If your religious values hold women in such low esteem that rape
is considered a right for men to exercise casually at their whim,
then keep that religion the fuck out of my country. It deserves to be
discriminated against.

Where is it written that we must accommodate and tolerate any and all
savagery merely because it's done under the imprimatur of religion?

This remains my concern with the elevation of the right of free exercise
of religion in Supreme Court rulings over the last several decades, even
when I agree with the outcome in a case like Mahmoud v. Taylor (2025)
since religion may not respect the right of conscience of everybody
else. I know you disagree.

We needn't even reach those issues because foreign nationals in other
countries do not have a constitutional right to immigrate to the U.S. The
government can decide if and how many immigrants it wants to admit from other
countries and can use virtually any criteria it likes in doing so.

I made comments because you started this very thread in which government
propaganda is attempting to gaslight the public about who committed
specific crimes, and when government was actually confronted with who
the perpetrators were, there was further gaslighting that the crimes
were understandable as a matter of cultural differences based in part on
religion.

I raised examples in United States law with respect to religion because
of my own deep suspicions about not prohibiting free exercise of
religion when said exercise denies third parties freedom of conscience
or the freedom to act.

What the hell does the Immigration and Nationalty Act have to do with
anything? If the conduct in question occurs in the United States, then
our laws apply.

If the civil liberty of freedom of religion trumps enforcement of
criminal law, especially crimes against the person, possibly the foreign
national may be deportable but if he's not prosecuted to the full extent
of the law, it's a miscarriage of justice.

Whether immigration law was violated is a secondary issue. The primary
issue here is failure of the German legal system to seek justice on
behalf of victims, a failure based on an elevated protected status for
the perpetrator and an inferior protected status for the victim.

I don't want foreign nationals who have committed dangerous crimes
deported without first having been prosecuted, convicted, and served a
time of incarceration. If they don't get prosecuted, then they become
eligible to return to your country after deportation and remaining
outside the country for a period of years. That's further outrage.

Prosecution is the only way to make them ineligible to return, even as a
traveller and not an immigrant.
