@janonymous @Kaboom The headline is accurate.
Harassment is not worse than rape, the rapists should be facing more time than the person they raped.
I never said harassment was worse. In the first sentence I agree with OP's statement.
However, the reason most of the assailants are not in jail is not because their crime wasn't worse, it's because they are minors. The 19 year-old assailant got 2,5 years jail-time and no probation. The others got between 0,5 and 2 years on probation, which is arguably worse than 3 days in jail.
So, no the headline is not accurate.
Edit: I just reread your post... you think the victim got jail time over harassing her assailants?! That's what these rage-bait headlines do. It's not about what actually happened. It's about triggering the preconceptions of the consumers and pushing them farther into the extremes.
@janonymous The headline is accurate. Remember, this is what it says:
> GERMANY: Woman Convicted Of “Offending” Migrant Gang Rapists Receives Longer Prison Sentence Than The Rapists - The Publica
What makes it accurate is whether or not it is true, whether or not it says what you want it to say. So long as the woman got a longer prison sentence than the rapists, which she did, than it is accurate.
But she did not? She got 3 days, while the 19-year-old assailant got 2,5 years. I get the feeling you don't read what I'm writing so this is my last response.
@janonymous Ahhhhhh I see. Yes, you are right.
wow
@squid_slime
Is it that rare for people to admit when they're wrong on the internet?
yes but also how reactionary people are with reading only the title, completely ignoring the correspondence corrections although credit where credits due
Every other rapist got zero
