Attacks on native politicians: “We are in the firing line” | EUROtoday

I anticipated an assault just like the one on Matthias Ecke in Dresden. What occurred to him is aimed toward all of us. I've been campaigning for my celebration for 15 years, and now I'm out and about nearly on daily basis throughout the election marketing campaign. I haven't been attacked bodily but, however I’ve been attacked verbally. Asshole, soiled pig, warmonger – I hear issues like that nearly on daily basis. Once somebody pointed a broomstick at me and pretended to shoot me.

Many individuals right here in Gera who would truly wish to get entangled politically don't dare. Anyone who runs for town council may have their deal with revealed within the official gazette, and many individuals don't need that for concern of assaults.
