User ID: 76874997 Netherlands 01/15/2020 07:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Manhunt for a Hitler Impersonator in Saxony (Germany) During a motorcycle meeting in the German town of Augustusburg, near the eastern border, a Hitler imitator rode laps in a sidecar, to the visible amusement of those present. The reactions in the rest of the world were considerably different when a video of the incident went viral. It shows that police officers do not get in the way of the Hitler figure and even take smiling pictures, just like other bystanders. The meeting was visited by around 1,600 people. According to Bild the police failed to arrest the Hitler impersonator and the police accepts that were wrong. Be that as it may it is an infringement of freedom of speech. It would have been a different matter if the Hitler impersonator had incited hate and violence. It is however tasteless but being tasteless is no criminal offence. Those are my two cents.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1697650 There is even a German movie "Er ist wieder da" in which Hitler returns to modern day Germany. That was not even banned or censored because it was satire. But ride on a motorbike looking remotely as Hitler you are in big trouble in Germany and Austria. The letter was found out by Dutch TV host Rob Muntz who thought is funny to dress up like Hitler whilst attending a congress of the conservative FPÖ party. Again it was aired in the Netherlands as "satire΅. Pro Brexit, Pro Nexit, Anti-EU |
