It wasn’t only the Jews, Jo. The Gypsy’s, Intellectually challenged, Homosexuals and anyone else who Didn’t qualify donated their Shoes and Gold teeth. I’m not a hater but I reckon it helps to have some knowledge of the history, leading up to and about this particular event. The extermination of unsavoury types (at that time and in that place) didn’t happen because one person/small group had the sheets with this section of their community. It’s not that simple. To think that only 1930’s Germany could “manipulate “ their citizens into accepting the slavery and extermination of the Jews and the many other people who qualified is a sign of tunnel vision. There were plenty of German people who understood and did their best to help those who were “designated for liquidation”,. There’s only one reason why the majority of German people ignored (didn’t know) about this heinous crime. They didn’t know or they were just happy to believe what they read in their newspapers. We all would like to believe that our elected officials are looking after our best interests but back in the 1930’s in Germany, obviously there were a lot of salesmen selling Bridges. What makes you think that there isn’t a lot of Bridge Salesmen masquerading as politicians, today? ps I’ve read up a bit on conflicts in the 19th century, most of the places have been in the history books in the 20th century and the 21st (so far). By the way, Jews have been given a flogging on a regular basis along with the Gypsy’s.

Yes zipper lip, I knew about the gypsies for sure and a lot of the others, it is wicked! So many did not understand, or if they did, it was easier to turn the other cheek. Nothing is new. I trust no government.
