Another example of S.13 stupidity

It seems too many Liberals can't see the forest for the trees. The "trees" being non-liberal thinkers and the "forest" being everyone. You see, if the the bar for S.13 is "contempt" and protected groups include nationality, how then can we talk about the holocaust? Seriously, if you were a German or German-Canadian, how would you feel if you were constantly told it was your people who murdered 6,000,000 Jews, and 6,000,000 others? How do you think other people feel about Germans when they learn this truth? How does a German child feel in class when her people are discussed in that context? Is it likely that some people would feel contempt for Germans given that information?

Or Russians? Do you think the Ukrainian genocide could lead to contempt? Chinese? How about the cultural revolution? English? Ever hear of the potato famine, the penal laws? Do you begin to get the idea? I sure hope so.
