Dear Mr Vosskuhle,

Dear Mr Vosskuhle,
My daughter and I, her father, would like to call on you. We are writing in English, so that a wider audience can be reached. Please allow us to first introduce ourselves briefly. I've lived a long time in South Asia, my home, and my now 19-year-old daughter has been born there by her Asian mother. So according to the rather crude German nomenclature, surprisingly coined by the Federal Statistical Office, she counts as a 'migrant'. Segregating people has always been a historically proven domain of the Germans.
In all those years in Asia we have been living peacefully among Hindu, Muslim, Buddhists and people of other beliefs. Nobody took exception to our clothing or looks. Strangely though, on coming to Germany we did not experience that 'Arcadia' feeling a famous German poet had back then. We are absolutely lost for words, in the literal sense, how a subject like a headscarf can get a people so agitated and become a matter of the highest court.
Allow us to come to the point. We are being terrorized by the government agency Jobcenter Munich. Terrorized by infringing on our right to free speech, freedom of press culminating in frivolous law suits including computer confiscation and blackmail by demanding the takedown of a blogpost or face a penalty payment of € 10,000.00 (ten thousand).
All this with the implicit intent of our total financial ruin because I write a critical blog about Hartz IV, a neo-liberal economic regime that is indirectly responsible for all that ails the eurozone: high unemployment in general, extremely high unemployment among the youth and thus wrecking the future of these people, crippling economies in the southern states, high suicide rates in Greece, a country that Germany is hell-bent on destroying. Yet again Germany is true to its history, bringing poverty and destruction upon the European countries via a low-wage war.

My daughter is being hindered by this nefarious, criminal and racist government agency in every conceivable way to finish her high-school diploma. In all this, the Munich court shows again its blatant disregard for basic human rights established in the basic law of Germany.
The Jobcenter Munich filed a criminal charge against me for posting the famous Merkel-Nazi image showing her with a swastika on my blog on the occasion of the Athens demonstrations in 2012. A picture that has been published by all major media companies in Germany without any legal charge being incurred.
The Munich court happily went along and decreed ALL our IT equipment to be confiscated. Me and my daughter were to be deprived of all access to the internet.
After I finally lost my case due to a court-appointed lawyer who displayed an utter and complete neglect and in addition her late mailing of the verdict on purpose, I filed a constitutional complaint nevertheless.
The response from your office left me and my daughter in absolute surprise. It is completely incomprehensible to us how an image that has been displayed by all major media companies in Germany is deemed a crime when a blogger displays it.
Me and my daughter are lost for words when your office suggested in the response to my constitutional complaint with file # AR 2305/15 and dated April 21, 2015:
"You are asked to verify your legal opinion."
We consider this advise to be alarming and highly questionable. With due respect, as a liberalist I intend to stay with my legal opinion!
Since the Jobcenter Munich engaged in yet another assault on our right to free speech and press censorship in May 2014 when it filed another criminal charge against me for posting a Himmler image with swastika in a blogpost, dealing with the heinous attempt of a Jobcenter staff to illegally demand to see my daughter's mid-term marks sheet, expressing in the same communication his doubt of her passing the school year and in a typical display of this racist government agency's conduct in having the indecency of suggesting she might need additional private lessons without ever having seen her, let alone know her.
Not content with this, this person suggested his help to sign up with the jobs portal of the Federal Employment Agency when my daughter had still a minimum of one and a half years to go in school. The Himmler image was shown together with a very pertinent quote of this Nazi about schooling for kids. Yet again, the Munich court of Bavaria, a court that in full knowledge counted a Neo-Nazi among its judges for a year in 2013/14 until this was disclosed by the local newspaper, went happily along.
This despite the fact that NS pictures with swastikas are displayed in German media galore and German TV just loves to show NS documentaries every week and in a latently glorifying way. The first verdict was for 5 months prison on probation of three years. This was reduced this May to a fine of € 1,400.00. It is apparent, critical bloggers need to be wiped out in Germany.
Let us conclude by saying that I feel unsafe about the well-being of my daughter in Germany. We are now actively pursuing to apply for asylum for my daughter overseas.
When government agencies engage in undemocratic conduct, use coercion based on the severest financial pressure, break laws on a continuous basis and are being protected in this by one of Germany's most questionable courts, when German ministries show an utter disregard in all this, then the citizenship of this country is not desirable anymore. My daughter will never call Germany her home.
