Germany: Far-right protesters boo Merkel as she departs Heidenau refugee centre

Around 100 far-right extremists booed German Chancellor Angela Merkel as she exited a refugee centre in Heidenau, Wednesday. The group kept echoing the cry, "We are the pack." After anti- refugee protests turned violent in Heidenau, Sunday, Merkel visited the refugees and aid workers in the affected facility. She was accompanied by Prime Minister of Saxony Stanislaw Tillich and Mayor Jurgen Opitz. Merkel's visit to the refugee shelter lasted almost two hours. Afterwards, she made it clear at a brief press conference that "there is no tolerance for those who question the dignity of other human beings," and went on to stress that "Germany will help where help is needed, this is part of our national identity."
