I met a nurse at the hospital and as we were talking the subject of the Holocaust came up and she knew nothing about it. I told her about it and she said she'd have to look it up.
She sounded skeptical about it even when I told her I had visited Dachau and saw first hand what was done.
How quickly people forget how we are seeing a repeat beginning under our current president and the GOP in congress who are ignoring it.
I always prefer to believe the best of everybody, it saves so much trouble.
