Funny how two people can have radically different experiences. I have lived 10 years in northern Germany as an immigrant from a poor eastern European country, never experienced anything other than kindness and openness. And yes, many of my compatriots are renowned for crime in Western Europe, so my adoptive country would have had real reasons to be xenophobic towards me. If anything, Germany is a bit too open, as 2015 and the ensuing problems proved.
