its a crime in Germany to deny the Holocaust
Legislation against denying the Holocaust has been on the books in Germany since 1985, and in 1994 this law was amended. The 1985 law (Article 194, 21st) states that denying the Holocaust is an impingement of human dignity, and is defined as an offense. However, pressing charges against the offenders requires the victim's agreement.The 1994 law (Amendment to Article 130) states that denying the Holocaust is a criminal offence according to the law against incitement. This law also broadens the prohibition from the previous law, and in addition to denying the crimes of the Nazi regime and agreeing with its objectives it includes the prohibition of the use of Nazi symbols and slogans.Article 130: [13](3) Whoever publicly, or at a meeting, denies, diminishes, or approves an act committed under the regime of National Socialism, of the kind described in Article 220A, paragraph 2, in a way likely to disturb the public peace ."Punishment according to the law:The 1985 Law: Up to one year in prison or a fineThe 1994 Law: Up to five years in prison or a fine
im finished here. nothing but Nazi trolls
That should be a crime in and of itself to not be able to debate history. They have even imprisoned people. Now Putin just made it a crime, as he and PM Bibi is getting along real good. Just the simple fact the make it a crime means they have something to hide. the real crime is what they have done to the German people and the German country and the lie itself just to get money off of it and their exploitation of it as a sympathy card. That is the crime, insinuating also that their deaths are more imp. that the other 65 mil who died.
I find it utterly destable, and not a honor to the people who have lost their lifes.
