Cops aren't just bastards, they're often dumb as bricks. No surprise they don't know the difference between "content criticising Nazism" and "content praising Nazism".
Sometimes it's not that they're too dumb not to understand, it's that they understand but no one will stop them from enforcing however they deem fit. If they support these fascists (cops, so it's likely) then they'll happily apply this to clearly anti Nazi stuff and give a free pass to actually hateful things aimed at minorities since those are clearly artistic. Cops doing cop stuff.
I get that police would investigate: go to the venue, look at the posters, if they glorify Nazis or the ideology, take them down and arrest everyone.
But that seemed like an obvious statement against Nazis and politicians the behave like them, I guess it was good publicity, anyway.
That would require the police to have the mental capacity to understand nuance
Does anyone have pics of said posters? For science.
Wow, the judge is going to laugh the cops out of court.
I don't think you get how that relationship works. At best you'll get a "tut tut, be less obvious"
The trump and Nyetnu (fuck it, I ain't double checking spelling) posters are obviously satire, but I could see an argument that someone might be confused on the other three if there wasn't the obvious context of everything else going on around them.
Is it satire, though? These ghouls are actually nazis, after all.
You can't leave us hanging by not sharing the posters! At least the article doesnt't show them, not on direct link.
Someone posted them in the comments 🎁
Oh that's nice! I had not noticed them before, thanks!
First amendment?
Our first amendment changed the starting date of senators' terms (from January to July) to better align with elections.
How does that apply here?
This happened in Australia
Yes, the colonial monarchist petrostate.
While your statement is true, I was only pointing out they don't have the first amendment.
(Yes, it is bad the police seized this stuff)
