your words are very powerful. My dad fought in WWII under General Patton and he too, had to experience 'liberating' a concentration camp, Mauthausen. He never talked about it, never. When I see and hear the hatred that spews from the mouths of these haters, I can only think of the confusion that comes from paranoid schizophrenics, the cadence is the same, the spittle forming at the sides of their mouths, the trance that they get in. Its scary but we can't let it stop us from fighting these people. You are so right as to what we are experiencing. We must share this man's story with everyone. Thank you.
