Owning firearms in Germany isn’t really that difficult although you must invest considerably more time and money than in countries like the US. Legally carrying them in public is a whole other story. Unless you work as something like a judge or prosecutor or have some serious death threats against you, the chance of getting a license approved is extremely low.

Germany at a secondary school, grades 5–13:

• from grade 5: Latin (at least 6 years)
• from grade 7: English (at least 4 years)
• from grade 9: French or Ancient Greek (optional)
• from grade 11: Spanish or Italian or Hebrew (optional)

That was about 20 years ago and learning Latin, let alone Ancient Greek, had become the exception even then.

Ich hatte mich schon gewundert, was vorhin los war. Ich musste mehrere DNS-Provider durchprobieren, bis Amazon.de wieder erreichbar war. Andere Seiten waren mir nicht aufgefallen, kann aber sein, dass sonst keine de-Domain dabei war.
