Isn’t it an actual law?

There’s literally not a single mention of the fact there is a law in Germany about languages used at protests without a translator present.

Sounds more like protesters are under attack rather than the irish language. Much easier to get sympathy for “they’re stopping us speaking our language” than “they’re stopping us protesting in their country”.

This is what the hate speech legislation the EU are foisting on us looks like in practice. Germany already has it.

They broke the law, even if it is a stupid law that is being used poorly.

It’s not about the Irish language, it’s about any foreign language at public events in Germany. My friends had the same problem at a rally where they tried to give speeches in Ukrainian.

Fuck me, the amount of boot licking in these comments. Do people not know that the 1916 Rising was against the law, the war of independence was against the law? The law can (and often is) wrong. The law in this case is being used to silence opposition to a genocide.

And of course people here are defending their stupid law against non German at protests instead of focusing on the fact that Germany has been nothing but absolutely either fucking delusional toward the topic of Palestine/Israel or just straight up compliant.
But “hurr durr it’s the law they should respect it”. German police have dragged people out of events simply for supporting Palestine. Your comments are horseshite

Misleading headline, they target pro Palestine protests all the time, they only used the law that all protests must be in English and German to arrest her.

What’s the law? That nobody can speak publicly in anything other than German?

What about a dialect like [Öcher Platt](https://www.dat-es-oche.de/index.php/oecher-platt/w%C3%B6rterbuch)? Will they get arrested too?
How can they arrest people under a hate-speech law if they don’t know what people are saying. Isn’t there any form of due process?
This sounds like suppressing the opposition with government thugs all over again.
Fucking idiots going abroad to protest.
They’ve even done this to people speaking Hebrew supporting palestine
Old habits die hard
What a bullshit headline
Normal day in Germany im sad for how Germany became a pet for the jews
The Kreuzberg layabouts ran out of coke and molly and are complaining?
Average Palestine rage bait title
