    If systemic racism is there then it could lead to a similar fate.

    do you think a white guy trying to knock out innocent black women and elderly folks should just get a hand slap?

    This is where racism within government can have a serious impact on the welfare of youth.

    "if" . And I think you can still argue that it still wouldn't be remotely comparable. Plenty of banana republics currently exist and still don't compare to nazi germany.

    Find me a case and I'll look at it. Each case should be approached independently

    Mine was one of the liberated, so hats off to your grandpa. He only talked about it when he had too much Cutty Sark.

    ah, so you don't want to give a general statement if the violent attacker is white, got it - the cases are the same, race does not mater

    Never forget (Jim crow). We can easily go back there, just look at Israel today, living hell for Arabs.

    It's still insane that it even took place. We've really dumbed down the true nature of the holocaust, imo, by comparing so many things to it that have no business being compared. It's lessened the understanding of the holocaust by youngers today, imo.

    so the race of the violent assaulter matters to you?

    any example of this is the same, regardless of the races involved

    doesn't matter if the races are reversed, you just imagine the races are reversed, should be the same sentence regardless

    I brought up oppressive regimes like the founding fathers of USA and Nazi Germany as an example of how the legal system can be exploited to disenfranchise an entire ppl. You are using that as a platform to discuss the Holocaust. Unless you are comparing contemporary USA to the Holocaust then I'd suggest you're going off topic.

    You brought up Nazis and called it "off topic" when people engaged in the subject that YOU introduced. Just make up your mind, dude. YOU were the one who compared the USA to Nazis. YOU. YOU made that comparison. Now you are saying that it is off topic to talk about that. Jeezy Creezy.
