[@GandalfReagge]

as a german, I will try to explain. First, the laws on this were sharpened only a few years ago, and what they are doing now is just rolling part of that change back. The reason for this is mostly what you have mentioned, HLC, but there recently was a big example of this: A teacher learned that explicit material of a minor was shared, and then informed the parents, with proof, so that they can take this to the police and have it dealt with. However, as the law stands, the teacher is now guilty of distributing said material and faces jailtime. Now, obviously they acted with best intentions, and everyone, including the judge, is aware of that. However, unlike american law (from what I understand), here in germany you can't easily make an exception of the rule in such cases. Because the laws were increased those few years ago, the judge was not able to not pass a sentence on this teacher, despite not wanting to, because, the law standing as written, the teacher committed the crime of distributing said material, and that is a proven fact. Now, the idea of this chage (which, as i said, is mostly rolling back the changes made a few years ago), is to lessen the MINIMAL sentences, so that judges have more lee-way in such cases. It does not change anything about the maximum sentences, so anyone caught possessing or distributing said material for nefarious purposes can still be slapped with the same high sentence as currently. That is what this is about, as far as I understand it. I am not a lawyer or anything, so I can't really answer questions to the details though.

[@3X73RM]

Makes a huge amount of sense. Still though, I feel like in grey areas like these, judges should have the authority to just use common sense and "house rules" like in DnD. If something is obviously nonsensical in the situation, just house rule it so it does make sense.

[@logicplague2077]

Thank you for the explanation. I hate legal stuff for this reason, it's usually opposite of common sense, but sadly it has to be this way thanks to losers constantly looking for loopholes and/or over-zealous police looking to bump their arrest numbers(a problem we face here). I've had computer techs tell me if you ever buy like a used laptop, and find similar material on the hard drive, DON'T report it. Just physically destroy the hard drive, because taking it to the police you are technically "in possession" of said material, and it's up to whoever you turn it in to whether or not they charge you. Also, this is one of the biggest reasons Americans don't support gun control laws, because instead of them being used against actual criminals, they tend to be used against law-abiding citizens more often. Just look at how many videos get posted of Glocks with switches on them, they're not getting visits from the ATF, or getting 10-year/$200k fines. You know who does? FFL's and law-abiding citizens over technicalities.

Laws protecting kids are good and all, but here in the states they are usually worded poorly or have vast overreach that doesn't just break the 4th, but takes a nuclear shit all over it as well.

It just seems like a jerk move to try and get those kids labeled as offenders when they are doing it with people their own age (as long as they are consenting and their is no "forced" coercion.)

The point in Germany is that it clogged up our justice system. It's not decriminalizing it, it's setting the possible punishment low enough that the prosecutor can decide not to prosecute someone (as possession is already illegal, you'd also get in trouble for doing things like making a photo of it with your own device as evidence). For the purposes of the law, getting sent that stuff and your phone automatically downloading it is also enough btw. And considering the shit that children sometimes send each other, that is very iffy. Basically yeah, people that wanted to do the right thing ended up charged over it and there was nothing that the prosecutor could do about it. Now the prosecutor can actually differentiate between thode two things. Greetings from someone currently studying to be a teacher who had a seminar about that to protect ourselves from that.

Regarding the change in law in Germany: Your understanding is generally correct. They want to lower the MINIMUM jail time in case of conviction from 12 month down to 3 month without touching the MAXIMUM jailtime. This is done so the process can be settled easier now because it is under the threshold of being a criminal offense and now is a minor offense. It is basically the same with drugs, you find them or get in possesion of them in a way that wasnt intended by you and bring them to a police station, you will automatically get investigated on illegal posession of drugs. It happened to me too after I joined an online secret santa and the dimwitt that send me a package put some speed in it. Point is: A criminal offense ALWAYS has to go to court. A minor offense can be closed before court. They want to speed up the justice system by enabling them to easier close those cases and use the freed up ressources for the real cases.

Not just an offense, but a criminal act with at least one year of improsenment (can be judged ob probation). The problem is, that the record for a criminal act regarding minors NEVER gets deleted, like other records like theft for example. Also the 1 year imprisonment is the limit to remove a person from state jobs, like teacher, police etc. So a few person got criminalized, because their first reaction was to inform the respective parent of the shown child in the "Child sensitive content" to make them aware of the situation their child is in. Now the law shall be changed to not criminialize those people, but still to punish those who share it for other (sick!) reasons.

So like.... How hard is it to instead of get rid of a law entirely, you just modify the current one with an exception to the rule? To protect said parents. How... How hard is that?

[@noobpuncher8571]

Not hard to amend the current law, which is actually what they did. The issue I do have is their softening of the penalties for possession (Used to be 1 year imprisonment and a felony charge, now it's three months and a misdemeanor.) Again, I get why they did what they did. But the truth is they should have made parent-teacher/pastor/whatever clauses instead of reducing the sentencing.

[@Tezunegari]

Germany is not removing that law... they are modifying it because according to the articles, the majority of people charged are minors sending their own images. At this time, the minimum sentence is one year in prison which automatically makes it a felony no matter the circumstances. The modified law would have a minimum sentence of six months, removing the mandatory felony entry in the criminal records and allowing the courts more flexibility to account for the circumstances.

[@RichelieuUnlimited]

@@noobpuncher8571 The solution that was chosen offers flexibility, adding special clauses can cause problems down the line, cause your bound to miss something. Maximum possible sentence remains the same btw, and the change to felony a couple years back was criticized for exactly this reason by professionals (Judges and Prosecutors)

[@snegglepuss6669]

The problem you get is that a lot of people possessing and making cheese pizza are the parents abusing their kids. Germany seems to have gone with idea of letting judges have more discretion, when really it should just be prosecutors exercising discretion when it's strict liability

[@logicplague2077]

When you're talking about legal stuff, usually VERY EFFING HARD. Everything hinges on wording, because you always have people looking for loopholes, and over-zealous police looking to enforce laws even when it isn't in the spirit of why they exist to bump their arrest numbers.

The short answer is it could be seen as disrespectful. The US was one of the largest contributing factors into NATO being formed in 1949. The US also supplies the most funding to NATO , last known estimates was the US gives about 22% of NATOs overall funding. There may also be an issue over the timing as implications for public attention and engagement, as many people might be focused on holiday activities rather than legislative matters.

@@joeclaridy If Europe feels sufficiently threatened I think they would take defense very seriously and change course. They have industry and technology in place. We retooled fairly quickly going into WW2. I think Europe could too. Russia can keep going because they have a stockpile of old material, and they can win and push forward for quite a while, but, long term, outside of nukes and the threat of nukes they don't have the capability to truly recover much less keep going. Ukraine could be Putin's Afghanistan, only more problematic as there's a lot of other elements going on. Russia and Ukraine have changed modern war. Cheap drones. Europe wants in, if only to learn and gain some experience so they're not caught completely flatfooted. Only utopian idealists believe they'll never go to war again. I think there's enough realists in Europe that can balance their liberal, socialist ideals with the reality of the threat of regional thugs.

[@Logank192]

I don't think that's really the point, it's more about the friction that our current president and either future president are causing or will cause with NATO. Biden is a fence sitter and isn't supporting the effort in Ukraine as much as he could be and doesn't want to give access to better NATO weapons for Ukraine's conflict and also doesn't want to treat them as a full member of NATO. Meanwhile, if Trump is elected, he's threatened to leave NATO several times. NATO is a collective of Nations, but the U.S. benefits from it more than the rest by having lined up buyers of equipment and accessibility to bases in other nations for rapid mobility.

[@BlablahKia]

Germany is not decriminalizing it. The current law has a mandatory sentence of 1-10 years which automatically makes it a felony due to the minimum sentence.
