    There are many lessons of the holocaust for Americans. One of them is to let in people fleeing oppression. Another big one is kill the Nazis

      But it's not legal to kill liberals in the US. Tough to eradicate a scourge of crazy ideologues when most refuse to see them running around

      this is exactly right. We have to consider uncomfortable policies because we didn't take on modern day nazis.

      Killing mass-murdering tyrants early and often sounds good. Maybe those longing to be free ought to free themselves in place.

      a real journalist doesn't advocate belligerent violence & understands statements like that can lead to attacking some group

      Fighting in WWII my father, my uncles and their brothers-in-arms learned this: the only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.

      Another one is to avoid the tarnished reputations of America Firsters like Charles Lindbergh & Joseph P. Kennedy.
