Do you realize there are people still alive that lost siblings, parents, or whole families due to direct orders from that little person. How do you suppose they would feel reading the words you wrote even IF out of context?

In other words, painful memories of the grim mêlée that was the first half of the 20th century trump my right to give an honest appraisal of the man responsible. Heck, I would argue that it is our DUTY to make such appraisals, if one is to prevent them from ever happening again. There is much to respect--albeit little or nothing to admire or imitate--about Adolf Hitler.

As for reading my words out of context, the only way someone could do that is if someone else quoted only part of what I said, which you and AFV have both done. I'm sorry, but I will not apologize if someone is offended by an artificial mutation of something I said.

Yes, yes, yes, you have to keep saying over and over again how much you respect Adolph Hitler and the other adversary. You have a real fan club going.
