Proof in what exact way you were afraid, confused or frightened. Did you fear bodily harm? What made you think that? Did the intruder move to attack you? Did they notice you?

The law is written such that you need to prove innocence, that is, the existence of these effects. If you cannot prove you felt this way you are guilty.

as any reasonable person in this situation would

That is not sufficient. It is always scary to be put into a situation where the need to self defence arises. You must prove your terror was exceptional.

According to law student material of a university:

The asthenic affect [confusion, fear fright] must be of such severity that the perpetrator is able to process the events only to a significantly reduced extent.

  • You're absolutely right, liberation is when queer people are criminalized at the wishes of other neocolonial power rather than established neocolonial power.

    The workers are finally free to get rid of the bourgeoisie degenerates that were invented by the West to destabilize the nation.

    Niger is literally the very first country in the world to criminalize asexuality. It couldn't have been normally ignored at any prior point in history.

    Besides, this is more about Niger tightening relations with Russia. Part of their military agreement is aligning society with "Russian values".

    No country on this planet is interested in regular colonialism anymore by the way. It's all neocolonialism which in this specific case is fairly obvious Russian neocolonialism. Western neocolonialism occurs in other African countries.

    In Germany it's literally illegal to sleep with a gun under your pillow as you are violating gun storage laws. This already makes your claim to self defense very murky. Because why are you breaking the law in the first place?

    It could be argued you intended in advance to shoot whoever entered your home which would then constitute murder.

    § 34 StGB Justifiable Emergency.

    Anyone who, in the face of an imminent and unavoidable danger to life, physical integrity, liberty, honor, property, or another legally protected interest, commits an act to avert the danger from themselves or another person does not act unlawfully if, upon weighing the conflicting interests—namely, the legally protected interests involved and the degree of danger threatening them—the protected interest substantially outweighs the interest that is impaired. This applies, however, only to the extent that the act is a reasonable means of averting the danger.

    The right to personal property never substantially outweighs the interest of another person to stay alive. You must be (about to be) attacked to be able to resort to a gun.

    I don't think you understand how different Android and Linux distributions truly are.

    Linux alone refers to the kernel. There are custom AOSP kernels based on the Linux LTS versions with a few extra patches but that is basically all that connects Linux to Android.

    But absolutely everything in userland is wholly diifferent in Android than with any Linux distribution out there.

    And you can't just replicate what Android did on top of the Linux kernel without Google amounts of resources. Which GrapheneOS does not have in the slightest.

    If we want to go into technicalities:

    The internationally accepted definition of what constitutes a genocide is quite limited and certainly not identical to what is colloquially interpreted as genocide. The same way murder is distinct from manslaughter.

    Serbia was found not guilty of committing genocide by the ICJ in the Yugoslav wars for instance. Serbia did commit various crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing (primarily by way of deportation) but this was not found to be genocide.

    Most scholars believe genocide (as defined under the Genocide Convention) refers exclusively the "physical-biological destruction of a protected group".

    Just look at a couple excerpts from this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosnian_genocide

    In the case of Prosecutor v. Krstić (2 August 2001), the ICTY ruled "customary international law limits the definition of genocide to those acts seeking the physical or biological destruction of all or part of the group. Hence, an enterprise attacking only the cultural or sociological characteristics of a human group in order to annihilate these elements which give to that group its own identity distinct from the rest of the community would not fall under the definition of genocide".

    On 14 January 2000, the ICTY ruled in the Prosecutor v. Kupreškić and Others case that the Lašva Valley ethnic cleansing campaign in order to expel the Bosnian Muslim population from the region was persecution, not genocide per se.

    Though under some nation's law, such as Germany, the definition of genocide is more broad:

    However, the ECHR highlighted that the German court's ruling, based upon German domestic law, had interpreted the crime of genocide more broadly than and in a manner since rejected by international courts.[52] Under the wider definition that the German judiciary upheld, the ethnic cleansing carried out by Jorgić was a genocide because it was an intent to destroy the group as a social unit, and although the majority of scholars took the view that German genocide law should interpret genocide as the physical-biological destruction of the protected group, "a considerable number of scholars were of the opinion that the notion of destruction of a group as such, in its literal meaning, was wider than a physical-biological extermination and also encompassed the destruction of a group as a social unit"

    Tl;dr: It's only genocide when it comes from the genocide region, else it's just sparkling ethnic cleansing.

    Kontext:

    Der Hitzerekord in Deutschland wurde erneut gebrochen: Laut den vorläufigen Daten des Deutschen Wetterdiensts (DWD) wurden in Saarbrücken-Burbach um 15 Uhr 41,4 Grad gemessen. An der Wetterstation war bereits am Freitag die bisherige Allzeit-Höchstmarke von 41,2 Grad eingestellt worden.

    Nach den vorläufigen Daten des DWD hielt der Hitzerekord aus Saarbrücken nur kurz. Wie ein Sprecher des Wetterdiensts der Nachrichtenagentur AFP sagte, wurde an der Messstation in Drewitz im Jerichower Land in Sachsen-Anhalt gegen 16.30 Uhr eine Temperatur von 41,5 Grad verzeichnet.

    Eine Person steht in der Mitte des Bildes und schaut nach vorne mit Schrift "Saarbrücken, 15:00 Uhr". Wenige Centimeter dahinter, ohne dass es die vordere Person ahnt, steht eine größere Person mit Schrift "Drewitz, 16:30".
     

    Vielen Dank an Daniel Born, der der AfD einen Bärendienst erwiesen hat.

    Wie kommt ein Politiker überhaupt auf so eine blöde Idee? Leidet die SPD auch noch unter chronischer Kurzsichtigkeit neben den Magenbeschwerden?

    Ohne Verschwörungstheorien zu verbreiten würde ich mir mal wünschen, dass sein Konto kontrolliert wird. Sein Verhalten ist ja beinahe eine zu perfekte Ausrede für sämtliches Naziverhalten von AfDlern.
