Watch Morning Joe Highlights: Oct. 6 | MSNBC

The little known story about the Third Reich is that Hitler was at
his "Wolf's Lair" he wanted a house in the neighborhood for his 
sister.  He looked around the area and found a house he believed
to be suitable and he asked the owner to sell it to him.  The owner
refused to sell because the house had been in his family for several
generations and he wasn't going to be the one to dispose of it.
Well, this owner knew his rights under the law and so he believed
he could refuse to sell if he didn't want to and no one could undo
his decision.  Little did he know that the people Hitler had appointed
to high offices were not loyal the German Constitution and it's laws
but were appointed because they were loyal to Hitler himself, instead.
So, the next day men in dark military uniforms came to his home and
asked him to accompany them.  They kept him in an office downtown
without food or drink and his protests and requests as to what he had
done and why he was being treated this way fell on deaf ears.  He was
put on a train to a place where he was told, the commander would be
able to sort things out for him.  At Auschwitz he was told that indeed
he was right, since he wasn't Jewish he shouldn't be there, but they
said, you've had a long trip, take a shower and we'll straighten things
out later.  Needless to say, the rule of law meant nothing without dedicated
people loyal to the Constitution and the law, to enforce it.
