Wow, there's some revisionist history!

Poland was isolationist? They were the first country invaded; they had no option to be "isolated" from the war. England delayed military involvement while Chamberlain was PM, but that is better described as "appeasement with fingers crossed" than isolationist. As soon as Churchill was elected, England was militarily involved, even if they did get kicked off the mainland from Dunkirk until Normandy.

The United States didn't "ignore the slaughter of millions until it was 'a threat to our nation'"; concentration camps had no bearing at all on entering the war. The large-scale slaughter didn't begin until we were already at war with Germany, and wasn't truly known until GIs liberated concentration camps. Germany was already defeated before Americans at large knew about the Holocaust.

Poland largely accepted the Nazi party... but they also to a non-stance to the issue when it started... feel free to read
Persecution of the Jews
Better for all the World
Antisemitism at High Tide
The Abandonment of the Jews

It's not revisionist... believing the US found out and "did the right thing" is blind patriotism. And the US, knew about the Nazi's agenda and the persecution of the Jews long before we "joined the effort"

If you want to continue this please PM me, as it's something i've studied for a long time and would be glad to share these sources as well as more if interested.

but i agree this has little to do with the topic posted...

so in the nature of the OP: no carry/no weapon signs are a means to inform the criminals we won't be armed... if they want to protect their employees and the customers it's better to not advertise no one will be armed... these signs are counter-intuitive to the issue, and simply allow criminals to target places where the likelihood of armed resistance is less likely... the only people who will obey their wishes are law abiding citizens and after the Nebraska shooting, i think it's obvious that those signs won't stop a criminal...

actually it stemmed from countries like England, Poland, and the United States of America forming isolationist policies and ignoring the slaughter of millions until it was "a threat to our nation"...

There were movements and even an extremely underfunded American "attempt" to help smuggle them out...

then after we do join the war, we pass anti-immigration laws to keep those still alive from running here.. essentially cutting the number legally allowed per year to almost 20% of it's previously allowed limit...

Don't kid yourself it had nothing to do with being polite. We ignored the issue...

There's a method to protest these places... and it's not by issuing your mandates to the poor assistant manager or making some stock boy's day worse... SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE, send a letter to their corporate office explaining why, and leave the employees out of it... they have no recourse to fix it most of the time.

while we don't have to honor non-compliant signs... the intentions of the signs are clear, and in that intention is my answer...

they don't respect my Rights and my safety, they don't deserve my money.
