DCImonkey Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Love the Hitler vids. They are hilarious. I guess I could get my panties in a wad over it, but I don't feel he deserves that much respect from me. I don't make judgments for others. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corpsband Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Really enjoyed this one too: (warning -- it's marching band not drum corps -- but it's REALLY well done) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveKathyG Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Those of us who have been to the concentration camps in Germany, Poland, and Slovakia where this man murdered so many and those of us who have lost family members in service to our country because of the violance this man caused also do not find this video funny. Huh? Did I sign something asking you to speak for me? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank4now Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Hilarious! Sorry I couldn't help it. I tried not to laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drilltech1 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) Huh? Did I sign something asking you to speak for me? Much as you think Norm overreacted (I don't), I think you, 84BDsop and Garfield overreacted...he's talking about his family and him. That's all. Why I guess I don't think he is overreacting is that I am imagining what I would feel like if I lost someone in my family at 9/11 and someone put a spoofy video to it attributing comments about two corps I very much admire. It would not be classy. He's entitled to his grief. Edited August 21, 2013 by drilltech1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Freedman Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 The only thing worse than ridiculing Hitler is not ridiculing Hitler. Ridiculing Hitler is a perfectly right thing to do. And Pol Pot. And Stalin. And Mao. And Bin Laden. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to be able to grieve, celebrate, honor, condemn, and post the way I want to, without restriction based on how others think I should (the rules of DCP not-withstanding). I recognize that's just me, and that we all have different ways of viewing different circumstances and events.

IllianaLancerContra Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 The only thing worse than ridiculing Hitler is not ridiculing Hitler. Ridiculing Hitler is a perfectly right thing to do. And Pol Pot. And Stalin. And Mao. And Bin Laden. Completely OT (well, maybe not) you might want to read 'Hitler's Last Secretary' by Traudl Junge (ISBN-13: 978-1559707282). It is amazing how bland and seemingly ordinary, even boring Hitler apparently was when he was not 'on-stage'. The author is not a neo-nazi fellow traveler - it was written many years later through the lens of history, but based on her diary from the era; the first part of the book describes how she got the job. A fascinating read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can. People got their knickers in a knot with another poster's opinion. Funny how that works. "I have an opinion, but don't you dare tell me what I am thinking." - even if the concept of "you" is a generic statement on a public forum. Interesting... True belief in one's opinion is not offended by someone else's comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
