............."Times change. The latest news out of Denmark bore this headline: “Jews Warned Not to Wear Kipot, Stars of David in Copenhagen.” Is it really acceptable that in one of Europe’s great capitals someone wearing a Star of David cannot walk safely in the streets?

The Holocaust Museum web site tells us of a different Denmark:


Germany occupied Denmark on April 9, 1940. However, Danish Jews were not persecuted until the autumn of 1943.
When the German police began searching for and arresting Jews on the night of October 1, 1943, the Danish police refused to cooperate.
Unlike Jews in other countries under Nazi rule, the Jews of Denmark were never forced to wear the yellow Star of David or any other identifying badge.
Approximately 500 Jews were deported from Denmark to the Theresienstadt ghetto in Czechoslovakia. Following protests from their government, these Danish inmates were allowed to receive letters and even some care packages. Most of them survived the Holocaust.
It seems, from this information, that a Jew could more safely walk the streets of Denmark’s capital in 1942 than today, 70 years later."..............

And yet France won't let Muslim women wear that veil thing. Is that OK?

Is there a connection? Were Muslim women in Burkas subject to violence?

Slutwalks are to show that women can wear what they want. Should the Danish Jews hold a star march during Hannukah?

Hey Bob, I appreciate all your informative posts....

BUT WHAT ARE YOU THINKING POSTING SUCH A QUESTION?

I think the answer is heck yeah.

But back on topic, it is odd, but we also live in a society where liberties are being traded for entitlements all the time. This is completely conceivable here too. I do not think you would have to work to hard to gety concentration camps for Muslims in the US, or perhaps I should put it this way, if the US govt just starting locking up Muslims or making them wear identifiers all the time, would the US people let them get away with it, I bet heck yeah on the that one too. I bet the American people wouldn't even resist if they were forced to wear an identifier on their car all the time, not just for their grouping but for them specifically, oh wait, I mean on your back, just wait.

I say our reaction should be to make sure that cannot happen hear, to ANYONE of ANYGROUP.
