Daisja Weaver
I can’t believe this situation is happening again! Last week, a young couple in the process of moving to another apartment, made a call to the local police to file a missing persons report. The missing person in question was a 9 month old baby girl named Daisja Weaver. Since the report of the missing child, local news and some network news stations had started to cover this event and help locate the baby. Amber alerts were issued for Texas, federal assistance came into help, and the parents made pleads on TV to bring the baby home. The news conferences they held were tearful and heartbreaking.

Some of the anchors who were speaking started to mention about James von Brunn’s writings online and his antisemitism remarks. Then they mentioned the item which prompted this blog post… He was an avid believer in the fact that the Holocaust never happened.
That’s when my blood started to boil. I don’t understand how people can actually convince themselves that the Holocaust never happened? What goes through their minds that makes them believe so strongly in something that is so outrageously wrong! And the scary thing is, this guy isn’t alone. And I’m not just speaking of the KKK clans still active in the United States or the Nazi groups that still exists today. Those groups you kind of expect them to say something like that. But it’s your every day citizen you see walking down the street or a conversation that gets struck up nearby. And let’s not forget Iran’s president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad who has publicly, and fervently denied the Holocaust. (continue reading…)
