Further David, it's quite a bit easier for us to come to the conclusion that the brown shirts was a bad organization, having never had a family member in them, much less a father. To Schwarzenegger's credit, he doesn't try to pass the brown shirt issue off by "we didn't know" or some other blather. Even with his dad in the group, he realized it was wrong. He has tried to attone for that as far back as 1990.
If there were the slightest hint of Schwarzenegger being a racist, I'd be concerned. I am not concerned about this issue with him. I think it's a shame that it was ever brought up in light of the way he has conducted himself.
Mentioning things from a person's father's past is wrong, unless there is any hint of that same behavior in the son. I don't khow why this was ever addressed by the press.
No, I just can't imagine.... not! SLIME JOB ALERT!

The former Soviet Union is full of people who were members of the Communist Party. Arnold's father had no more connection with the Holocaust than these Russians did to the Gulag and the mass starvings in the Ukraine.
