"Anger and Humiliation" & "Voices in the Dark"

The two "rules" that I found most unfair was numbers 4&7. Number 4 states that "Germon blood as a requirement for German citizenship. No Jew can be a member of the nation." This is really unfair to the Jewish people because all humans being have rights. And the fact that they treat people differently because of their religion itsself is already out of question. Rather than just putting all the blame on Jewish people for losing their war, they should have came up with better and more reasonable ways to rebuild their country. Number 7 says "The state in sures that every citizen live decently and earn his livelihood. If it is impossible to provide food for the whole population, then aliens must be expelled." I found this unreasonable because if they were able to feed everyone first, and later they just stopped providing things for the foreingers, what would happen to them is already unfair. They would not have any education, food, etc, for until the government finds a way to do so.

If I was in that train in the story, I would have said you know what guys, what you are saying is not true. Although, I wouldn't have mentioned the fact that I was "Jew" because I would expect something bad to happen if I did so. Even doing so could have caused some trouble because of how the amount of people against me were more than the people with me. Something like that hasn't happened directly to me, but I have heard a situation like such. My friend, (who was Indian) was in her school and some guys started talking about how Indians smell like. My friend stood up to the guys and said that that was not true, but they were still laughing. Although, it could have been just a joke to them, but for my friend, it hurt.
