      The paramilitary arm of the Nazis, also known as SA, doing all the protection of events and members, harassment and killings of persecuted minorities and concurrent parties while it was not in power yet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturmabteilung

      But the situation is different now because you’re part of the official organization with the official power :/

        That explains it, thank you!

        Wouldn’t it not be so different, since I’m not part of the official organization? Just tangential?

        I’m not very good with history. I know the broad strokes, but I’ve forgotten a lot of this kind of history. It hasn’t been relevant in my line of work, so doesn’t get easily remembered.

        That link does explain the reference, though, thank you!

            Do you know what their line of work is, or are you saying it applies to everyone?

            I’d say it is important to everyone, especially if you are American.
