Need some help from German players

[Felix]

Hey guys. I am currently writing a short story about a guy from BKA investigating a planning terroristic attack. So i'd like to ask some help from someone who actually lives in Germany (Hamburg, Berlin and other big cities) or/and familiar with German Police system. I want to make a realistic-looking story. There are some questions:

1) What city should i choose? I thought about picking Hamburg
2) What kind of location would terrorists go for? Like lot of people and low security?
3) Can a person of non-germanic origin work in police structure (in our case - BKA) (like immigrant from other European country)?

That's it for now, i will add some more after i actually plan the plot.

Hamburg is a good pick,
Google Hamburg Bunker and Check out if that Party location would suit your story, its quite unique and large.

And ya, you dont have to be born in germany to be a bka Agent.

Hamburg Bunker is a museum, right? I need something more open. Like a local sightseeing or tourist site, with bunch of people visiting it every day and with no way to control the things, if they'd go wild (for example bunch of people are gathering for flashmob, then a fire starts, mass panic, police can't do a shit and there goes a boom)
Okey, then i will stick with Hamburg.

And what about other nationality? Like can a turkish man become a BKA agent? Or asian?

BTW there's one more question, there are a lot of immigrants from Asia coming to Germany, right? Is that a problem for locals? How can you describe the overall attitude towards them? Are they more prone to commit crimes or something like that?

[Felix]

And btw one more question - do muslim in Europe while gathering for praying for some huge religious event leave their cars on the street blocking the traffic?

asians arent our problem, our only problem are the turksih/arabs which dont wanna immigrate but still get our hartz 4 (social help/ free money)

2) What kind of location would terrorists go for? Like lot of people and low security?

as terrorist I would pick a big fair (we call it Kirmes), there are no security checks, mostly germans and a lot of them.. there is police of course, but they wont control anyone unless they behave strange. Almost every german city has a fair once a year, the bigger the city the bigger the fair^^

Thank you)

I am participating a literature contest )

More questions to come: what's your typical turkish/arab immigrant? Do they learn german language, culture etc? Have low pay jobs? Big families? Living in some kind of ghetto?

[Laufknoten]

Carneval in cologne would be a good choice, masses of drunken people who only think of alcohol and parties, "western decadence" at it's finest... If I was a terrorist I would definitely choose it for a terroristic attack.

[Cepeshi]

arabs work there in hotels, as taxi drivers and in general services, at least from what i saw while on business trip in Frankfurt for like half year )

and yeah, they do speak quite well, at least those i dealt with did

yes they learn or not,, how you wanna call it a few words and of course all insultings....they do speak  german after 10 years like i do speak english now


edit: some have a job but a low payd one, or getting that social help ,  many just hang around streets to start fights with germans which is also just more retarded

[Torben]

We have many well integrated muslims in germany. As always, the few black sheep stand out and make a Bad Name for the whole populus.
The guys that are of greater interest to you as an author, are not the primitive muslims with antiquary views, but the misled, maybe even intelectual youth that might become the prey of fanatic religious leaders.

You gave me another nice idea here - i decided to make one of characters the misled young snobby turkish young man. Maybe not that young, but misled for sure.

I will start writing tomorrow. Unfortunately you won't be able to read it cause i will be writing in Russian) Though i will continue consulting with you guys when i get to specific parts that involves Germany. Thank you all.
