What I do not understand

Is that a country that puts the most hilarious warnings on products to avoid litigation, apparently has no problems with politicians straight out lying. You cannot in Europe try or even think about it to defame with lies!?!?! Most of our Union throws your ass in jail even showing a Swastika. Or giving Sieg und Heil (Something American wannabe Nazi s do not even comprehend!) It is not Sieg heil what Hitler said. It was Sieg und Heil! The devil is in the details. I come from a worn down family. In WW1 mij great grandfather amassed 7 front stripes. A front stripe in the Belgian army is awarded for every 6 months you are actually at the frontline. 7 is to this day the highest number. In WW2, my great uncle got out in the miracle of Dunquerke and came back with the hogs. It started with Brigade Piron where he broke his back during the parachute. But he kept on fighting. Les Sangliers! Belgians elite ! Of which of course as family traditions go, I belong to. What I just want to say. What is happening in the US where I lived, not even 1% would be allowed without getting your ass getting dragged to court, or your jaw broken. We lived hell! 2 Times! Never ever! Going back!
