"This arrest makes clear that those who participated in the atrocities of the Holocaust will not escape the determined reach of U.S. law enforcement, regardless of how much time has passed," Attorney General John Ashcroft said in a news release.

Why don't you give the guy a break, J. Edgar Ashcroft?

sworn in

I'm not that big on giving illegal aliens breaks, particularly with Leprich´s background.

That was 60 years ago. Who is Ashcroft pandering to?

Yes, I know the answer.

"..and was found hiding out in a secret compartment underneath the stairs of his former Michigan home."

There is some delicious 60 year-old irony in the above quote.

what's the statute of limitations on signing up for the SS and slaughtering people? I'd like to think they're pandering to mankind.
If the "20th hijacker" escapes for 60 years, you feel like letting bygones be bygones, or do you want that bastard hunted down like the animal he is?

The 20th hijacker story is for your public consumption.

Get a grip on reality.

Cute dodge. Would you let him go, or not?

The guy was a guard at a death camp. Clearly violated the rights of countless victims. I don't see that he should be excused because he has been on good behavior. Sounds like he has been trying to blend in for years. Neverless, sounds like he was part of the evil that was/is the nazi party.

Still waiting for old Commies to be handled in like fashion. It would appear that, to some, the dispassionate condemnation of evil will always come in a distant second to scoring the right political points.

The poor illegal has been mistreated, as he notes on MSNBC

“I swear from the bottom of my heart and the grave of my parents and mother that I did not volunteer to the Waffen SS. I was forced. In all my life, I never hurt, mistreated or killed any human being.”

Admitted, illegal (not like he's getting prosecuted for anything) immigrant. Never hurt anyone. Mauthausen, couple hundred thousand dead, footnote of history, how could he notice. No harm, no foul, no statute of limitations.

Being a guard is a bad thing?

Yes it is, according to G. Gordon Liddy.

Uh oh, Fred. You aren't here trying to smear the Attorney General, are you? No, that wouldn't be your agenda, I wouldn't think......

Not to me. I'd suport prosecution. The problem seems to be the attitude in many of the former Communist countries. Largely, they don't want to prosecute, old ghosts, current leaders. I'm sure there are those crying out for it, but they're not loud enough. Post more of their petitions here, you have a sympathitic audience.

Of course, that had nothing to do with the article, did it.

I read but cannot find now that he was a union due paying Democrat in Detroit for a long while. Once a Nazi always a Nazi.

If you enjoy kicking down a 77 year-old man, have at it.

For corn's sake, Fred. How old are you? Do you have any sense of history at all? Or do you just follow TLBSHOW's on websites, and try to put words in the mouths of your harpies.
