    Don’t forget he instituted torture methods as minister of the interior for Hamburg. Shortly before an election, trying to win by occupoying there their points. That failed of course.
    Similarities to the current tactics by him are of course purely coincidental.

      True, Brechmitteleinsatz shall never been forgotten. They even tortured a person to death with it. He was called Achidi John.

      He violently resisted the insertion of a feeding tube to introduce the emetic ipecacuanha, whereupon he was restrained. John was then “force-fed the drug through a tube in his nose.”[4][5] “An emergency anesthesiologist was not called to assist.”[3] He then “fell to the floor,”[3] “facial color had changed, breathing and pulse had stopped.”[3] The physician initially assumed he was faking. When a medical student noticed the missing pulse, emergency responders were called. After thirteen minutes, two emergency medical teams arrived and resuscitated John.[6][7] John died after a three-day coma on December 12, 2001
