Remember, if someone tells you that your dream of having a bookshelf with a rolling ladder is "unrealistic", they were never your friend to begin with.

Please. Explain to me how the fourth amendment allows federal officers to enter your home without either your consent or a judicial warrant and without a warrant exception because it's civil rather than criminal law.
Explain it to me with case law.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.
