Just how sick can Europe get

Police raid against 14-year-old who wrote "All for Germany" on Tiktok

Foreign. On St. Nicholas Day itself, December 6, German police stormed the home of a 14-year-old boy in Bavaria. The reason? The boy had posted the hashtag #allesfürdeutschland on Tiktok - an expression German authorities consider "verboten".

The incident, which Junge Freiheit reports on, has provoked strong reactions. Police consider the post a crime under Section 86a of the German Penal Code, which prohibits symbols and expressions linked to illegal organizations.

The phrase "Alles für Deutschland" (all for Germany) is considered banned in Germany, citing its alleged use by the SA.

The boy, who runs the Tiktok account "deutscher.patriot1161", defends himself by saying he did not know the expression was banned. However, the police considered him "mature enough" to understand the seriousness of his actions and searched the house to secure evidence.

During the raid, both the boy's and his older brother's rooms were searched, where the police confiscated, among other things, a mobile phone and documents.

The family is now considering taking legal action against the authorities. Neither brother has previously appeared in the police register.

The police action has become part of a wider debate in Germany, where the authorities have increased the number of crackdowns on people who express themselves critically or use prohibited symbols on social media.

At the same time, proposals to further tighten the punishment for statements that are considered offensive to those in power are being discussed. Germany already has a special law that makes it illegal to insult politicians.

The incident is reminiscent of a previously noticed judgment against AFD leader Björn Höcke, who was sentenced to a fine last spring for having used the same expression at an event.
