Germany Is Scrapping Law That Bans Insulting Foreign Leaders
Germany's cabinet says it is scrapping a controversial and little-used law that makes it a criminal offense to insult foreign heads of state, effective Jan. 1, 2018. Justice Minister Heiko Mass said the law is "obsolete and unnecessary," Deutsche Welle reported. He said the concept "dates back to a long-gone era, it no longer belongs in our criminal law."

Can you imagine what they'll have to say after saving it for a year?
