You mean like how weapons exports to Israel stopped because of all of those laws and restrictions? Oh that never happened.
Fucking fedditors again boil germany
Yes it fucking is.
The purpose of a system is what it does.
Germany is a bureaucratic hell because the powers that be choose to keep it that way.
The EU, like the US, has designed a system where the authorities can inflict horrendous suffering on innocent people by exploiting their discretion and abusing the gap between arrest (or sanction) and court hearing to inflict untold misery.
Police in the West can arrest, sanction, confine, physically and mentally abuse, their political opponents on a whim. They can arrest anyone they want as a punishment for anything or nothing. And when the courts ultimately say "this arrest was not lawful, release this prisoner" it doesn't fucking matter because the prisoner has suffered so horribly that only the strongest of them will dare to do anything against the government again.
But the victim was released. Eventually. And that makes all the beatings and rapes and starvation okay, right?
