire evening drinking/partying.

Permanent?  I doubt it.  But it'll probably last through the summer and start to disappear as fall approaches.

one of the best history books ive ever read is called " march of the titans " . it references several times thruout history when ' empires ' brought non natives to their shores they lived to regret it .

i say this because i think its a book that you would enjoy . its a well written chronology of ten thousand years of history .

spoiler alert ; its been a constant bloodbath .
