Well, I can't blame them. There was another one today by an axe wielding Afghan asylum seeker in Germany.

The travel company's comment above is ... so true ...

They're hitting trains, fireworks shows, concerts, cafes....yep, just the places tourists tend to go. I've been on a personal Euro boycott ever since Merkel opened the borders, in several cases to the very people who did the attacks.

Merkel caused this mess and Hilary wants to do the same for America. I would no travel to either place ever again.

I don't like her. But I also don't know what you're talking about. Hilary has proposed no changes to immigration that I'm aware of. I doubt immigration policy has changed much in the States the way it has in some European countries. While I'm sympathetic to the anger over clear excesses in Europe, I also think it's ridiculous to avoid Europe generally for fear of terrorism. The chance is laughable. You probably have a better chance of getting a concussion from a bicycle accident in Kyoto.
