They don't know what an actual Nazi is either, they seem to think it's anybody that doesn't agree with them and their ideals

One of my grandmother's best friends was a Holocaust survivor. My grandmother never understood why Hattie wouldn't say a single word about it. A Veteran would understand why. Survivors of assault understand, too. Some things are too awful to recount. I still know people who had family that lived it. Horrific. We should never forget! I went to a cemetery in Prague where Hilter had a whole section of the city set aside for Jews he allowed to live "normally". He kept them like zoo animals that he was making extinct. He was literally preserving them alive as an exhibit to what he was wiping out. Their cemetery had people buried standing upright 10-deep because there was not room to lay them flat. I could go on about it. Maybe I'll write an article at some point about why I came home from Europe very different. It's why I relate to Veterans so much. Worldview. Most Americans these days have none. Been here too long. If an immigrant is worth anything, it's their burning desire to live here. To be willing to die just to GET here, empty-handed. that's patriotic.

that is a sad comment. those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it. I know that's not how the saying goes, but it is true.
