The police in Germany falls under the authority of the states and not the federal government. Some of them, like Berlin, do require individual number tags. Additionally you have a constitutional right to fight a government that violates the

Ursula Haverbeck is a nazi who denies the Holocaust and publicly lies about it. She was found guilty of incitement to hatred. That is not a violation of freedom of speech. Lies are not covered by freedom of speech in Germany, they're n

Germany has no thoughtcrime laws. No laws that would have an affect on free speech or assembly have been passed recently or are under discussion formally or informally. Indeed precisely because opposition exists, this would be an incredibly

The growth will of course slow down eventually as it has in Europe and the US. Slow growth might still be considered acceptable enough by most as to not be too much of a problem. I don't see this happening in the immediate future, exce

The CP clearly believes that as long as growth is maintained and people's lives improve, there won't be any political resistance. I'm inclined to agree. We have a lot of examples of people protesting and calling for more repr

How many of those involved plea deals? If you can't afford legal representation, you won't get anything that deserves to be called that in the US. If you're then also faced with the ridiculously high sentences you can get in

Of course Breitbart claims that. Go to a prison and you'll see all the inmates claiming innocence. If this is the best argument you can up with I'd advice to not bring it up at all.
218.
by DasIch 10y ago
Breitbart itself describes itself very clearly as a champion for the neo-nazis that have re-branded themselves as "alt-right". Much of the news they provide is clearly misleading. I wouldn't necessarily go so far as saying Br

Don't mistake the flu for a cold. A cold is an inconvenience, the flu kills between a few thousand to tens of thousands of people, depending on which strain is currently dominant, every season in the US alone. You don't have to be

Germany doesn't impose any exams at all. The only limiting factor is that you qualify for university and maybe your grade, if the number of applicants requires it. There are no exams that need to be passed, no essays need to be written

Of course it would work for the US, if the US had sufficiently powerful insurance agencies. If hospitals and doctors want a certain amount of money and insurance agencies have the power to say no, these healthcare providers just won't

There is a difference between retrospectively determining that an injury is minor and doing so prospectively. It might not have looked all that minor when those tests were made.

Germany introduced national health care in 1883 but I'm sure we'll see how unsustainable it is any day now.

You're right of course. Nevertheless I think actions speak louder than works. The Republican party is not known for being hesitant or compromising. If they'd actually believe Obama's executive orders to be unconstitutional, t

Who is supposed to decide on which of these is unconstitutional or not, if not the Supreme Court and if the Supreme Court decides that what stopped the Republicans from going to court earlier? Surely they would have, if the thought they&#x2

It's not just a question of what expertise the legislative has or doesn't have. Just like software you'd ideally want to work on laws in an iterative fashion. It's incredibly unlikely that a law, especially complex laws

In bank or medical situations you can run into situations where even though the people all know English, they might not have the necessary vocabulary to express themselves in English or lack certification proving they do. Anyone who doesn&#

Yeah because you'll get money instead of employee benefits. Money you might be forced by law to spend on things like health insurance. Not to mention the additional effort on your part when it comes to securing contracts, managing taxe

You can have a scientific model of photosynthesis and explain the concept and how it works to students based on that model. They wouldn't be able to somehow implement that process afterwards nor would anyone expect them to. Software is

The problem here isn't a lack of training or culture. Properly "washing your hands" takes a surprisingly large amount of time. In practice people don't do it not because they don't know how or don't want to but

If there are two courses of action both with potentially deadly side effects, your definition would consider it a mistake taking one and having the patient die due to that side effect. I think mistake should imply doing something even thoug

Opening this site in Safari froze my entire machine. Granted it's a 5 year old Macbook Air but still this should never happen. Generally it seems to me that whenever something involves WebGL, performance and UX goes out the window.

How do you prevent an attacker from getting the seed? This would just create a possible attack vector that could be used to effectively disable address space randomization.

Left wing politicians tend to do things that are actually useful with that money though. Trump just gives himself tax breaks.

The only difference between Trump and Pence is that Pence is more qualified to execute the horrible promises they've made.

Those are all good reasons to use a bike but if you use one as a politician (consider that Germany has a Green party that actually matters) it's also a way of showing "street cred", if you will. It will certainly come across

The German parliament essentially has its own taxi service for the members to use within Berlin. The only reason to use something else for transport, like a bicycle, is for political reasons. Besides the parliament has no power over where s
