Nuremberg, Kentucky

 Two distinct laws passed in Nazi Germany in September 1935 are known collectively as the Nuremberg Laws: the Reich Citizenship Law and the Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor. These laws embodied many of the racial theories underpinning Nazi ideology. They would provide the legal framework for the systematic persecution of Jews in Germany. Adolf Hitler announced the Nuremberg Laws on September 15, 1935. Germany’s parliament (the Reichstag), then made up entirely of Nazi representatives, passed the laws. Antisemitism was of central importance to the Nazi Party, so Hitler had called parliament into a special session at the annual Nazi Party rally in Nuremberg, Germany. (Holocaust Encyclopedia) The Nuremberg Laws were antisemitic, racist laws that were enacted in Nazi Germany on 15 September 1935, at a special meeting of the Reichstag convened during the annual Nuremberg Rally of the Nazi Party.

In a press conference soon after the grand jury result, Kentucky’s Attorney General Daniel Cameron gave a news conference on Wednesday where he acknowledged that “not everyone will be satisfied with the charges” unveiled. Shockingly, Cameron also added under questioning that he thought when it comes to the shooting at Taylor’s apartment, “it is unlikely that there will be any additional prosecutions that come from that event itself.”….Outlining the case that was presented to the grand jury earlier this week, why it is believed Hankison’s shots never struck Taylor, and why the two other officers were “justified” to fire back in perceived self-defense, Cameron seems to be drawing talking points from his remarks to night 2 of the Republican National Convention in August. “Mob justice is not justice,” the state official proclaimed in pejorative and loaded language that could have been pulled straight out of a Donald Trump rally and its law and order re-election focus.

So, it IS official, you can legally be murdered in your own apartment, sipping an ice cream cone on your front porch, watching television, sitting in your car, jogging in public, entering your own home, WHILE BEING BLACK, if a Racist man or woman in the profession of a Police Officer, decides you are endangering someone, something, or just feels like taking target practice because they were bored! "Once again, a prosecutor has refused to hold law enforcement accountable for killing a young Black woman. Breonna Taylor should still be alive today."(ACLU) In Nazi Germany, the Non-Jewish Germans looked the other way/in America, it seems the justice system has decided to not only look the other way when it comes to Black Lives, it actually seems to be enforcing its own version of the Nuremberg Laws…Racist Laws, pure and simple!
