Some laws are unjust.
Some are cruel and perverse. One of the major components of the Nuremberg Laws of 1935 was called Rassenschande, or race defilement. The law was the result of a long-held belief that Jews were the sexual seducers of the German people. It left couples of mixed faiths with a serious problem. One of the most famous cases of Rassenschande involved Joachim Gottschalk, a German movie actor.
