A Killing at the Holocaust Museum:Questions Linger

A man named Mr. Amon Van Brun shot the guard, Mr. Stephen Tyrone Johns at the National Holocaust Museum, where he showed up sporting an armed rifle.Mr. Johns is now a ntional hero because it is thought that he protected the others in the museum at the ultimate cost.
Mr. Van Brun is a well known author of a white supremacist book about how the Jews in the world hurt gentiles worldwide.
The violence experienced here had many wondering why there are other people who want to suppress the evidence of genocide and racial hatred and deny that the holocaust even happened.
Why do you think this happened? Your thoughts please.

Francis: the Magna Carta Memorial: Who Knew?

Silks By Felix and Dick Francis
Google

I have been enjoying a book given to me by a cousin called"Silks"by Dick and Felix Francis.
It talks about the Magna Carta Memorial in London; built in 1957 by nine thousand American lawyers to honor the Magna Carta document ; which is credited for shaping laws in the United States "and throughout Western Civilisation" according to the attorneys, according to authors Feix and Dick Francis.
The document made sure they wrote that King John upheld it.
It said:
1." that the church would be free from the Royal House ruling it.
2." that it would preserve the ancient freedoms that London enjoys,
3. "that no human will be destroyed, outlawed , imprisoned or condemned unless it is the legal judgement of his peersor the lawof the landthat this shall happen,
4."that we shall not deny or delay rightsor justice to anyone."
Apparently they write, at that time the English had takent their rights for granted .
Then , King John had abused their rights.
they wrote this document so that no king could do this again. It affected all of the Western world and eventually America.
So does his document and monument impress you?
Do you think our rights are safe?
Elaborate.
