Peloni: Nothing could demonstrate the state of moral decline in the West than employing the memory of the Holocaust as a call for political violence as a political advertisement. Noting that political violence is the manner by which the weak and flailing Wehrmacht Republic fell to Nazi control and simultaneous unveiling of mass deportations and slaughters of Jews, all of which Shelley Headon finds useful as a the basis of a political stunt in her current race for political office. No doubt the feckless Democratic leadership will maintain a hushed silence as this outrageous act goes unaddressed.

The difference between the two parties could not be any clearer. How can any decent, rational American vote for these savages?
This is Shelly Headen, Democrat running for NC House District 62.
She toured Dachau, a Nazi death camp, smiled in front of the ovens, and posted:
“This is where Trump supporters belong.”
41,500 people were murdered there. Jews. Priests. POWs. Political prisoners.

NC Democrat Legislative Candidate Shelly Headen: ‘Visiting Dauchau [sic] Concentration Camp in Germany…..This is where Trump supporters belong’
North Carolina Democrat state legislative candidate Shelly Headen posted a Facebook story from a vacation showing her in front of ovens in a German concentration camp memorial, saying, “Visiting Dauchau [sic] Concentration Camp in Germany… This is where Trump supporters belong.”
Headen was reportedly visiting Dachau, where the memorial states that 41,500 people were murdered.
In social media photos, Headen is seen smiling as she stands in front of what appears to be crematorium ovens, which were used by the Nazi SS to burn the bodies of Jews and other prisoners who died or were murdered at the camp.
Headen faces incumbent Republican state Rep. John Blust in a suburban Guilford County district. On her Facebook page, Headen says she is a CPA and business owner “running to restore human decency,” an ironic statement after saying political opponents should be in concentration camps while posing and smiling in front of ovens at a Holocaust memorial site.
Six million Jews were murdered during the Holocaust.
The rhetoric expressed by Headen is growing among Democrat candidates and left-wing agitators across the nation. Earlier this year, a crazed gunman attempted to break through security presumably to assassinate President Trump at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner, and Michigan Muslim socialist candidate Abdul El-Sayed said, in response to an attack against a Jewish synagogue in his state, “Hurt people hurt people.”
The apparent call to burn Trump supporters isn’t her only expression of support for violence. In another Facebook post, Headen appears to call for an unspecified terrorist attack against America, writing, “I think our only hope is an attack on US soil… preferably Alabama, Louisiana… where the stupid people are.”
Headen has also faced domestic assault allegations in which her husband is listed as the “potential victim.”
A pair of what appear to be law enforcement “incident/investigation reports” from 2024 indicate Mrs. Headen was the suspect in both incidents.
In a statement on September 3, Headen said of the domestic violence allegations, “In 2024, during a high-stress time in my marriage, my husband and I had a couple of arguments that escalated. During one argument, my husband grabbed me, and I fell backward and hit my head. In my fear and confusion, I sought support and protection from those I trusted—I called 911.”
That description contradicts police reports, noting two separate law enforcement visits, not one, in both of which she is listed as the suspect and her husband the “potential victim.”
Breitbart News has reached out to Headen for a response to her inflammatory Facebook posts and clarification on the domestic violence allegations. The campaign has not responded by press time.
The question in the head note refers to ‘decent and rational’ Americans. Invoking these people requires us to recall call Mencken’s famous sayings. They are:
‘No one in this world, so far as I know — and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me — has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby.”
The mistake that is made always runs the other way. Because the plain people are able to speak and understand, and even, in many cases, to read and write, it is assumed that they have ideas in their heads, and an appetite for more. This assumption is a folly.”
