AFD denies connections in Newspaper – Thugs participate in Election Party
By Tuesday September 6, an AfD spokesman has given an interview to local newspaper Abendzeitung about the thugs and the escalation in front of the restaurant. In the statement Wilfried Biedermann denies that the AfD has any connection to the persons that started beating up antifascists in front of the restaurant. Also Biedermann states that every person participating and entering the restaurant ‘Portugal’ was controlled and their ID was checked. The inside of the restaurant can be seen in a video uploaded to the party’s own YouTube-Channel AfD Television. In the video Lukas Bals, Chris Ares and another thug can be spotted:
Videoquotes from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj4fowh2yNM ; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Buf22XGGhrU
To prevent further vain attempts of the party to deny a connection and the thugs participation after the beatings in front of the restaurant: The videos where taken as there is already predictions about the quote AfD took in the election polls. As usually in Germany the first predictions where published a 6PM on the evening of the election. This is at least twenty minutes after the beating took place. This once more proves that the thugs participated in the election party.
looooool der abschuss. das ganze vermummte und auf den bildern verpixelte faschistenpack stoert eine wahlparty einer demokratischen party und stellt sich dann als opfer da. allesamt wegsperren und psychotherapie durchfuehren, die koennen einem ja nur leid tun. ich schaeme mich fuer diese bildungsfernen linksextremisten. im grunde tut es mir in der seele weh, dass die so geworden sind, sie wissen es ja nicht besser und tief drinnen sind es auch nur menschen

Hi “Guenter Deutschmann” – I was on site to see who was participating in the AfD election party. If you follow through on AfD events you will realise that counter-protests keeps reoccuring and are not that unusual. This eruption of violence though is very much.

Haben die hirntoten Hassfratzen von den Linksfaschisten (ANTIdeutschen FAschisten) zur Abwechslung mal auf’s Maul gekriegt. Normalerweise sind sie es, die anstaendige Buerger, die ihr Demonstrationsrecht wahrnehmen, terrorisieren – mit Steinen bewerfen, verpruegeln, Autos abfackeln. Die SA des Merkelregimes.
