Facebook Commenter Faces Hate Speech Probe
The Local ^ | 9/18

Posted on 09/20/2015 11:42:20 AM PDT by nickcarraway

The television broadcaster Südwest Rundfunk (SWR) has reported a user of its Facebook page to state prosecutors for writing a racist commentary on the refugee crisis.

The person had commented on an post about refugees on ARD-Weltspiegel's Facebook page with the words "dirty cattle, if I only had 24 hours and a sharp knife..."

The user's profile picture also contained a text which read "Arabs aren't human. Death to the donkey XXXXXXX,“ the state-owned broadcaster alleged in a statement released on Friday.

State prosecutors in Stuttgart have now begun an investigation into a case of possible incitement to hatred, which falls under criminal code 130 of the federal law and carries a maximum sentence of five years in jail.

The writer was incorrect, according to extensive gun camera footage from US IFVs, it’s goats not donkeys.

It a Muslim had posted the exact same words about a Jew it wouldn’t have even been noticed.

The Thought Police are everywhere. That is why I try to take the ‘Loose lips sink ships’ warning seriously and be careful not to always say what I am really thinking.

Death to the donkey XXXXXXX

I can understand why this is considered hate speech. Several donkeys had their feelings hurt.

The more accurate term is "goat-" or "camel-xxxxxxxx's."

Isn’t “A running man can slit a thousand throats in one night” an Arab saying? I think it is...

Hate speech by victim groups is never prosecuted.

I think we should all go to Südwest Rundfunk’s Facebook page and write what we think of invading Muslims.

No I think it’s Klingon. Arabs aren’t that great at war-fighting in general & worse at Special operations.
