Oh how I wished this was satire, but its real LMAO. Really? You’re gonna throw someone in jail just because they called you “fat”?
That’s real fa(t)cism.

First, the BKA is no GeStaPo like the American ICE. It’s more like the FBI, but more professional.
On the other hand, this is a normal request for identification of a potential defendent in a criminal case. They have reason to assume the person is German, and public diffamation (not only of politicians, this applies to anyone) is a crime.
If they want to arrest someone for calling a politician fat, They are WORSE THAN ICE! That’s not professional at all. A professional does not get deterred by random internet comments calling them fat.
And I don’t care what the laws are in Germany. They can make how many ever useless ass laws they want, doesn’t change what is morally right/wrong.
If it had been only that, this would not have happened. The BKA is a very professional police force. So there must have been way more. And this has nothing to do with her being a politician (except maybe for the reasons of the perpetrator).
But it is the law here. This is not America. And that is good, looking at what is happening there. Which could not happen here.
What you might think to be morally right or wrong. The world is not America. Thank goodness for that.
The first sentence of the German “Grundgesetz” (Constitution) is “Die Würde des Menschen ist unantastbar”: Human dignity is inviolable. Think about it.
