Editing a user's post so people can not judge them for themselves in context but then complaining about other people finding your post offensive is by it's very definition throwing your weight around.

I cited a historical example of how just because some belongs to a racial group doesn't mean that they have the best interest of that group in their minds or they even like the group. People can't control who they are when they are born. It was a historic example and the fact that it involved Nazis means nothing. I could make the same point by pointing out that on plantations in the American South certain slaves where trusted to watch over slaves and keep them from escaping, that is why such a large portion of the white population was able to leave and devote themselves full time to the war effort. If we are not allowed to bring historical fact into this then what are we allowed to cite as example and proof of human nature. If bringing up Nazis or the slave culture of the South for any reason is not allowed then we can also not talk about the evil of those two movements. Do we really want to leaving in that world? We can not and should not pick and choose what lessons we learn from the past. if we want to be better in the future then we have to study all the facts and listen to all the lessons they can teach us not just about the events but about human nature in general. If we don't then we are committing the real crime by refusing to honor the dead and learn from them. History is as much about examining your own soul as it is about examining the events of the past.
