It'll get worse and more frequent. There are just too many people flooding into the continent to know who the bad guys are.

The bad guys are: Merkel, Hollande, Juncker, and the rest of the suits living behind armed body guards, armor plated limousines, and twenty-first century castles.

So what do the rest of us do.

Get out of Europe if you have any sense.
