<<I think it is no coincidence that it was said in GoF (by D. Malfoy?)
that Squibs and Mudbloods would be targeted first, just as gays and 
Gypsies were first to be put in concentration camps in the thirties 
in Germany (one is a marginalized group in the community; the other 
is an "ethnic" group which is insinuating itself into wizarding 
society).>>

Very few topics are completely banned from the discussions here, but 
at the moment The Holocaust is one of these.  Newer members may not 
be aware that the topic generated some quite inflammatory discussion 
(not to mention inaccurate statements) in the past. The moderators 
respectfully ask that members do not continue this thread of 
discussion.

I'm afraid we haven't noted this particular ban on a flashing neon 
sign, so please forgive my stepping in on list to call a halt.

Thanks
