Insecurity, my ass. More like security.

German police have said that 'insecurity' sparked by migrant sex attacks is behind a rise in the number of people with firearms licences.

A survey of Germany's 16 states revealed that 640,000 citizens are now able to carry a weapon. This number was only 260,000 in 2014.

In total there are 5.4 million privately owned guns with the proportion of licence holders being highest in Schleswig-Holstein, reports thelocal.

The Union of Police said 'more and more people feel insecure' since the sexual assaults on women outside Cologne Cathedral on New Year's Eve 2015.
