08/25/2007: ""Free speech" in the democratic police state"

German police have charged the leader of a far-right political party with inciting racial hatred after he recommended Adolf Hitler's former deputy for the Nobel peace prize.

If convicted of incitement, Voigt could face a jail term of up to three years or a fine, police said.

[ Yes, you have "freedom," whatever that is. ]

Whatever happens to Voigt there will be someone to take his place if he goes to jail. As for the fine... he'll probably have ways to pay for it. Nothing serious by my standards.
