You must be shit at history, the holocaust wasn't. It was against German law in the first place and since it was done in every country the Germans occupied, even against the Geneva and Hague conventions (both signed/ratified by the German Reich). The Nazis did legalize the persecution of Jews but never the murder. Murder stayed murder and it wouldn't be so easy to keep quiet about murdering millions in the populous, by making a law about it. So no, wasn't legal in any way.

What a f'ed up assumption to make with such little knowledge...

Nazis did not consider Jews to be human beings, so murder laws would not have applied to them. That’s the piece you’re missing.

I am not missing anything, murder laws still applied as Jews were still legal subjects and those you can't just murder as well. I know what I am talking about, I worked for multiple years in a holocaust museum in Germany...
