2. WOW - a loaded question if I ever heard one.

In 12 years, under the cover of much darkness and terror more evil was committed then...
My Dad at age 28, in 1938, (he was a minister, had a smidgen of clout from being just simply shot) exited the Nazi party saying in a letter to them that he thinks they will pursue the harming of the Jewish people and he cannot be part of that.
From then on he was hounded, and had to hide.

Why didn't they stop the Nazis in 1933? It was a matter of life or even more death...plus you had to recognize what was happening, or project what was likely to happen. Not exactly a cake walk in 1933 Germany.

And your saying "failed to immigrate" is loaded as well. Did they recognize the threat and try? Or were they unable to because they were not allowed to by the US? It wasn't that simple.

Coming to the America of today:
Why don't we stop the people undermining our Democracy?
Who under the guise of wanting less government spending just wasted 24 billion of money in the last 2 and a half weeks that could have fed the children.
