No, I don't know how it works there either. However, I don't believe there is any government in the world where there is no discretion to bring or not bring charges...not even North Korea.SewTexas wrote:I don't know how that aspect of it works over there, do you? I know in the UK they will reduce the charges down to what they know they will get an easy conviction on. I have no idea how things work in Denmark, it may be that they aren't allowed to not bring charges, might be an interesting thing to research, I don't have the time right now though.VMI77 wrote:No, the minimum allowed is not charging her with anything so that punishment isn't even a consideration...unless you're going to tell me that in Denmark every single person that ever gets caught violating the law is always prosecuted and discretion is never applied to any case.SewTexas wrote:allisji wrote:WildBill wrote:It's more like a slap in the face.SewTexas wrote:it's the equivalent to a $100 fine, it's sad, but it's not even a slap on the wrist.

hey, I'm not saying I like it. I'm just saying what it is. I could be wrong, but I think it legally the punishment could be more. I think they gave her the minimum allowed.

No, the minimum allowed is not charging her with anything so that punishment isn't even a consideration...unless you're going to tell me that in Denmark every single person that ever gets caught violating the law is always prosecuted and discretion is never applied to any case.SewTexas wrote:allisji wrote:WildBill wrote:It's more like a slap in the face.SewTexas wrote:it's the equivalent to a $100 fine, it's sad, but it's not even a slap on the wrist.

This is what the left does whenever it gets power. This is exactly what the anti-gun liberals will do here if they ever get the power to do it.
