Sounds like Chermany:1933, the government decided to turn a blind eye
to a certain political minority's illegal activities and, before the
rest of the country knew what had hit them, democracy had been
entirely subverted.
 
I really hope our government knows what it is doing when it chooses to
arbitrarily not enforce the law against the illegal activities of a
particular political minority in our country.......
