Threatening to throw someone in jail if they insult a politician IS a restriction of free speech. How else do you restrict free speech? They can't install blocking devices inside a person's vocal chords that prevents the speech from even occuring.
This is like saying speeding is not restricted because people can still push the pedal beyond the speed limit. Of course they can! But there are state enforced consequences for it, which means that speeding is illegal (restricted).
She's the bully. The user who made that comment is the victim. Its one thing to call someone fat, its a totally different thing to throw them in a prison cell.
If she wants justice, just reply to that comment and call the commenter a fatass too. There problem solved!
If they want to arrest someone for calling a politician fat, They are WORSE THAN ICE! That's not professional at all. A professional does not get deterred by random internet comments calling them fat.
And I don't care what the laws are in Germany. They can make how many ever useless ass laws they want, doesn't change what is morally right/wrong.
Wtf does that mean? "free speech" literally means the ability to air ideas without the threat of violence or persecution. So yes, free speech should come without any legal consequence.
Fox News is a reliable source. They're not some fringe alternative news outlet.
People threatening to imprison members of the public just because they insulted one of their politicians. That definitely sounds like Nazi behavior to me.
The nazis engaged in propaganda and punished people who spoke ill against their politicians. This is Nazi behavior. And since we're in modern times, they are "Neo Nazis". Neo means "new".
The news article paraphrases the original comment (which is probably now deleted)
Spreading of lies is called defamation. And that's illegal everywhere.
Oh how I wished this was satire, but its real LMAO. Really? You're gonna throw someone in jail just because they called you "fat"?
That's real fa(t)cism.
The founding fathers studied the laws and constitution of other countries all too well and knew exactly what NOT to do and warned against fuhrious fatties. Everybody says America sucks but are still fighting to get here (legally or illegally). Cause it sucks so much!
