And, of course, putting murderers to their deserved death is exactly the same as slaughtering millions of people simply because of their race, infirmities, or because they complained about being forced to work hard labor sixteen hours a day. Next time you want to make a comparison to the Nazis, don't, no matter what you're arguing. It's a ridiculous comparison.
