I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

It's a pretty transparent attempt by the SPD to try and get some of that Grüne/FDP thunder after they were the first to come out with gay marriage as a coalition requirement, but as long as it finally gets done I'm not gonna complain. :shobon:

Today is the last day I can cancel my Vodafone Mobilfunk Vertrag, so I call Vodafone if they can offer me a good deal.

Me: Hi, so I'm thinking about kündigen, but I will verlängern if you can offer me a free Galaxy S8 with a €40-€50 monthly fee, like I can get at O2, Telekom, simfinity, etc.

Voda: we can offer you a free galaxy s8 for a monthly fee of €75.

Me: ehm okay I guess then I guess I'll cancel and move to another carrier but thanks.

Voda: but wait, did you really think this true? We can offer you a €60 a month Vertrag with an S8 for €100 Zuzahlung!

Me:.... But, it's literally much cheaper at all the other carriers I just mentioned. With free phone.

Voda: yeah... But you have three months left with us, and who knows what they will charge then!!! Also don't forget costs for Nummer behalten usw.

Me: you are still much more expensive if I factor that in.

Voda: yeah... I guess you'll have to make that decision yourself.

Me: uhm yeah lol. Anyway thanks und schönen Tag *cancels Vodafone Vertrag* :feelsgood:

Hamburg schmeisst Berliner Polizisten raus

Nach »Sex in der Öffentlichkeit« und »Urinieren in der Öffentlichkeit« müssen mehrere Hundertschaften die Hansestadt vorzeitig verlassen

Offenbar scheinen bei einem Teil der in Hamburg stationierten Polizisten die Nerven bereits blank zu liegen. Zumindest die Berliner Hundertschaften wurden bereits vorzeitig wieder aus der Hansestadt abgezogen, da es in ihrer Unterkunft ein »Fehlverhalten« gegeben haben soll. Dies erklärte die Berliner Polizei selbst am Dienstagmorgen über ihren Twitteraccount. »Wir haben Stellungnahmen angefordert und werden anschließend über Konsequenzen entscheiden«, heißt es weiter in der Meldung.

Ein Polizeisprecher, der seinen Namen nicht genannt haben will, bestätigte gegenüber »nd« Vorwürfe nach »Sex in der Öffentlichkeit«, »Urinieren in der Öffentlichkeit« sowie den »Tanz einer Beamtin im Bademantel mit einer Waffe auf dem Tisch«. Die betroffenen Hundertschaften wären in einem »Containerdorf« untergebracht gewesen.

Die linksradikale Berliner Gruppe »TOP«, die auch zu den Protesten gegen den G20-Gipfel mobilisiert, zeigte in sozialen Netzwerken Humor. Dort erklärte sie: »Nein, wir haben kein Problem mit Polizist*innen die an Zäune urinieren und Sex in der Öffentlichkeit haben. Denn dabei verprügeln sie immerhin keine Leute oder schieben Menschen ab.«

Laut einem Bericht der »BZ-Berlin« soll es sich bei den Einheiten um die 14., 15., und 32. Einsatzhundertschaften handeln. Seit vergangenem Sonntag seien sie in der Hansestadt im Dienst gewesen, am Montagabend wären sie dann aus dem Einsatz zurückgezogen worden.

Die Polizisten seien nach Informationen der Zeitung aufgrund ihrer Feiervorliebe »bewusst« in einer ehemaligen Asylbewerberunterkunft untergebracht worden. Der Ordnerdienst sei angewiesen gewesen, jeden Verstoß zu dokumentieren. Die Wachschützer hätten dann später beobachtet, wie ein »Polizistenpärchen in aller Öffentlichkeit Sex an einem Zaun« hatte. Beamte hätten zudem nach einer »lautstarken Party gemeinsam in einer Reihe an einen Zaun uriniert«. Eine Kollegin habe »nur in einem Bademantel mit einer Waffe in der Hand« auf dem Tisch getanzt.

Die Polizisten hätten ihr Verhalten damit gerechtfertigt, dass es »keine Fernseher, kein Freizeitangebot« gegeben habe. Man habe »aufeinander gehockt« und sich »gelangweilt«.

Nach »B.Z.-Informationen« wusste der Hamburger Polizeiführer Hartmut Dudde bereits aus der gemeinsamen Zeit während des Castor-Einsatzes in Gorleben, wie exzessiv die Berliner außerhalb des Dienstes »feiern« würden.

Vom 7. bis zum 8. Juli sollen fünf neue Hundertschaften aus der Hauptstadt in Hamburg im Einsatz sein. Zu der Frage, ob diese nach dem Bekanntwerden der aktuellen Vorwürfe ein weiteres Briefing erhalten, wollte sich der Polizeisprecher gegenüber »nd« nicht äußern.

Bereits 2014 erlangte die mittlerweile aufgelöste 23. Berliner Hundertschaft unrühmliche Bekanntheit, nachdem nach einer Feier ein fragwürdiges Video aufgetaucht war. Die Bilder zeigten unter anderem Beamte in Dessous, die inszenierte Versteigerung eines »Autonomen« sowie simulierten Oralverkehr mit einem Mann, der einen Turban trägt und später mit einer Pistole am Kopf abgeführt wurde.

In der internen Kommunikation von Beamten, die dem SPIEGEL vorliegt, heißt es, die aus Hamburg verbannten Bereitschaftspolizisten sollten in Berlin angeblich mit einer Willkommensparty ihrer Kollegen empfangen werden.

Bilder der Unterkunft wiederum zeigen eine feiernde Menge zwischen Wohncontainern, einzelne Beamte recken grölend ihre Arme in die Luft. Auch scheinen die Berliner Polizisten mehrere Wasserpfeifen in die Unterkunft mitgebracht zu haben. Fotos, die offenbar am Morgen nach der Feier entstanden sind, dokumentieren die Intensität der Party: Stühle wurden zu Haufen aufgetürmt, Flaschen, Dosen und Müll liegen zwischen den Unterkünften.

Or almost every European county south or east of Germany.

But given the polls it's a good idea to get rid of the topic before the election.

Unless Heiko Maas screws up the draft law and accidentally does not make the rules governing non-Germans marrying under German law apply to same sex marriages.

Which I'd totally expect him to do, because he is extremely terrible at drafting laws.

Germany like other European countries took the civil union sidestep, which was rather forward back in the day, but looks quaint when others now leap you with full equality.

It's less about some accidental oversight in drafting a law that passes gay marriages, and more about GaussianCopula literally hoping that real people (who post in this thread, no less) in real relationships get their marriage annulled because of his incredibly petty and narrowminded partisan biases. This isn't a loving game, these are people's lives, and I take being flippant about it very personally.
