I am constantly impressed by people's ability to draw comparisons between things that are clearly very different in effort to downplay their significance Whoa, chill. First, I gotta defend my buddy CTB here. I'm pretty sure he doesn't mean of everything he said. He didn't mean of wanting of England allying themselves to Hitler. He was just saying that for laughs, he didn't mean any harm. Sometimes people say stuff about things that they don't fully understand and stuff that is usually told as a joke into something that seems harmful. Now, on what you said about me. I could barely think of what happened in the Holocaust, and the disgusting thing about it is, at this day people are still persecuting Jews and doing horrible things like making bomb threats. I wasn't trying to downplay it's significance. I was just making jokes so we could get away from the touchy subject. I wasn't trying to harm anything or anyone. I guess it did sound like I didn't care about the Holocaust, and I'm sorry about that, but I do know how serious the Holocaust is. I'm sorry if I'm coming across too sensitive but when people make jokes about things like this that they don't understand it can have consequences such as giving off the impression that it's not that serious or that threats don't still apply today. There was an actual bomb found a couple of blocks from where my Jewish school is just a couple of months ago. People with nazi sentiments are still real threats, threats that we can't deal with if the majority of the country deny they exist as many are doing. If you'd like to change the topic from a touchy subject then by all means go ahead but please don't do it like that.
