The problem is that banning it doesn't fix the past or bring back the
dead. It however, does make it easier to forget and makes the job of
those that choose the believe that certain horrid events from the
39-45 period never happened.
We need to keep reminding people of that dark period of history. If
that means that re-enactors wear SS uniforms and "kill" prisoners at
re-enactments, then so be it. It's about educating the public.
