'I think we are legion. Those who are ignored when they protest, body and soul, at any minority, more at risk group being hurled under the bus in the defence of the indefensible'.
I think you are mistaken. The number of people that want to focus on one group of people as responsible for attacks and possible future attacks on one group, is quite small actually. Many of the women protesting in Cologne have not directed attention at any 'group' except men that attack women and the system that does not address sexual violence.
Women's outrage at sexual violence has been ignored for years. It is nothing new. Saying it is ignored because of race is incorrect. It is ignored because the police, courts and society do not take enough action and blame women for attacks. Not unifying against all public sexual attacks against women, regardless who they are committed by, is hurling women under the bus. By making the attacks by certain men of special importance or a worse kind of threat, you denigrate the attacks done by others
'Far from calming things down, those who wish to cover up, make great leaps of mitigation, deflect and deny are acting as tinder being hurled at sparks in the vicinity of a ruddy great keg of black powder. In that respect they are no different from the sections of the media who would employ deliberately inflaming reporting'.
Noone has denied. They just don't want to polarise the argument against sexual violence against women around race because it doesn't help. Focusing on the sexual violence and lack of action by courts and police does help, as does addressing misogyny. Noone is deliberately inflaming but people like you that try to rationalise racism and make racist generalisations seem 'common sense.'
You are not as far as the extreme right as you seem to think.
