RHDefense: The Law Office of Rick Horowitz
Home of Probable Cause: The Legal Blog with the Really Low Standard of Review
It’s amazing how often history reports itself in things both small and large.
I recently ran across one of the small things in this passage from Sinclair Lewis’s It Can’t Happen Here:
“Remember our war hysteria, when we called sauerkraut ‘Liberty cabbage’ and somebody actually proposed calling German measles ‘Liberty measles’?” (Sinclair Lewis, It Can’t Happen Here (2005 ed.) p. 17, originally published in 1935.)
Can I interest you in some “freedom fries”?
Over on my other blog — I maintain FresnoCriminalDefense.com as my website and blog relating to more regional issues specific to my Fresno criminal defense office — I had the chance to respond to one of my readers who complained, among other things, that I was not being fair to law enforcement officers because I made allusions to the similarities between them and the enforcers of totalitarianism in Nazi Germany.
The timing could not have been more perfect.
