No offense, but I’d say your claim of ‘not uncommon’ is rather inaccurate, and with an additional ‘r’ at the end, that would be even fewer people. Honestly, in all my life I’ve neither met nor heard of someone named either variant. (Though for the first one, a quick wikipedia search brings up two apparently-notable-enough people, a quick general search suggests overall it’s less than 500 out of the 84 million Germans. No result for the r-variant, and one news story about a guy struggling with his name being the German equivalent.)

I suppose “Niggemann” or similar would be more common, but also not terribly so, from my experience.

A lot of other aspects aside, “giving him back” (which is weirdly objectifying of migrants, as if people were the property of any nation) could in many cases easily equate to issuing a death sentence. For me, that is reason enough - but I suppose your overall view on the right to live might differ.

I am reminded of when, back in school, I considered an exchange year in the US. Exchange agencies hosted a bunch of info/prep events for potential exchangees, often with former participants sharing their experiences.

Probably the most unsettling piece of advice was to expect seemingly absurd questions from students there. Examples we were given included whether we have fridges here, or electricity in general, or if Hitler’s still around. (To clarify, this was late 2000s, I’m from Central Europe - hence Hitler - and those students would’ve been about 16.)

I also learned that “American History” is a complete, stand-alone high school subject and, from what I understood, isn’t necessarily backed up by a “General History”-type class, so that made the idea of internet-era teens asking such things somewhat more conceivable.

Going on that, I really hope you get an answer on the phone question. On the off chance that they are not just trolling, that would be some fascinating insight.

Also, obligatory-but-involuntary WhatsApp sucks so much!

(edit because formatting is hard)

I think you missed the point there, they were talking about all men. If deportation prevents rape, that should, by your logic, endorse deporting any and all rapists. Also let’s throw in there that rapists come in all genders, so basically prevention through group deportation would leave us with a pretty empty country. (And who would take us in, then, as that would make us migrants ourselves?)

Edit: I am unsure if I interpreted your comment as intended - with “only the one who do something wrong”, were you refering to the sentenced migrants, or the sentenced men in general?
