The worst crimes are the ones committed against children. And at the very least, a nation should do everything in its power to protect them. So if a country is going to change the status quo when it comes to possessing child abuse material, you would think it would be to increase the penalty. However, Germany didn’t get the memo and is sympathizing with the worst people in society and has decriminalized the possession of child sexual abuse materials, which was previously a felony.

According to Reduxx:

Germany’s Parliament (Bundestag) has received the votes necessary to remove a section of the Criminal Code which made the possession of child sexual abuse materials a felony crime. Once the bill, passed last Thursday, comes into effect, minimum sentences for the possession of child pornography will be reduced, and the offense will be downgraded to a misdemeanor.

According to the Bundestag, the bill stipulates that “possession and acquisition should be punishable with a minimum penalty of three months’ imprisonment, and distribution with a minimum penalty of six months’ imprisonment, and distribution with a minimum penalty of six months’ imprisonment. The offenses regulated in Section 184b of the Criminal Code are therefore classified as misdemeanors and not as crimes.”

The rationale behind the downgrading of the crime to a misdemeanor included consideration for parents and teachers of children who download the content in order to inform law enforcement. “Such cases have occurred particularly frequently among parents and teachers of older children or young people who found child pornography on them and passed it on to other parents, teachers or the school management to inform them of the problem,” reads Article 1 of the bill.

That doesn’t even make any sense.

If anything, they would have just added that the law isn’t punishable when people are solely downloading the material to inform law enforcement. And why someone would do that also does not make any sense to me, but I digress.

Why are they going to lessen the penalty for bad actors if they claim to want to protect the “good” ones? And even if that’s why they claim it is, it still makes no sense. No court would punish a teacher if all they were doing was trying to report the material to law enforcement.

It's logically equivalent to downgrading the penalties for drug possession because a teacher might find it and turn it in to law enforcement.

What a load of nonsense.

The legislation continues: “A downgrade to a misdemeanor is also urgently required in order to be able to respond appropriately and with the necessary flexibility to the large proportion of juvenile offenders. Here, too, the perpetrators generally do not act in order to be sexually aroused by the child pornography content, but rather out of a drive typical of the adolescent stage of development, such as naivety, curiosity, thirst for adventure or the desire to impress.”

Again, even if this is intended to “respond appropriately and with the necessary flexibility to the large proportion of juvenile offenders” why would they lessen the penalty for the adults?

So while Germany is doing everything in its power to regulate words and thoughts, this is what they condone. This is incomrpehesible.

Why is it so hard for these people to protect children? Why are they actively doing things that would harm them and why don’t they care? Make it make sense.
