Excellent take by Hans von Spakovsky (apparently, it is a Kraut thing)
That is really good.

There's something to be said for familial connections to people who avoided the Holocaust ingraining a level of understanding of this issue which surpasses the general population. Which is why I always find it odd whenever Jews in this country align with the party of disarmament (at least on that issue).
Ben Shapiro (miss you Ben on the forum!) has a great theory. Jews (big J) aren't Democrats: ones who go to temple regularly, live the faith, etc. People that happen to be jews (small j) but don't do anything related are.
I'm pretty sure the famous Ben Shapiro is not our Ben S.

If they did this they wouldn't be Leftists.
The use of the word "but" usually indicates that everything preceding it in a sentence is a lie.
E.g.:
"I believe in Freedom of Speech, but". . .
"I support the Second Amendment, but". . .
