Of course, they did......."Hitler’s dictatorship, backed by sweeping police powers, silenced critics of Nazi eugenics and supporters of individual rights. After all educational and cultural institutions and the media came under Nazi control, racial eugenics permeated German society and institutions.

My Dad turned 15 in 1941, but lived in Canada. Lucky for me, few Canadians fought in WWII. So my immediate family remained unscathed from that war. And my older brothers were never called for Vietnam either, though it was perhaps a closer call. Lucky, yes, but I do not think that many in America who are between 60-75 years old really learned the lesson about 'government interventions' re health and how very badly they go wrong. In a word, governments eff things up. One fella I know has the saying, They steal the real and sell you back the fake. (Media Monarchy James Delgado-sarcasm on 11). Best
History likes itself, so it likes to be repeated. It always watches. Now it’s smiling. It sees another nation of sleep walkers, once known as the shining light on the hill, drifting down the same road to destruction, step by step, as a European nation in the 1930's and 40's. Will people ever learn? Not likely, as too few pay real attention, for too many are wrapped up in wokism, cancelism, transgenderism, Critical Race Theory, anti-constitution, anti-nation founders, anti-free speech, anti-law enforcement, etc. History has a lot about which to smile. This is even better than what led to WWII as far as history is concerned.
Hard to believe that German people still don't see. There are enough survivors left to remember, but very little speak up even though they know the history. Sad.
"Origins of the Gun Control Act of 1968(Warning:LONG)"
An excerpt:
"There are quite a few stories in the firearms world relating the idea that GCA68 was the word-for-word translation of the German (Nazi) Weapons Act of 1938 (GWA38). This certainly appears to be at least partially true. It is also apparent GCA68 was patterned after aspects of another post WWI law, German Law on Firearms and Ammunition of 1928 (German Law 1928).
But, there is more to GCA68 than just German gun control laws. Great influence was provided by powerful, charismatic, forces to get German laws incorporated into US Law. And one must realize these laws did not travel from Germany across the Atlantic on their own; they definitely had some help.
The provisions of GCA68 had been hotly sought after by Connecticut Senator Thomas J Dodd and President LB Johnson for several years. It had victories and set backs along the way, and still did not have all the measures they wanted to see in the final bill.
In regard to LBJ's influence on gun control, it has to be said that there has never been a more convincing and powerful force over the will of Congress. He repeatedly championed the idea of total gun control in the last years of his term as President. At every chance, he used the television and other formal appearances to shamelessly promote the denial of Second Amendment rights to all Americans. We will include quite a few of the excerpts from his speeches and quotes to this end.
GCA68 was preceded by the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act (OCCSSA), June 1968. The handgun control provisions in OCCSSA were amended by GCA68 to include rifles and shotguns.
GCA68 took a very convoluted path to passage and ultimately drew upon the murder and assassination of at least three key figures to finally get the needed Congressional sponsorship and public support to pass.
This article will give some insights and history of the passage of what is likely the most precedent-setting, restrictive, and damaging, gun control bill Americans have ever known."
It is like I said before, we may need to revisit "Operation Paperclip" and the similar OP with Japan's "Unit 731" which occurred at the end of WW II.
Back in '74, when I was in pre-pharmacy, I had a classmate whose great uncle was a physician/researcher involved with the preliminary investigation into "Unit 731" at the end of WW II.
His recommendation: "Burn it, burn it all, there is only evil here."

At least AH didn't want to kill e v e r y b o d y.

Klaus Schwab is continuing the tradition of his father.
In Operation Paperclip we imported all things German Fascists here.
Here is a great article, for comparison's sake.

They didn't.
Ain't fascism grand
Germans in the 30s and 40s now have a “Death Passport”.
They should be sent to UkroNazistan to fight with the Neo-Nazis in Donbas!
Thanks Pelham
Are you posting a reminder that the German good health document from days gone bye is a preview of the current vaxx pass?
Because that is what our commenters are assuming and concluding.
Maybe we have been conditioned to go into anti German fear mode when we see the swastika symbol .
Did we give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
Britain had laws about proving you were jabbed for smallpox too. All through the 1800s I think.
