@regehr @floe @void_friend I learned recently that Germans are actually more litigious than the US! (https://eaccny.com/news/member-news/dont-let-these-10-legal-myths-stop-your-doing-business-in-the-u-s-myths-6-and-7-the-u-s-is-very-litigious-and-that-is-too-threatening-to-a-small-company-like-ours-as-a-result-the-risk/ has a list of the top 5, Germany is number one)
But apparently this is mostly because we love suing the government for issuing wrong parking tickets and stuff and our neighbors for having hedges that are too high.
@floe @void_friend alas, the wrong parts

@regehr Salsa verde is too hot. Dude would be granted instant asylum as a white refugee by the current administration.
