A German theme park quickly shut down a new ride -- not due to safety reasons, but because critics said it resembled "flying swastikas."

The "Eagle Fly" ride at Tatzmania, an amusement park in Löffingen, a city roughly 60 miles northwest of Zurich, Switzerland, was widely criticized after a video of it in motion reportedly circulated online.

That’s because it’s not racist like Dukes of Hazard.

All the Nazi were portrayed as evil or stupid and ALL played by Jewish actors of German background( most I believe escaped Nazi Germany in the 30’s. ).

At first I couldn’t see it either as I was looking at the thingy’s people would ride in that look like airplanes.

You’ve got to look at he picture as a whole, and the two objects, one at each end of the arm, do look like the Nazi symbol. Once that’s obvious, it’s really obvious.

It’s not the German’s fault. I’d bet it’s either the Russians, Trump or some 2nd Amendment loser.

Reminds me of Penny’s teapot that some loonies claimed resembled Hitler. I don’t recall if Penny’s withdrew it from sale.

Robert Clary who played Lebeau is the last of the original characters who’s still alive. Kenneth Washington, who played Baker in season 6, and replaced Kinch is also still alive.

I’m still amazed that Leon Askin, who played General Burkhalter, made it to 97.

My comment to the video:

Hmm, yep, them are swastikas. I got a couple of questions for the designer of that abortion. And I’m absolutely not encouraging anyone to dynamite it into a recollection of Berlin April 1945.

I'm amazed they haven't yanked "Hogan's Heroes" off the air.

Yep. I really need to buy that DVD set.
