"Integration requires effort from those that are to be integrated. I will not show respect for anyone that is not making that effort. I do not have to acknowledge anyone who lives by welfare, denies the legitimacy of the very state that provides that welfare, refuses to care for the education of his children and constantly produces new little headscarf-girls. This holds true for 70 percent of the Turkish and 90 percent of the Arab population in Berlin."

: girls in headscarves sounds nicer // I meant nice in a linguistic sense, not in a respectful sense. I don't think any of his contempt is lost in this formulation.

True, but I don't think we should be going for 'nice' here.

: With mill2//You could make a case to that effect. Less elegant but on balance you may be right about that..Both options would work just fine, though, I think.
