Social media users circulated a video of German police chasing a child carrying a Palestinian flag during a pro-Palestinian protest in Berlin.Activists state...
TFW you support Israel so much that you start treating Palestinian children just like they do.
According to the police the kid was being chased and secured for his own safety because he was unsupervised at the event. He was returned to the father.
How is this reasonable, they’re traumatizing the kid why exactly? 10 year olds are out on their own all the time in Germany and aren’t being chased by police.
Do you have a source? I couldn’t find anything about the situation outside of middle eastern news sites talking about Germany being in the wrong side of history & backlash because of the video.
Gegen 18 Uhr wurden Einsatzkräfte auf einen Jungen aufmerksam, der zuvor offenbar ohne Begleitung an der Versammlung teilgenommen hatte. Aufgrund der noch andauernden polizeilichen Maßnahmen im Nachgang der Versammlung wurde der Elfjährige zu seinem eigenen Schutz in Obhut genommen. Sein Vater wurde benachrichtigt, der ihn circa 90 Minuten später abholte.
Translated by me:
At about 6:00 PM officers noticed a boy attending the event clearly unsupervised. Because of police activity after the event the 11-year-old was taken into police protection. His father was notified and he took the boy with him after 90 minutes.
This video doesn’t even show why the child is getting chased.

Well, that’s… unexpectedly reasonable.

How dare you ruin this perfect moment of outrage with reason.

Source is the police, here is the Link to the news ticker
Here’s the relevant part as a screenshot:
Translated by me:
yeah, maybe „he hit a police women with the pole“ (was in the youtube comments) Dont know how illegal it is to have a palestinian flag with you.
If the Palestinian flag is illegal then all the more reason to fly it. They just want to live free and unoppressed.
Yeah that 10 year old had it coming.
That’ll teach him to fly illegal flags, hope he gets hard labour otherwise society is doomed.
In the western country where I live, riot cops don’t chase kids like that.
Now I’m torn between:
A) riot cops ignore kid
B) riot cops fire 40mm “non-leathal” whatever at kid, killing them instantly
He’s ten, flip him the bird and watch him tire himself out.
