    This reads like German citizens who said they knew nothing of what was happening at concentration camps down the road from their town. Absolutely despicable. “We’re a very moral community” my ass.

      Bro they have a sign up that says “Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU SHALL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS.” according to this article, which is a hair raising echo of “Work makes you free” or whatever the Auschwitz sign said.
