I was pretty horrified when I recently learned that the allies rounded up the people that the nazis had put in concentration camps for being 'homophiles' and transferred them to prison. When they finally did get release years later, they were still classified as sex offenders.
I don't know why this surprises me considering the horrible stuff Americans were doing at home on that front... But just the idea of taking someone out of a concentration camp and then sticking them in prison ends up pissing me off just that little bit extra.
