Deniz K or, how unlawfull is self defense?

Link for all those who like to read in german: Indymedia article

For all of those who are just here to look for something to hate, here is my story.

as few know, I was on a demonstration in my home town of Nuremberg lately. Beautifull , a bit loud, and disorganised.

I admit it, i was only there for the leering on scantly clad female activists, but whatever.

So, the demonstration is kept away from the inner city. Strange, because the theme of the demonstration was, „Nazistrukturen bekämpfen, Verfassungschutz abschaffen, Antifa in die Offensive!“, which roughly translates to "Battle national socialist structures, abolish the constituitional protection agency( roughly translated, the same as the secret service in britan), and Antifascists go in the offensive.

Not something that is disagreeable....

No, what is disagreeable, is that it was reccently revealed that the very same agency, who was originally created to protect us from the communist threat, has deccided to get creative, and fund their own threat. Yes, it's right, apparently the Verfassungs schu8tz, a secret service of the interior, has funded people, who used that money to build an organisation which is now classified as terrorist.

Clever, huh? Well, it gets better.

Also, despite the appearance, the very same secret service was at its begfinning so full of the very same people that the US could get who were against Commies:
Yes, right, it was full of nazis.

SWo, the situation as the demonstration saw it?
An organisation full of old nazis, who were founded to fight communist takeovers, funds nazis that fund an orgtanisation that kills in  terrorist acts several immigrants. The nazis were also the ones who had to find out who did the murders originally, and all they could come up with was " other immigrants". Sounds convincing, amirite?

Now, the city, on close advice of the police and that very same organisation, keeps a close eye on leftists.
I have to say, I am not really against it, because I hate commies too, but I mean, really close eye.
Like, dropping kinowledge of police documents in the hands of Nazis, using Nazi ressources to identify leftists, and worst of all, arresting leftists for all the wrong reasons. Like, writing with chalk on a sidewalk.

Oh, and they managed to not drop a hint on a case a few years back, where a known nazi allmost killed a leftist a few days before the first of may demonstrations.

So, understandably, the people were agitated.

Wait, it gets better.

Now, the police around here are not shy in any way form or shape to get as militant as they come.
So, when the leftists take a demonstration, the police shows up in full riot gear.

With that in mind, here is the rest of what happened.

the city disagreed to lket the demonstration through the inner city, citing a demonstration of animal rights activists as a cause.
Valid, because the leftists are known to be a mob of frenzied wolverines, but a few tree huggers?


So, as we were marching along on the demonstration, a few people want to try to bhreak out, and get to the inner city.

Bad Idea.

The cops had anticipatred it, and closed in on them, billy clubs raised like fly swatters.

Now, I am not against a good old ruffle with the police. If you know whatr comes, and they know that there is trouble, it is only valid and just that there is blood.

What disturbs me is that Denis Z was reccently arrested, because of that.
Now, why? Because, according to the article, he was wielding a stick, no broader then 2 cm, of wood, and hitting the police with it.

Now, let me repeat that.
AN OFFICER, who at the time was in FULL RIOT gear, WHICH INCLUDES A HELMET, anmd who was busy bashing in the skulls of teenagers, so severely that the demonstration had to stop and wait for an ambulance, claims that a teenager, wearing only a soft woolen hat and normal clothing, raised a stick and tried to kill him.
That is right, KILL him.

Now, I would like to include a question here.
What kind of punishment do the policemen get for bashing in the heads of children no older then 17?
because as I counted, there were at least 12 severely hurt children there, stumbling back out of that alley, holding heads full of blood.
Will they get drawn, quartered, and their families sold into slavery? Will their hands and genitals get chopped off?
Because, and maybe it is just me, if a cop is allowed to smack the unprotected heads of children with billyclubs, and a child has the guts to defend himself, nevermind that self defense is legal in our country, then shouldn't the punishment for the cops be bigger then the punishment for civillians? I mean, a stick on the head, what does it leave? A dent in the helmet? A smudge on the bullet proof visor?

And that is what you call attempted manslaughter?

Now, as the first of may returns, and Deniz is still in prison, awaiting trial, I cannot help but think.
Last year, the riots were severe.
This year, as word is spreading, and people are organising in solidarity, it will be a very interesting first of may.
I hope there will be no deaths.

But I know that there will be blood.
