1. And cue up the Horst Wessel Song
Do all of the posters who have been saying we shouldn't call them Nazis want to chime in? Hitler and his henchpeople didn't begin by murdering 12 million people... it started with Dachau, a camp run specifically for politically incorrect detainees... ie people who didn't like Hitler and his regime.
