In Berlin, a judge just sentenced an activist to 8 months in jail for peacefully blocking motorized traffic. https://climatejustice.social/@AufstandLastGen/111101857209685131
In the same city last year, a person was given a suspended sentence for murdering 4 people with an SUV. https://www.berlin.de/gerichte/presse/pressemitteilungen-der-ordentlichen-gerichtsbarkeit/2022/pressemitteilung.1177691.php
@algowatching lemme use my magical mind powers to guess the omitted details: the person that “murdered” the people with a SUV was in an accident by no or small fault of his own while the activist not only actively decided to be illegally a pain in the ass for everyone in the vicinity, but did it enough times previously to deserve that harshened nth offence sentence.
@Amikke "accident" when the doctors told him not to drive? When he chose to drive a 200,000W, 2,500kg toy?
@algowatching is my automatic translator wrongly translating the “Although some doctors had partially incorrectly or at least incompletely informed the accused about his suitability for driving” part? Sorry, I don’t speak German.
@algowatching and either way, “murder” implies intent. If someone didn’t intend to kill other people then they “killed” them, no matter if by freak accident with no fault of their own or by bad judgement / incompetence / other at fault but unintentional causes.
