Ok, pardon me while I break out the cluex4 and say DUMBASS!
I believe the saying is, “Those who choose to forget history, are doomed to repeat it” And they wonder why Germany has a high anti-semite problem. Talk about it much?!

Wow. What a wonderful way to make it into a de facto revered symbol, even if the reverence is of a backhanded sort.

Yeah, not to mention teach the next generation about one of the atrocities that humans are capable of, and why it wasn’t a good thing.

Why not just ban tabloid celebs from wearing Nazi symbols…? Oh, and don’t forget the Muslim girls’ head scarves. And, um….

Don’t forget the cross! As we know, that’s a horrid reminder of the atrocity committed way back when. Damned Romans and Jesus hating Pharisees.

Well, one of the wonderful little things that they don’t tell you in there, is that people like me can’t wear certain pieces of jewelry deemed religious in nature in Germany (and Norway or Sweden, for that matter) because of bans on “Nazi” symbols. It goes further than the Nazi swastika. None the less, It would be stupid from a historic standpoint. Ban all memory of the world’s most memorable evil and wait for it to rise again.

Yeah. It’s pathetic. I mean, I can see that some who lived then (one of my grove sisters grew up near a death camp during WWII), have a massive guilt complex over it and get nasty flashbacks. But seriously, you can’t prevent something if you choose to ignore it. Germany is already having that problem based on the fact that they don’t teach much about WWII, now anti-semitism is on the rise, and it’s not the result of a large Turkish population. It’s neo-nazi’s. Sad, sad decision.
