Seeking Exile in Germany
Ok, I can meet with all credentials although I am not seeking standard entry into the country, I'm seeking exile outside the USA due to ignored injuries-harassments and persecutions-and neglect.

Germany is not the only country I am currently seeking aid from, although Germany has a fairly good human standard, and I'm probably going to be seeking socialized support. Here in the USA I have nearly died a couple of times, and the locality banded together to ensure that I got nothing out of the injuries, and no socialized care. They did restore me to fairly good health, although the locality did not follow through with occupation or path to a independent life, and Ive been abused for years within their system with NO help with these matters.

I can not afford legal help, I can not afford to leave the USA, so I'm seeking a nation who would grant me assisted exile for the purpose of escaping control and persecutions, while litigating over decades of miserable life and injury.

Renew Passport...
Okay, my German Reisepass (Passport) expired Summer 2009 . I live in Huntsville, Alabama. And i know that i have to travel and be there in person to get another passport issued. But this is a pain...I don't like to sit for hours in the car (highway) to get to Altanta. I get car sick, very easy! But as i read above , people who work there at the Konsulat, don't care wat your situation is. I find that very rude and unprofessional.Oh well,guess we all do what we gotta do...right? Not to many options for us aviable....Sad but true. I hope Martina (the lady above) will get her passport!! God bless & good luck to all!

Reisepass
Ich bin immer wieder erstaunt, wie höflich und kompetent die Leute beim Konsulat sind -- sie müssen so vielen Leuten immer wieder das gleiche erklären und so viele Dokumente verarbeiten! Es ist nicht die Schuld der beim Konsulat beschäftigten, dass man heutzutage zur Erneuerung eines Passes persönluch vorsprechen muss. Das ist ein Gesetz, das diese Leute befolgen müssen. Es ist die Schuld der Terroristen, dass es immer schwieriger wird sich eindeutig zu identifizieren und dass die Sicherheitskontrollen immer stringenter werden.
Vielen herzlichen Dank dem Konsulat für die ausgezeichneten Dienstleistungen!!!

PASSPORT
No...I had different experience …. I am German but I have been in the USA for 30 years now … I am trying to go back to Germany to visit my Family, I have not seen my family in 20 years. To make the story short … I am unemployed, I have not vehicle, I am divorced, I live to far away from Atlanta GA …. And I have no one to help me ….
So, here I am calling the consulate and a lady answered the phone …. Very rude female… I am explaining my situation … and I am trying to find out if there is a way for me to get my passport without coming to Atlanta …. Her response was …. Well you can not cut off your finger and mailed it to us .. so I guess there is no other way but to come! I told her again politely my situation and that the process would take me 2-3 days just to get to Atlanta and back home.
No sympathy … no understanding … she became extremely rude …… that I hung up the phone because I was so upset and embarrassed … OH my GOD … she is representing our country … DEAR GOD … what happened to these Germanys that work here at the consulate IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE HERE AND SERVE YOUR PEOPLE GOOOOOOO BACKKKK HOME
