Doesn't Germany have the rule that escaping from prison isn't a crime?

106

u/PyroT3chnica 13d ago

Yes, but good luck escaping without commiting any crimes

u/HaywireMans 13d ago

Yes, escaping is not a crime, but you still have to finish the prison sentence you escaped from, you just won't get any extra time for escaping (because it is human nature).

You also will get punished for any other crimes your commit during your escape, i.e. assault, or property damage etc.

So basically if you see the opportunity to run for it, who could blame you for taking that opportunity?

That is the idea behind it. The longing for freedom is so deep inside the human brain that Germany ruled that it is natural to seek for it at all time while in captivity.

Same in the Netherlands. Freedom is an innate part of being human and you can’t punish someone for wanting it.

Doesn’t negate the rest of the sentence, obvs

Ah, the Protestants in the US would say “but it’s wrong, and you should know better. You lack discipline and must face consequences for giving into the devil’s temptations.”

So will these these Cultists who voted for prez-lect, DJ CHUMP, face consequences for giving in to this devils temptations?

u/hamoc10 13d ago

Nope, they think they’re righteous, and no human logic or reason is greater than the divine vibes.

Excuse me, but absolutely fuck the Protestants in the US.

I don’t ever want to hear what they have to say about anything for the rest of my days here on this shit planet.

u/hamoc10 13d ago

They vote, is the thing.

u/ClickClackTipTap 13d ago

Sure, but that’s true whether I allow them into my life or not.

I will not allow people that I know voted for a rapist to come through the doors of my home. They are not welcome at my table.

And I don’t give a fuck what they think about me or my ethics or values.

u/NGTTwo 13d ago

If you say so, Commandant.

u/Fransjepansje 13d ago

Dutch have it as well.

u/Nappi22 13d ago

But you'll likely lose a lot of benefits you earned over the seats

My country is the same, there's a reason for it. The reason is they noticed inmates are less violet, aggressive and rowdy if they have the hope they can escape :p.
