IT DIDN'T TAKE LONG – AT 9:05 A.M. ET:  One great fear in Europe is that the refugees pouring in from the Mideast will try to change European culture.  It's happening already.  From the American Mirror: 

It was only a matter of time before the “refugees” pouring into Europe and their sympathizers would begin to impose their Islamic will.

Morad Almuradi, writing from the Netherlands, has created a petition on Change.org asking that the city council of Munich, Germany end the traditional 16-day Oktoberfest event.

He writes:

Dear City council of Munich,

I am writing this letter to bring to your attention something that I and many Muslims believe is unfair and requires attention.

I would like to inform you that the Oktoberfest is an Intolerant and Anti-Islamic event. We tried to ignore the event, but there too many Un-Islamic acts done at the Oktoberfest. Such as alcohol consumption, public nudity etc.

We understand that the Oktoberfest is a yearly German tradition, but we, Muslims, can not tolerate this Un-Islamic event, because it offends us and all Muslims on the earth.

We are requesting the immediate cancellation of the upcoming Oktoberfest event.

We also believe that the Oktoberfest might also offend all the Muslim refugees coming from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan. The cancellation of the Oktoberfest event will help refugees not to forget their Islamic history. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

Morad Almuradi

So far, Almuradi’s petition has over 250 signers.

Munich has been inundated with refugees, with 13,000 arriving Saturday alone, the Independent reports. The city, in the south of Germany, has been a main entry point for the refugees. City leaders say they are at capacity. Munich mayor Dieter Reiter has been described as “trembling with rage” because other cities haven’t helped him.

Now, he’s contending with those who are trying to change his culture.

Munich began holding Oktoberfest in 1810.

COMMENT:  We will have the same problem here.  The issue is not whether we should be kind to refugees, many of whom are fleeing desperate conditions.  The issue is whether they are willing to accept the traditional conditions of citizenship in their new countries

In America, we've always expected immigrants to want and work for American citizenship.  But some immigrant groups don't want to integrate into American society.  They want to change it to their specifications.  The same is true in Europe.  Left-wing groups, which already despise their own countries, are enthusiastic about this new immigrant philosophy.  They call it "multiculturalism," and it's already a disaster in many European nations.

We have a right to impose reasonable standards of loyalty and respect on new immigrants.  We are, after all, giving them a new home and a new chance at life.  And it is not "bigotry" to say so.
