    So what do you think did more damage: the event or the attempts at downplaying/covering up?
    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    Damage to whom or what? And how does one measure the amount of damage? In Euros, in persons or in political influence of people, parties or groups? And why would this be important? Do I need to choose a wrong? The German public had a lot of criticism for both.

    I think the act itself, but the police chief of Cologne has already stepped down for downplaying it IIRC.
    I suppose people are more concerned about actually getting hurt than about politicians who lie.

    Shit never flows down except in toilets. It's the childless mother who's responsible.
