Hi all,

felt like translating it, this is hilarious. Seems to be a letter to the 
editor as a reaction to an article by a forensic psychiatrist M. 
Kiesewetter under the title The offender turns himself into a judge 
(there's no indication what the article was about).


I am translating Informatiker as computer scientist/programmer. In 
German Informatiker can be programmers too, among other things. It is 
a generic name for people who have gone to a college or university and 
learned IT stuff, and my dictionary has the first term. Here goes:



Many computer scientists/programmers are perpetrators; they have, e.g., 
committed sexual offenses or are responsible for bloody deeds in their 
own family. It is my opinion that their brains got out of control in IT. 
Everyone knows computer scientists/programmers scientists are utilizing 
coce. This enhances their fantasy, and they can program more efficiently 
and creatively. Therefore it is no miracle when people who can access 
every day and night everything the world has to offer on the internet 
blow their fantasy-fuses. I am convinced we need state control for 
computer scientists/programmers so that possible perpetratorships [sic] 
can be nicked early enough.

Sorry, the mail was forwarded to me by somebody who forwarded it to that 
person...  But the Tagi doesn't have so many Leserbriefe that you wouldn't 
be able to find it, I guess...

 Rough translation:
 
 Many programmers are criminals - they are, for example, guilty of secual
 crime or are responsible for violence in their own families.  In my
 opinion their brains went out of control in their job.  It is well-known
 that programmers use coke.  It enhances their imagination and they can
 program more efficiently and more creatively.  No wonder if people who
 have access to everything that is on offer on the Internet all day long
 lose control over their imagination.  I am convinced that a supervision
 body for programmers is needed to disable potential criminals early on.
   
 Sorry about that.  Back to work now.
 
 cheers
