Abnormal human being's comment gives you a good idea why this is ban worthy. Pandering to conspiracy/extremist even if unintentional must be avoided to preserve the community.
What conspiracy? This is literally a thing that happened.
The conspiracy is that they are only being deported for protest when they have been arrested for a number of crimes.
I don't agree with the part about deportation without going through the courts first though.
The shit? No they're not. Some other people in the same protest committed these crimes; these protesters aren't accused of any criminal acts.
Maybe not just read articles that promote one narrative while leaving out essential information. The four protesters are accused of multiple things. Sure, they should be put on trial first and if guilty, get their punishment then be deported.
Sigh.
To correct myself, it seems that two are accused of a criminal act: Insulting an officer. That's... uh... The fuck?
Insult is a crime in Germany regardless who you insult. It's Germany, not the US. You can't just harass people here, regardless of their status.
It alone wouldnt warrant deportation. However the article is still missing information I find in German language articles.
Also I support the "enforced politeness" but find that the fines are a bit excessive. Should rather be treated like a traffic infraction instead
A (false) accusation is gonna fire back.
Since I can't verify that the edit made by TanteRegenbogen one minute after OneOfUrBusiness' comment drastically changes the conetext, I will neither start discussing about that, nor undelete the comment, but republish it as part of my own comment.
The comment was "So you can just accuse an immigrant of insulting you and get them deported?". What the comment implies is wrong since you simply can't do that. But it might have a context I do not know about.
You aren't good at reading are you?
The shit? You added that information after my response.
No, I didn't. It isn't edited.
Must be a system hiccup because I didn't change anything.
Okay that was funny, but dude seriously? C'mon.
I can't remember making an edit though. Dunno what happened.
