If the pictures and the documents don't do it for you, think for yourself. Also would the documents that were made after the human expiramentation be used as scientific evidence or proof now days? I mean could you throw away evidence like that?

Most countries wouldn't find anything legally wrong with it either. Again, look at it from Germany's point of view. They started two world wars. Their economy was in shambles after both. They were a divided country for some 40 years. Basically, if they have to make some things illegal (shouting "Heil Hitler!", raising their hand in that salute, showing Nazi symbology, the list goes on and on) in order to prevent that from happening again, they're going to do it.
20/20 (I think) did a report on some of those laws years ago. They showed a group of guys in a truck driving through a town shouting "Heil Hitler!" and doing the salute. The people in the town shot at them. No one in that country wants that to happen again...EVER. That is why they have such restrictive laws regarding that stuff. It was not only a terrible time in their history, it was a terrible time in World History.
