This is actually a smart punishment.
Fines don’t change minds, but forcing someone to face what those slogans led to might.
Places like Auschwitz aren’t abstract history …. they’re a reminder of how far things can go when people stop taking this seriously.
Feels more meaningful than just a slap on the wrist.

They shouldve kicked him out, he knew what he was saying. Yet another of many reasons to call Cops Nazis.

We should make it that all Bundeswehr Personal visit a KZ at least once.

>He also argued that whether using the slogan is punishable “is in the eye of the beholder,” pointing to the fact that a German influencer had not been prosecuted for using the same phrase.
Did this dude not have a lawyer present before or as he said this? 52 year old police officer. I’m not saying there are expectations to be better, but weighing statements more carefully than some “influencer” is a low bar.
Good on the Judge.

Why do people think it’s a punishment for nazis to visit Auschwitz?
They would either be delighted by what they see or simply call it a lie and don’t believe it happened.

Why is he allowed to remain a cop though?
Not because he is a nazi (which should be enough of a reason already) but because of his arguments about that influencer?
If a (senior) cop doesn’t have any common sense and basic understanding about the law, why is he not immediately fired for being incompetent and unfit to be a cop in the first place?
I mean his “arguments” are proof enough, that’s it’s grossly negligent to allowe him to remain a cop.

This got me thinking about the recent change to German conscription. If a German said he was a Nazi, would he still be conscripted?

Im sorry but “Everything for Germany” is so generic it really shouldnt be punishable ever. Just because Nazis used some phrase a 100 years ago doesnt mean those words should be gone from our language

Germany, I get what you’re going for, but “Germany sends person to Auschwitz” isn’t a sentence I wanna hear
