Re: “The Role of International Affairs in Reducing Racial Inequality in the USA in the Years 1877-1981” by Sean Gabb
Several other authors have presented the case that discovery of exactly what went on during the Holocaust was what caused so many people in the US and elsewhere to see how evil racism is. Showed us what it led to and made us realize this wasn't where we want to go. Of course, there is so much more to the evil of the Holocaust, but this is how it affected American Race relations.
This also explains Holocaust deniers. Besides being a defense of the Third Reich and an exercise in ant-Semitism, it denies there is a lesson to be learned on why racism needs to be rejected.

Dear Ken and Ted,
The graphic for the trebuchet letter has a mistaken URL. [ Oops… fixed&mdashEditor ]
Romance languages use a great many “s” and “es” plurals. Trebuchet is from French, and is derived from the Old French word “trebucher” which means “to overthrow”.
English has a few good words from its Anglo Saxon heritage which do not involve “s” and “es” for plural. These words include: sheep, deer, fish, swine. They are sometimes called “unmarked plurals”. Essentially all of these words come to the English language from Dutch or German.
Now, in the French language, they do not pronounce “trebuchet” any differently from “trebuchets”." It is the same “ay” on the end, just like Fonzi might have said. What they do, instead, is modify the article out front. So if it were “le trebuchet” then it becomes “les trebuchets”.
It is my fervent wish that this pedantic review of linguistic minutia is of some service.
Regards,
Jim

No one ever finishes the statement “We don’t need weapons of war on America’s streets” withe the phrase “Thank God,” This is not just a call for a more religious attitude as many of my friends are what an earlier era called free thinkers. Rather it is also a reminder that the freedom, order, and prosperity we enjoy is the result of hard work and individual voluntary commitment to make our nation (Not the same as government or nation-state) and society work. If enough of us do not engage in this work we will need WoW’s in our street to survive. I’d rather have a “WoW” and not need it than the opposite. And I can honestly say I’ve spent most of my life trying to make them tools for target shooting and varmint hunting and not accouterments we need to carry 24/7.
Seeing as how we have so many political leaders who are trying to cash in on our civilization instead of keeping it working you will have to understand why I am so jealous of my right to keep and bear arms.
