Julius Betschka reported that the Young Union has decided on four immediate measures against R2G in Berlin. These included the political condemnation of a coalition of the SPD and Greens with extremists, the exclusion of the state government from information from the Office for the Protection of the Constitution and the BKA, as well as an immediate ban on socializations through a federal law that should be enforced by means of directive competence. In addition, the Young Union demanded a federal committee to document violations of the law by the Berlin state government. #DLT26 #Berlin #Politik #JungeUnion (translated)

Emanuel Boeminghaus wrote that the French should address social problems with more empathy, sensitivity, and a holistic approach. Targeted social work, appreciative dialogue, and respectful interaction could immediately solve these challenges according to his depiction. Furthermore, the French should ask themselves whether they have done enough for social participation, integration, and solidarity. He ironically traced his advice back to the "world savers." #Empathie #Gesellschaft #Integration (translated)

Yvonne Kussmann wrote that a 23-year-old Indian man snatched a five-year-old boy from his mother on a platform in Wuppertal in April 2018 and jumped in front of a train with him. The child survived the attack without serious injuries. In October 2018, the man was acquitted due to insanity caused by paranoid schizophrenia and placed in a secure psychiatric facility. Kussmann contrasted the diagnosis with the belief in demons like Asuras or Pishachas in India, from whom people might receive commands, including to kill. She stated that the man had been deported after about eight years in the secure facility; various media reported on this. At the same time, she questioned whether Western therapies were meaningful for a man with a different cultural background. Using figures from North Rhine-Westphalia for 2025, Kussmann calculated that among approximately 4,300 detained individuals, costs of 623 million euros had been incurred. This amounts to about 390 euros per person per day. For eight years in the secure facility, this totals just over 1.1 million euros for the man. Kussmann questioned why the man had not been immediately deported instead of being treated at the taxpayers' expense for so long. She noted that he had entered as an asylum seeker, attempted to kill a child, and had never received a punishment for the act. #Asylpolitik #PsychischeGesundheit #Gesellschaftsdebatte (translated)

A good friend moved to a small wine village in Baden-Württemberg a few years ago, sparbuchfeinde wrote. The man is married, has a child, bought a house, and has a company car parked in front of his door. The stories from the village with 800 inhabitants surprised him: As soon as his friend's caravan is parked on the street, a neighbor calls the regulatory office. After returning from vacation, the authority appeared two hours after the caravan was parked to unpack in front of the house. Furthermore, there are already two stationary speed cameras in the village; the municipal council recently approved two more. At the same time, the winemakers have been complaining for years about too few tourists. However, a well-attended party series by one winemaker was discontinued after citizens and other winemakers complained about noise and parked cars, sparbuchfeinde wrote. #BadenWürttemberg #Weindorf #Nachbarschaft (translated)

Kolja Barghoorn wrote that one should not focus solely on criminal law. The Violence Protection Act does not require criminal capacity, which is why, in his opinion, the parents of the victim should immediately obtain interim orders against all perpetrators. Furthermore, a 13-year-old in Germany can also be held civilly liable, for example through claims for compensation and damages, he explained. #Strafrecht #Gewaltschutzgesetz #Zivilrecht (translated)
