I'm surprised I occupy your mind even when I'm neither anywhere to be seen, nor Germany or refugees are the topic or have been mentioned.
As for the wall. That was built. It's one one side of the area where the refugee housing area faces a bunch of resident houses. The official reason is noise protection (that's why it's only on one side of the grounds and nowhere near closed), but maybe those seven residents that went to court to get the wall built just didn't wanna see happy ball playing black kids every morning when looking out of the window. Who knows?
In general though I have to say the Free State of Bavaria and its citizens have done by far the best job out of all states in Germany in taking care of refugees. Massive noise protection wall or not, they deserve a lot of praise.

One thing has always bedazzled me about people that claim to hate the establishment, big business and whatnot however. I know you are a big fan of Farage and conservative politics, so maybe you can explain something to me.
Why do so many people that claim to hate the establishment keep going to the Tories and their splinter party UKIP, heck even sometimes strongly oppose social democrats? Conservatives stand more than anyone else for the things these people claim to hate so much. The conservaties are the people that went to posh expensive fee-paying schools (52% of conservatives in parliament, 17% Lib Dems, 14% Labour). They are the ones with a history in banking (25% of tories in parliament, 4% labour). They are the ones overwhelmingly having attended the little elite establishment Oxbridge colleges (45% tories in parliament, 14% labour, 13% lib dems).
So...what actually gives? All that anti-establishment talk is just to give the bullshit some nicer paint, isn't it?
