The problem, according to the media and political elites, is using the word no-go zones. Anyone using that term is smeared, defamed and libeled.

Most Germans now fear ‘no-go zones’ where they believe police are too afraid to patrol, new poll shows According to the study, 51 per cent of those surveyed think no-go zones exist
