BERLIN (AP) -- Berlin police say they've raided 10 buildings in the German capital as part of a crackdown on far-right hate speech on social media networks.

Police said Thursday that the morning raids involved 60 officers, who confiscated smartphones and computers as evidence, which are now being evaluated. They didn't have any immediate information on arrests.

Is hate speech when you talk about something you don’t like that the government likes?

I’d bet that they don’t even monitor what’s going on in the Mosques.

Berlin's top security official, Frank Henkel, says authorities "won't turn away if racism or incitement is being spread on the Internet."

But they will turn away if Muslim "refugees" are actually committing rapes and racial or religious violence.

Affirmative sir. It probably includes saying anything bad about the "official government religion" too, and we all know what the darling religion of many western governments is.

That's more or less what's happening: they opened a criminal investigation of a PEGIDA leader for calling the wave of migrants an "invasion." That's supposed to be criminal "hate speech."

It's quite clear that the German government is abusing the laws on hate speech in order to suppress critical political movements.

* Is hate speech when you talk about something you don’t like that the government likes *

Hate speech is when you are in the slightest disagreement with the government or a Leftist.

In some cases, when you merely state the Truth.

I bet that youtube video that’s gone viral on the immigrant invasion of Germany prompted this.
