Tierschutzpartei on public safety

The Tierschutzpartei rejects the current border checks as ineffective symbolic politics and wants to end police stops without suspicion and racial profiling. The domestic intelligence agency (Verfassungsschutz) is to be reformed transparently.

The Tierschutzpartei opposes the checks at the borders. It says they achieve little and hold up commuters. Police should not stop people without a reason. The domestic intelligence agency should change and work more openly.

On border checks, the platform cites criticism from the police union: few smugglers caught, heavy staffing demands and hardly any people turned back. Police and courts should cooperate better, and proceedings for petty offenses should move much faster. Police officers are to receive sensitivity training. For the Verfassungsschutz, the party demands a reckoning with right-wing extremism inside the agency.

The Tierschutzpartei wants to ban far-right parties and groups and to prosecute and punish right-wing extremists more firmly. Islamist terrorism is to be fought just as resolutely. Education, prevention and exit programs are to be expanded.

The Tierschutzpartei wants to ban far-right parties and groups. The state should pursue right-wing extremists more strictly. The party also wants to fight Islamist terrorism. People who want to leave extremism should get help. Schools should teach more about the Nazi era.

Exit programs for right-wing extremists would receive more support. Terror networks are to be stopped mainly through targeted and covert measures; campaigns and prevention projects are meant to protect young people from extremist ideologies. Against antisemitism, the party relies on education and awareness-raising. Teaching about National Socialism is to be greatly expanded and backed by funding programs.
