He doesn’t deny the Holocaust, and actually told me once that if he was born earlier he would have helped them with it.\* Of course this guy is a bit of an outlier, as he is _not_ a white supremacist, and supports the state of Israel (so that all the Jews can go there and be far away from him). > > \*My reaction was something like: :eek: “uh… er, wuh… I, eh… [other sounds meaning ‘that took me totally off guard, and I have no idea how to respond’]” The anti-semites I know hereabouts tend to be black Pentecostalist Xtians who claim not to hate Jews, and who even say that the Nazis were evil–but nonetheless were being used to do God’s will, as Yahweh was punishing the Jews for rejecting Christ. ---

Well you know, back in the 30’s and 40’s some Americans actually SUPPORTED the Nazis b/c they thought " Oh they’re getting rid of the Jews!" Remember…anti-Semtism used to be VERY obvious and blatent and a mainstream view. It wasn’t until about the sixities that anti-Semitism became distastful. ---

Point out that the Soviet Union had REPUBLIC in their name, but there was nothing “republican” about them. (In the Republican party sense, OR in the sense of a free republic state, like the US would be a democratic republic). See how they react! 😃 ---

Actually, I kinda regret not thinking of the Holocaust-shooting-denial joke myself. The Obama references were just idiotic, though. ---

Ditto. We’re off our game, **Bryan**. Or I haven’t been drinking enough. Or I tried a Crocodile Hunter joke on someone who, it turned out, knew him and I’m still gunshy. Some people whistle in graveyards. Others resort to black humor, but with my recent immersion in the Truther Movement, I shoulda made the connection and the bad joke. even if I didn’t post it. ---

I was wondering who they’ll cast in _Shooting At The Holocaust Museum_. Maybe Mickey Rooney as the ancient white supremacist gunman, Eddie Murphy playing the security guard and Ben Stiller as an unwitting researcher dodging the crossfire. It’d have to be a short subject, unless they can flesh out the plot with hilarious routines in which Ben’s character foils the plans of goonish Stormfronters (played by Mel Gibson and Michael Richards). ---
