Guten Tag from Die Mutterland

[JohannVonPussenBootz]

I am Johann VonPussenBootz and I am der German cousin of one of your favorite friends, Oskar der Katze. I have come to claim Ponyfans.com for die Mutterland. I am here to watch all your posts to make sure you are not posting about geldings and shetland ponies or anything else that Herr Orsini, Herr Turner and Herr Jones don't want to see on das American Football board. If you do, I will move them to the "Around The Hilltop Board." Not even your hero, Herr Oscar can save you now!

Being "freaked out" about displays of Nazi flags even those modified in jest is not PC but simply an understanding and deep appreciation by all educated and rational people of the evil and injustice that flag represents. If this country and the world is to ever find peace for its people, the lessions, horrors and sacrifice of WWII must continually be taught and never be forgotten.

Oscar and his cousin are the only cats I care for. They are "The Most Interesting Cats in the world".

Connecting Nazi symbols with SMU even in a joking manner, using SMU logos implying Nazism and SMU logos saluting in a Hitler-esque manner may be racist and is certainly offensive to all the victims and families that suffered and had loved ones killed in Nazi death camps.

I don't think most "survivors" would be offended, though they'd most certainly think we're wasting our time

Hogan's Heroes could not be made today.

Is Johann saluting the Cheer Fabric cleaner ad in remembrance of the Burgers and Cheer fiasco?

Hogan's Heroes could not be made today.

Why? Not exactly pro-Nazi. As I recall, American POW's operating an underground resistance network against the Nazi's from the prison camp.

I saw a list of "worst shows of all time" from a few years ago that listed Hogan's Heros as the #1 worse because it "humanized nazis".

First off, if suvivors of WWII can watch, star in, and enjoy it, how can we now complain?

Second, it is more important to view nazis as people, so you cannot write them off simply as "evil" and instead must face the true nature of humanity.

Third, all the germans in the shows were complete buffoons!

Most German people were not per se "evil" or even a member of the Nazi movement. However, if you believe the Nazi movement was not "evil", you need some remedial history lessons or go read "Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" . Nazism was a racist political movement that committed genocide as well as other atrocities and war crimes in the name of creating a race pure German empire. The Nazi's both in it's leadership and as a movement was by any definition "evil".

And evil is a part of human nature. They were not special people in the history of man kind. There are millions around us just as capable in the right place at the right time to perpetrate evil. To write off the architects of nazi germany as special "evil" people ignores the greatest lesson that we should learn from that part of history.

I vaguely remember a few folks after 911 wanting to H bomb the entire middle east.
