Judged: 2 2 2 ========== I GOOGLED AROUND A WHILE WITHOUT FINDING ANYTHING SPECIFYING THE SIZE OF THE SIGNS. ANYONE FIND INFO ON THAT? ++++++++++ "Remember Hitler used to put Star of David on everybody's lapel, remember that?" Raese said. "Same thing." ========== AH, YES. A SIGN SAYING NOT TO ENGAGE IN THE #1 PREVENTABLE CAUSE OF DEATH WHILE ON THE PREMISES IS EXACTLY THE SAME AS A BADGE IDENTIFYING YOU AS ONE OF A "RACE" THAT IS SLATED FOR GENOCIDE. SURE IT IS. ++++++++++ Nazi authorities began forcing Jews to wear yellow Star of David badges beginning in 1939 in Poland, a practice that soon spread and became a key part of the Holocaust. The badges were a means of segregating and identifying Jews. Jews who did not wear the badges could be fined, imprisoned or shot, according to The International School for Holocaust Studies. ========== OH, NOW I SEE THE CONNECTION. OWNERS WHO DON'T POST NO-SMOKING SIGNS ARE BEING SHOT. WAIT, THAT'S NOT RIGHT.(The Topix link no longer works. Check the story by the link below.) ++++++++++ http://www.dailymail.com/News/election12/2012... |

Judged: 1 1 1 Sorry. The hook reached onstage and yanked you away before you got any further. Smoking is the issue. Smoking is a behavior. Smokers begin, smokers quit, smoking continues. Smoking is a specific behavior. Smokers do NOT comprise a "specific group". Jews are Jews. Non-Jews are not. Of course, addiction may cloud your ability to perceive that distinction. |

Judged: 1 1 1 Controlling other people without justification is the issue. Controlling targeted people is the issue. Nazis claimed they targeted Jews for behavior, comparing them to diseased rats, etc. Those wanting to target others for control will eventually eat their words, when some "behavior" of their own is targeted. |
