Anyone else think that they should just leave this guy alone, I mean just what do they hope to prove, the dude is like 88 or something?

Have you EVER read a History Book?  Read about him.  Then get back to us.

History, yep I read it all the time. Fact is that it is very much in doubt that he had any decision making power while he was a guard. If you have read something that proves the case against him, please let me know so I can read it, I have no problem changing my mind.

Assuming that he was “just” a guard, and doing what he was being ordered, then I say leave him alone. None of us can imagine what it would have been like, I’m sure that he knew that if he disobey orders, he would have been next. Most people would have done the same he did.

Now, if it could be proved beyond any doubt that he did in fact make decisions that cost people their lives, then fry him, but there are just not conclusive facts to be had.

I feel that he is a one of, if not the last, target for the Nazi hunters and they still taste blood, they need to make one last statement. Not a good enough reason to kill someone that you could never prove guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

And for the record I am pro death penalty.

Forever,  I could only hope, just one of the Guards, would have replied to whomever was giving the orders....no I refuse to lead these people to slaughter.  Perhaps, just perhaps, the second, third, fourth Guard would have followed suit, and the Holocaust would not have happened.  I can't help but wonder IF he is guilty, and there is documentation that says he is, how has he been able to exist knowing that he was party to such a horrible, horrible thing.

This is my opinion.....I know it is not a perfect world, wouldn't even want perfect....UNDERSTANDING would be a definite PLUS.  By the way, two of my Grandparents were born in Germany, as were their two first born children.

Seems they got their sacrificial lamb. Seems that lack of evidence was not a problem.
