No problem. Potential gun owners will simply become good at telling little white lies. It’s been done before when conditions necessitate. Attack BS with more BS.

That Merkel see you next Tuesday ordered new elections when she didn’t like AfD winning a seat in Thuringa. It is practically illegal to be a German in Hermany. It is insane.

Can the government point to any significant history of AfD members engaging in terrorist or violent rebellious activity with firearms? If not this decision is a bad joke, since the AfD has been around for a while and that provides a track record to judge by. I suspect this is basically the leftist elites citing their own bigotry as “evidence” against those they hate. (Which is straight from the Nazi playbook.)

Someone brought up this story about 2 weeks ago....I reviewed facts. What I said:

“A regional court...not the Constitutional Court...has rendered a verdict that this couple (being actual-payinng members of the AfD Party) must surrender their firearms (they were both licensed, and I think both were hunter-enthusiasts). The logic given is that the federal system has proclaimed the AfD Party to be a extremist political party.

Now, it’s only a regional court (Dusseldorf, NRW state), and this case will flow onto the Constitutional Court next.

To complicate matters....the couple could pack up and move to another state and the gun confiscation matter would be thrown back a notch or two. So far, the couple hasn’t chosen to do this.

Now I will add two personal comments here....the guy in question has 197 weapons (his wife has 27). Just guessing...there’s probably over 100k Euro in value here, and both could sell the weapons to non-AfD Party members as part of a ‘fix’.

The other thing I see...both husband and wife could resign from the AfD Party and just suggest they were cured of any extremist mentality. As stupid as it sounds....that also might work and make the court happy.

As for this all connecting to the ‘other’ court action going on....about the 7 Dec 2022 attempted Coup-d’état plot? Well....some federal and state-level folks were freaked out over this comical coup attempt in Germany, and that group has NO relationship to the AfD, but it charged up folks to worry about so many guns in the ‘wrong’ hands.

You can look up the Reichsbürger movement and see the whole story. Court action going on currently, and I would imagine it’ll be at least spring of 2026 before the case wraps up.

My humble view is that couple in question will arrive eventually at the Constitutional Court level, and that court will ask some tough questions...finding that federal law doesn’t allow for states to handle this, and the couple quietly moves to the Pfalz or some eastern state, with their gun collection....with the whole affair ended.

The comical side of this...if the couple had just been members of the Green Party or far-left Linke Party...they could keep their guns. My advice...never join any political party.

Footnote: German gun control/manaagement....is a state thing...not city or federal. It is purely a contract between you (the citizen) and the local police, after you successfully complete all their paperwork. If you made any stupid threat against anyone, and the police get ‘wind’ of it...laws already exist for them to easily confiscate your collection. Just denying the police a chance to audit/inventory your collection...is enough for confiscation”.

Exactly.
I think the greatest (or one) disaster to western civ was WW1.

Germany as a victor would have solidified it. I’m amazed when people try to equate Pre-Weimar with Nazis. They were nothing alike.

True 😀

But now the Deep State power elites over here are every bit as bad as the ones who maltreat America, Canada, Britain, France, etc. etc.

Vile people, the whole lot of them 👎🏻

About World War One: a compromise peace (in 1916 or so) would, I think, have been even better.

In that timeline, the battles of the Somme and Verdun would have had the same significance for 20th century Europe as the fate of Magdeburg had been for the 17th and 18th centuries.

This would definitely have precluded a „second round“ in this unspeakably dreadful conflict - which, in the real timeline, turned out to be World War Two in Europe .
With all the unspeakable horrors it entailed.

Eternal peace to all those who lost their earthly lives 😭
Amen.

Es stimmt.

Filthy government everywhere. Being part Germam and a Germanophile, I hope we all can get back to our best traits, culture and heritage.
