Merkel is creating the conditions for war against Germany again.

If Germany becomes a country dominated by hostile Arab ethnic interests, it will be once again a threat to Europe and the United States.

She does this at extreme risk.

Heil Merkel!

Gestapo Raids, why does she hate free speech?

Heil Merkel

Berlin Gestappo Raid Hate Speech Dissidents

Posted 12 November 2015 — 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.

They say the raids are part of an ongoing investigation into hate speech spread over social media meant to incite people against asylum-seekers and refugee housing.

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

He says that the authorities alone can’t police hate speech online and appealed for social networks themselves to combat it more effectively.

This is what happens when you don’t have a Constitution with a first amendment.

Insanity is right! Merkel needs to go. I can't believe that the German people are standing for this!

The German people have stood for this before.

yes... if Germany gets hijacked, it stands to get punished twice. by the hijacking itself, and by the international reaction against the menace the hijacking created.

He went on to call the poem a “serious crime against humanity” that had “crossed all lines of indecency.”

Erdogan and his murderous Turkey are a “serious crime against humanity.”

The EU globalists are doing this to Germany and Europe, but also to all of us. Europe was once a beautiful place with lovely remnants of history. All that will be wiped out by the invaders. Destroyed. It’s a travesty over humanity.

Germans can’t help it, apparently.

Well, they didn’t allow Germans to insult Bush. Oh wait.

There actually some nitwits at the WaPo commentary saying the comedian crossed line. Know why? ....he made some comments about Erdogan THAT WEREN'T TRUE!!!

That's the way people i.e. liberals think. We're talking about a nasty politician, Erdogan. The comedian didn't threaten Erdogan...he said he might have performed some sexual acts involving animals. And for that he should be arrested.

If that goes through, no politician can ever be satirized again. Of course, this is simply erstwhile spineless libs giving in to fascist dictators. Libs are licking their chops hoping to prosecute conservatives for saying bad things about King Barck.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan is a cross-dressing lesbian pretending to be a man.

So up yours, Merkel!

NATO now is just security cover for progressive-left massive social-engineer and to protect the rise of proto-fascist statism in the EU. The USA is complicit in the slow suicide of Europe

Ahh, ...yes.

Luckily these satirists are Israeli so cannot be charged under this law protecting emperors from insults by commoners:

The Three Terrors : Erdogan, Assad, and Ahmadinejad
