While that may be right, what good is it to have the concept of a well-fortified Democracy with laws aimed to prevent exactly what's happining right now and then not use it! The whole "The NPD shouldn't be banned, because it's to insigificant" and "The AfD can't be banned because it's to big" arguement is so bloody stupid.
If a party does break laws, and I'd say the AfD does so plenty, then they should be banned. Everything else makes a mockery of the whole state. Not to mention that it's also very dangerous.
To quote Erich Kästner:
It's high time to fight the AfD with the necessary vigor now! And that requires all parties to stand together. But of course the fucking conservatives again play right into the hand of the Facists.
