Hitler, with a lot of work, and help was able to get himself appointed Chancellor in 1933. But he was NOT in total control of Germany at that time. He still had to get rid of the president, and the " Congress " So, one of the first steps that he took was to burn the " Reichstag " Which I guess is like congress, and blaming it on the Communist. The day after he did that, he petitioned the President, and got signature for " The Defensive Measure against Communist acts of violence endangering the state."

Could you imagine that the decree laid down : Restrictions on personal liberty, on the right of free expression of opinion, including freedom of the press; on the rights of assembly and association; and violations of the privacy of postal, telegraphic and telephonic communications;and warrants for house searches, orders for confiscations as well as restrictions on property, are also permissible beyond the legal limits otherwise prescribed.
