I'm not supportive of defamation laws but clearly you (and this journalist) are sensationalizing what happened.
- sickofparadox 2y agoIf this happened in America I don't think it would be an issue if a mob killed the judge and jury. Minimizing and justifying this at all should be a permanently disqualifying act. If you think that it's ok at any level, I don't want to share a country with you.

- sickofparadox 2y agoEverything I said was 100% correct, you (and gp) are trying to downplay Germany imprisoning a woman for speaking ill of a gang rapist who was given no jail time.
- thomassmith65 2y agoAfter reading a closer source (machine-translated), I apologize, especially since the issue is media literacy. Your comment was near enough to the facts that I was wrong to be a scold. * https://archive.ph/vml0k https://archive.ph/vml0k German newspaper * https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/57108 https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/57108 random English discussion of source
- hitekker 2y agoThanks for backing this up with more evidence. It's a graceful move to acknowledge a mistake. I also thought the GP was just throwing fire. But after reading more into the matter, I'm a little too disgusted to dig anymore.
- selimthegrim 2y agoThis did happen, in Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana when someone badmouthed the sheriff. No one killed anyone though.
