I believe Paleo Conservative may be referring to the homeschooling ban.

Absolutely! I spoke to one of my congressman's political liason's about that issue a couple of weeks ago.

I think I'll also ask Senator Cruz next week about writing a law forbidding the US to deport any person to Germany for violating any German law enacted during the NAZI era. It was a serious oversight that we didn't require the postwar West German constitution abolish all laws enacted during the NAZI era. He's the speaker at my county's Lincoln Dinner next week, and I have a pass for the VIP reception with Senator Cruz.

Germans very typically have the same kind of attitude toward home-schooling as Americans did in say, the 1960s & ‘70s. It’s considered something oddball and even threatening—given that Muslims are one of their biggest minorities. Turks and other Muslim peoples are about as common there as Hispanics are in the USA. The LAST thing the Germans want are lower class Muslim immigrants schooling their own kids in homemade terror-Madrasas...

It’s unfortunate that Christian families are getting persecuted for homeschooling—but there is a suspicion in Europe of ANY kind of persons who are very religious—as being religious is considered odd, fanatical... and even threatening. People have accepted the atheist lie that all religions lead to conflict, war and death—and that intelligent, educated people should hold to religion lightly or not at all.

My point is, out of fear that millions of immigrants will never integrate into free—and quite secular—German society, or some other fanatical people will secretely indoctrinate their kids (maybe as neo-Nazis), public opinion—and the government following it—opposes home-schooling.

Do I disagree? Yes, of course one should be able to educate your own kids...however, I do understand the German position—and that they are in a different situation than in the USA.
