Calling someone a Nazi today shows a depth of historical ignorance and diminishes the devastation of the Holocaust. This is a Nazi........

i agree. the words have lost their impact.

There is no way a person can understand how brutal and savage it was unless they lived it. I know I can only imagine what it was like.

In one book I read it told of how the Sonderkommando, death camp prisoners in work groups that were forced with threats of their own death to dispose of gas chamber victims, would take live babies that survived the gas and swing them by the feet smashing their heads against a post killing them. It was either this or throw a live baby into the ovens. I can go on with other stories like this but I hope you get the point.

If I were a death camp surviving Jew, a Gypsy, a homosexual, or a political prisoner it would seriously anger me to see the name Nazi used just for political character assassination against a person who is nothing like a Nazi.
I understand your point of view, but not all nazis killed people. It was an ideology that led a nation to believe in white christian supremacy. That ideology sure is present in many a racist American.

Well I guess those who don’t know history will just continue to stand on the street corning spouting garbage and acting like a lunatic with a trash mouth. Her mother must be proud of her everytime the video pops up on the internet.

Saw the woman in the video here in The Villages using such horrid language, clearly she has some mental issues. While vile also sad for her.

However, I too believer that "white power" was taken out of context (a favorite tactic of MSM "news").

Amen. It's usually the younger radicals that do that. Just more proof that our educational system is failing.

Speaking of revisionist history... Whether directly or indirectly, ALL Nazi's killed people - over 50 million of them. Guess the fact that many Christian Pastors and other religious leaders were sent to concentration camps is a lie right? Maybe you never learned that Hitler wanted to reestablish the Old Norse religion?

Out of the hundreds of millions of Americans we choose to spend our time discussing the less than one percent!!!!

Worse, however, is to portray that less than one percent as representative of most Americans!!!

Thanx to the media amplifiers and parrots.

I have been calling a racist numerous times because I support the President. Unfortunately the left can not articulate an argument and since history is no longer taught in school, they do not know what they are saying.

Anyone who starts in with that kind of name calling, just loses all credibility with me. No sense in even speaking to someone in that frame of mind.

To me calling someone a Nazi, I think they mean calling someone a Nazi they’re probably referring to someone voting for a certain political party. It’s like I’ve heard several times at work where I hear one black person calling another black person the “N” word. I just don’t get to excited about it. If someone says something you don’t like, just get away from them! Don’t argue with them to a point to get into a fight, it’s not worth it!

I agree. There was a farmer near my house who for eight years posted an eight foot sign calling our previous president a Socialist. Anyone who bothered to study up on socialism would realize that is untrue. Accuracy is more important than name-calling.

You made a good point, today’s parents sometimes do say to many things they shouldn’t in front of their children. Maybe TOTV should post a question, “Where do some children learn violent behavior & bad manners”. You made a very good point in your comment!

If you are referring to the black shirted woman at our recent national news shame, she was obnoxious. I think the “white power” remark was in response to her abuse. I humbly apologize to our African Americans living in TV. Stop hating, we all bleed red, have families and are frightened for them. I do not agree with the violence of the marches but can you imagine having “the talk” with your son or grandson. Black Lives Do Matter!
