(1) Calling a politician a dick is vandalism? That's nonsense.

(2) The corresponding prosecutor made clear that his house was raided for calling the politician stupid and NOT for anything else. You would have known that if you would have read the document I linked to. To quote it:

  Wegen des Tatverdachts einer gegen Personen des politischen Lebens gerichteten
  Beleidigung gem. §§ 185, 188, 194 StGB erfolgte am vergangenen Dienstag, 12.11.2024, eine
  richterlich angeordnete Durchsuchung der Wohnung des Beschuldigten durch Polizeibeamte
  der Kriminalpolizei Schweinfurt

Translated to english:

  Due to suspicion of an offence of insulting persons in political life
  pursuant to Sections 185, 188, 194 of the German Criminal Code (StGB), a
  judicially ordered search of the accused's apartment was carried out last Tuesday, November 12, 2024, by police officers
  from the Schweinfurt Criminal Investigation Department.

(3) He is in trouble in terms that there is an police investigation against him and no it is not okay to have police investigations just because a person expressed his worries about migration.

So, yes my links support my assertion.

People will lie in your face about number two even though both the Amtsgericht Bamberg as well as the press have been saying that the arrest was made in a case of 188 StgB for months now.

(1) - there's a photo of a graffiti in the article. But the translation of the article to English doesn't mention the insult was actually painted on a wall...

(1) That is just a symbolic image. The person answered „Du bist so 1 Pimmel“ (english: „You're such a dick“) to a post of the politician on twitter.

According to Wikipedia it was an answer to the following tweet https://twitter.com/AndyGrote/status/1399001436973899780

First article, second paragraph states that the search was ruled illegal.

The one who got in trouble was ultimately the dick, not the one who called him that....

Getting your house raided is trouble/punishment... So no the one that called him a dick also got into trouble.. and obviously such events discourage people from expressing their opinions.
