Hamburg police have been called to the Schanzenviertel several times before
The northern German city of Hamburg has been hit by heavy rioting overnight as up to 1,000 left-wing activists and anarchists clashed with police after a street festival in central parts of Germany's second-largest city.

ドイツで、極左と無政府主義者が暴動を起こして、６７名が逮捕者が出た、という。
なんの目的なのかな、と思ってググってもよくわからない。

HAMBURG (AP) German officials say a leftist street party in Hamburg turned violent overnight and ended with 67 arrests and 28 police officers injured

どうも単なる祭りかなにかが、暴動に化したらしい。警官にも２８人負傷者が出ているほどだという。

Neo-Nazi Demo Scares off German Football Team

An eastern German town ventured to make a political statement by hosting a soccer match under a slogan of racial tolerance. But when the far-right, neo-Nazi NPD announced it was going to demonstrate, the opposing team, Energie Cottbus, backed out.

人種の多様性に対する寛容さを示そうと、多様性への活力（With Energie for Tolerance）と銘打って、（たぶん有色人non-whiteの選手が多い）とあるチームを招待したら、ネオナチから脅迫を受けてチームは参加を辞退した、と。

Racism and soccer have a complicated history in Germany. Many fan clubs, particularly in eastern Germany, have become bastions fo the neo-Nazi movement. Some far-right groups even sponsor local soccer clubs. And non-white players often come in for racist abuse from the stands.
In 2006, a former government spokesman cast a shadow over the excited lead-up to the World Cup in Germany by warning non-white visitors not to go to parts of the former East German. Some called his reference to "no-go" areas exaggerated but when the far-right National Democratic Party (NPD) distributed a pamphlet suggesting that national team defender Patrick Owomoyela, of mixed German Nigerian birth, wasn't white enough to play on the team, many felt confirmed in their suspicion that there was a problem with racism in football.

とくにドイツ東部では、ひどくて、有色人はサッカーで東部にいくな、という警告されていたこともあった、そうです。

・・・・・そういうことです。
