Ahmad Mansour criticizes unjustified stigmatization of the police

The psychologist Ahmad Mansour laments the lack of social support for the police in Germany. "It has become mainstream that we speak of the 'police problem' and generally describe police officers as racist per se," said the author in the "Wochentester" podcast from "Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger" and "RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland" (RND). . Mansour sharply criticized the circulating films of police operations that eyewitnesses have posted on the Internet. There are "people who get excited about videos like this to say: Look how ugly our police force is," he said.

The psychologist also spoke about the riots and violence against police officers and rescue workers on New Year's Eve, which are said to have emanated primarily from young men with a migration background and refugees. "We have to talk about tougher penalties," Mansour demanded. "Even the refugees I work with say that." Integration is possible if the rules are clearly communicated. “Most refugees say: Tell us what you expect from us. Tell us what integration means,” said the psychologist from conversations with asylum seekers. But nobody does that.

Mansour grew up in Israel in an Arab-Palestinian family and has lived in Berlin since 2004. The bestselling author (“Plain text on integration. Against false tolerance and scaremongering”) is involved in various projects against extremism.
