Steel 0 #76 March 24, 2006 Quote> Google "Godwin's Law." I googled it and read in in Wilkapedia. Good point. However, since you always bring up the African-American struggle when it totally doesn't relate to the situation, what can we call that phenonemum. You can call it "Bruno's Law", I like that since I coined it., ,If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass. Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound.

Gravitymaster 0 #77 March 24, 2006 Quote>Ok, lets follow your train of thought. Do you understand why Hitler >believed that Germany would be better off getting rid of the Jews? Even better. Yes, it's just like Nazi Germany. Google "Godwin's Law." From Wikipedia: QuoteGodwin has argued, that hyperbolic overuse of the Hitler/Nazi comparison should be avoided. Avoiding such hyperbole, he argues, is a way of ensuring that when valid comparisons to Hitler or Nazis are made, such comparisons have the appropriate impact. I believe in this case, the comparison is valid. - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steel 0 #78 March 24, 2006 QuoteQuoteStill it puzzles my mind how somebody could look at a defenseless animal, shoot it and get pleasure out of it. In that sense, I will hold firm that people who hunt by choice and not by necessity are assholes. Let's put it this way: if you and I fundamentally agree with each other on something like this, you know it has to be right. And everyone else is wrong. Yeah, I do believe eventually the ancestors of the people who don't get it, will. But unfortunately while we wait on that countless animals will suffer. ,If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass.

But now you need to concede that you are guilty of "Bruno's law", or as an African American woman put it on Bill O'reilly a couple of days ago when comparing gay marriage to the African American struggle. You need to stop using African Americans as your poster child. ,If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass. Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound.

Its not Fox News or Newsmax so I dont know if this is a credible source. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitler Hitler was not sure who his paternal grandfather was, but it was probably either Johann Georg Hiedler or his brother Johann von Nepomuk Hiedler. There have been rumours that Hitler was one-quarter Jewish and that his paternal grandmother, Maria Schicklgruber, had become pregnant after working as a servant in a Jewish household in Graz. During the 1920s, the implications of these rumours along with his known family history were politically explosive, especially for the proponent of a racist ideology. Opponents tried to prove that Hitler, the leader of the anti-Semitic Nazi Party, had Jewish or Czech ancestors. Although these rumours were never confirmed, for Hitler they were reason enough to conceal his origins. Soviet propaganda insisted Hitler was a Jew, though more modern research tends to diminish the probability that he had Jewish ancestors. Historians such as Werner Maser and Ian Kershaw argue this was impossible, since the Jews had been expelled from Graz in the 15th century and were not allowed to return until well after Maria Schicklgruber's alleged employment.
