"...you're right about Amnesty being made up of ordinary people with good intentions. So was most of the Nazi party."

I'm afraid that is crap. Ordinary people yes, but ordinary people who didn't give a damn about hating Jews and Gypsies and Trade Unionists and anybody who wouldn't fall in line. That was the Nazis, right from the start.

There are still lots of people a whoare rather like that around, I'm afraid. And that's why there are always people who will defend the kind of things that Amnesty helps bring to light. Being ordinary isn't in itself enough.
