2/4. The entire practice of the Holocaust of the Jews involved zones of statelessness. It is easier to move people away from law than it is to remove law from people. Almost all of the killing took place in artificially created stateless zones.

It’s not an Order unless it’s from the Order region of France. If not, it’s just sparkling jurisprudence.

No - I saw it on a friend’s feed. But it shouldn’t be too hard to verify. Those track with recent elections.

Absolutely. We need to write and talk about it - force those uncomfortable conversations. I have too many students who say - I never knew X. Why weren't we taught that in high school? Many desperately want to understand, but don't have the tools to start the work. That's where we come in.

The irony: Atwater regretted his actions - on his deathbed, facing his maker, but still there was regret. My dad actually laughed when he heard that - too little, too late. When you make the connections from Goldwater to Trump - it's disturbing. This really was a long con. And the suckers ate up.

Actually the policy was developed under Nixon, the enforcement came under Ford. Technically.
