How about a little history lesson. Since we are always hearing about history repeating itself, here are a few facts about one of the most heinous despots in history. These are not presented with the intention of comparing with anyone else, just for information only. This will help us understand how Hitler conquered almost all of Europe and Western Asia. Hitler was a Socialist. If you happen to see any of these happening today in The United States, maybe we better start worrying. Here goes:
•Hitler had a DEEP dislike for Jews.
•Hitler was a great speaker that energized his base.
•Hitler alienated the opposition, causing mass division.
•Hitler took over the country's leading auto factories.
•Hitler promised massive entitlements to his base.
•Hitler promised jobs for everyone, and failed miserably.
•Hitler was into symbolism (swastika, skulls, lightning bolts, etc.)
•Hitler had a "god" complex.
•Hitler was raised in a country other than the one he ended up leading.
•Hitler hated capitalism and preferred socialism.
•Hitler was deeply ingrained with propaganda.
•Hitler nationalized health care, banned guns, and banned free speech.
•Hitler was put in power by bullying, deception, lies and threats.
•Hitler declared the right to order any dissident to be arrested or killed.
•Hitler was adored by those who didn't listen to him.
•Hitler declared himself to be the savior of his country.
•Hitler changed his predecessors history to suit his agenda.
•Hitler promoted dissension within communities.
•Hitler censored and controlled the media.
•Hitler's father abandoned him in his youth.
•Hitler used drugs.
•Hitler wrote autobiographical books which was used as propaganda in his elections.
•Hitler was TIME's man of the year.
•Hitler used the unions to gain power.
One of the very first things Hitler did was to confiscate all privately owned guns.
Now you can take these facts and do what you will. Me, personally, am afraid for our country. Although I don't own any guns, I'm seriously contemplating the purchase of one. Maybe we should all do the same. I fear time is short and you can call me any names you like, it won't change the facts. We are in trouble.
Those who ignore history are destined to repeat it.
