A German man with a Hitler obsession has been jailed for five months for teaching his pet dog to perform a Nazi salute, according to the British tabloid The Sun.
The paper reports that the dog, named Adolf, had been taught by owner "Roland T" to lift his paw sharply into the air when he heard the words "Heil Hitler." The former car salesman was reportedly caught after he boasted of the trick to police.
Performing a Nazi salute is outlawed in Germany, as is Nazi insignia and Holocaust denial.
According to The Sun, "Roland T" planned to have Adolf put to sleep to mark the anniversary of Hitler's suicide in 1945.

You might have won the award for the most morally bankrupt poster of FR to date. Without doubt, the scariest people I have ever met in Germany and God's wide world are the disaffected dirt at the bottom of the social scale (and yes Germany has a very strong class system even today) who see their salvation in a resurgence of Nazism.
With absolute disrespect for your idiot position, there is nothing funny at all about a German social and mental disorder that between war and the holocaust sent tens of millions to an untimely death.
Your attempts to excuse this or make light of it are unpardonably ignorant and offensive.
Yikes.
Is Lewinski next?

Right now the owner had better teach his dog to say,
“I know nuttink! I hear nuttink! I see nuttink!”
;^)
Ich bin ein Pawlifter
That ranks him high on the Dummkopf scale. It would be like showing your bong collection to the police here.
And the dog should be punished too. I don't accept any of that "I was only following orders" excuse. < /sarc>
Shouldn’t that be “Ich bin Pawlifter”?
That is funny!
They had immense influence in western Germany, but in the meantime they are all dust. We Germans overcame nazism through time. Practically nobody of the contemporary generation feels responsible anymore. The Holocaust happened more than 60 years ago and we are over it. The "common guilt" of Germany might be something foreigners believe into, but not we Germans. We are aware that our country has to deal with a dirty past and nameless crimes, but all the causers are practically death. It is simply over.
You could compare it with the genocide of Indians in the US. This is also over and history.
Since we are the ones who define our attitudes it is up to us to deal with such harmless BS like dogs that are called "Adolf". Who cares? We should stop to carry over the job of the Gestapo. Hitler for sure would not have been amused if a dog would have been named after him. Doing so is quite insulting in Germany. Our police has better things to do than to waste time and money to such foolishness.
The problem I pose is to understand not who were influential leaders in forming the ideas underlying Nazism, but the social forces that made that point of view acceptable and brought the Nazis into power over the bodies, live and dead, of most decent, cultured and educated Germans at that time. It was a politics of disafection, certainly, and England France and communist Russia bore no small part of the responsibility.
Then why didn't they put the dog in jail?!
Run rings around them logically, I do!
Maybe they’ll commute his sentence if he teaches his dog to crap on a swastika.
Well said.
Maybe he could’ve focused on teaching the dog to do its business when he said “Mohammed”, the name of another brutal warlord that people are still bowing to and killing for over a thousand years later.
Well to answer this is easy. The thing is that most Germans of the beginning 30ties were no educated people. They were simply not mature enough for democracy after following imperators, kings and nobelities for hundreds of years. The German Weimarer republic was only 15 years old when Hitler and his circus happened and there was no tradition for democracy. Most people were insecure in the economical difficult times (Germany had a terrible unemployment rate in 1932) and suffered from the treaty of Versailles. They were looking for easy solutions. Hitler was such a easy solution. As a exceptionally gifted speaker he dazzled the common people. This was the reason why 33% voted for Hitler in 1932.
BTW - We Germans deal with simular problems today in eastern Germany. To someone like me it is not understandable that there are 30% population that are dumb enough to vote for the SED (now called PDS, die LINKE), the former communist party of Erich Honecker. Of course there are some nazis in Germany left, but they do not play a practical role anymore in contemporary politics. Their party, the NPD is more or less a idiotic possibility of weird kids to shock their parents.
“With absolute disrespect for your idiot position, there is nothing funny at all about a German social and mental disorder...”
Dang dude, take it easy. Your spittle sprayed me through my computer screen. There are plenty of posters on this thread making “light” of the Nazis (Hitler playing a banjo???), but you single out the German poster for your out of proportion rant. One might be lead to think that the mental disorder on display here is not a German one.
I would think that having the same screen-namesake as Andy “Trail of Tears” Jackson might cause you to think twice before speaking once about holocausts. There are sins and there are sins of fathers. Figure out the difference.
