Tame? Perhaps so. I suppose I've heard more extreme statements.
No need to be sorry. I'm not persuaded by nor calling for a ban. And you're right. At this moment a ban seems highly unlikely. I think I'm okay with this. Best regards.
My two cents (not living in Germany): I think persecution is fuel for these types of parties. It helped Trump in the US. He was nearly dead and buried politically before he was indicted. I suspect the ban on Le Pen will not hurt her party and may help it. We have to be courageous and confident enough in democracy to fight this out at the polls. These people end up discrediting themselves if given the chance.
These statements are fairly tame for a right-wing party? A ban isn't happening, sorry. Dobrindt has made this clear.

I feel ya! Maybe I ought to be more confident in the triumph of democracy. I used to be. Cheers.
