I've eaten at the Metro-Alpin restaurant in Saas Fee Switzerland. At 3,500m (~11550 ft) I'd say it's a bit higher.

Actually, I was there. I am an American living and working in Stuttgart. Over the past decade, this project has been mentioned in the local press of Stuttgart, and the entire region. Significant protests or court actions to halt the actions then? No. None of these mighty protest groups did anything of local/state significance to halt the project. It took over fifteen years of planning, discussion in the local area, and then the push along state/national levels to get funding. Plenty of time to stop a project, IF anyone truly wanted that as their agenda.

What you have now are some unhappy residents who have to stand and watch ten years of construction in their backyard, a bunch of under-achiever anarchists from Stuttgart and the region who want to demonstrate their powers to stop a state-run project, minor political parties (like the green party) looking to score points in the upcoming elections and teenagers in Stuttgart who are looking for fun & adventure when it comes to riots or protests.
The police came with the construction workers, and asked for over an hour for the demonstrators to move peacefully out of the way. When they wouldn't, water cannons were employed. The people who were injured are injured by their own fault.

Too many good AMERICAN women fought for equal rights for women here in our country; to allow you to wear your sign of subordination would be a slap in their faces. That is all a headscarf is, a sign of subordination. They don't even allow women in TURKEY to wear headscarves at work, and Turkey is a Muslim country.

Mexico is not "most other countries"... pain treatment after a surgery in Germany (as well as most EU countries) is aspirin, if you ask for something stronger you get Tylenol but only after approval from the beaurocracy. Furthermore, you cannot get any medication in Europe, including OTC drugs like aspirin, without going to a pharmacy ( so no late night trips to walmart for nyquil). I wouldn't say "most other countries" have more relaxed laws.
