What if he had dressed up as Stalin? How about Mao? Would the reaction have been as vociferous? I doubt it. There is no doubt that people should remember what the genocidal Nazis did in WWII, but this reaction is ridiculous and belittles the memory of all those who were murdered. He was at a private costume party. He wasn't at a rally and he wasn't speaking sympathetically. Let the idiot be.

You have to ask yourself this question...a costume shop goes out and has a Nazi uniform for rent...who would rent it? I can't think of a single person I know...that would rent the thing. Now, if you had a gorilla outfit, or a pirate outfit, or a Santa Claus suit...then maybe...but a Nazi outfit? I won't blame this kid...he had to have handlers behind him each day...and they should have advised him of the stupid situation.

I think the kid ought to be packed up and sent off to a ranch in southern Colorado for four years...and let him mature out of public sight. Thats the best way for a guy like him to get life-smart.

John Kerry has been dressed up as a U.S. senator for 20 years and not a peep from the liberal media, what gives?

Not that I support dragging this out, but the British don't hate Hitler as the abstraction of a murderous dictator. They hate him because he bombed the hell out of their country and forced them to fight a terrible war for six years. It's a little more personal to them than anything Mao or Stalin did.
