Police Officers In Berlin Had To Break Up Fight Between Supporters of Two Rival YouTubers (bbc.com)

More than 100 police officers were deployed to break up a mass brawl reportedly organized by two rival YouTube stars in Berlin. The BBC reports: The fight broke out on Thursday evening on Alexanderplatz square in the German capital, police said, adding that nine people were arrested. More than 400 people had gathered after two social media influencers reportedly urged their fans to join a face-off. As tensions escalated, a large melee involving around 50 people erupted. Officers used pepper spray and tear gas after attempts to disperse the crowds with loudspeakers failed. As police intervened, clashes spilled over in a nearby subway, where rocks picked up from railway lines were reportedly thrown. The YouTubers who reportedly started this mess are named "Thatsbekir" and "Bahar Al Amood," both of which denied that they were at fault for the brawl in social media posts.

    Depends on your definition of European. Both of the YouTubers are middle eastern in origin (a Turk and an Arab) so it looks like that whole "bring in 1 million refugees" plan has succeeded in enriching Germany with some foreign culture.

    Yeah, look at those groups.
    Did you somehow conveniently "overlook" all the Germans im there? (INB4 no true Scotsman)

    Your life must have truly failed, if you believe 90% of the immigrants aren't eating pork sausage, drinking beer and becoming German already and you truly believe they could threaten 80 million of one of the richest cultures on the planet.
    Lol, fuckin pussies. Nazis are nothing but fuckin pussies. One step removed from religious extremists with regard to pussification.
