Apparently, someone found a wax characature of Hitler offensive; they attacked it and tore off it's head.
Uh.....you're 70 years too late!
Where were you when the real Hitler was gathering up "inferior specimens" and concentrating them in ghettos and concentration camps until a "final solution" could be formulated?
Cowering in fear like the rest of Europe, more than likely!
Look, I don't think anyone else would have played it differently in the same situation, so don't accuse me of being a "Monday morning quarterback;" all I'm trying to say is that trying to deny that the events of the past actually occured is ignorant! He who attempts to deny the truth is doomed to repeat it!
It's rather like race relations in this country today. We DARE not speak of slavery, as if the mere mention will bring it back or somehow demean the memory of those who suffered unspeakable horror. To accept it for what it was, to believe in the truth; THAT has become the sin in this day and time!
I have an idea! Accept what happened for what it was, teach it to our children so they will never EVER, think about going back there again and mourn for those who were too swept up, too overwhelmed, to fight back when it was happening!
That's what we owe them and that's what we owe the future!
