Hitler is offensive to me. There is nothing funny about over 6 million dead. I'm sorry this has gone on the board. I know of peoeple he had killed.

Must not be a big fan of Mel Brooks' "The Producers" either. (The original one. The remake sucked.)

So only the 6 million Jewish Holocaust deaths are offensive to you? What about the millions of non-jews killed in Nazi death camps, not to mention the 45 million plus deaths throughout Europe during WWII?

I agree absolutely. There is nothing worse than watching people laugh and express pleasure about a historical figure that caused so much pain and torture. Where have our virtues gone? And to post this on such a day as 9/11 is even more disrespectful. What's next? To post about 9/11 and have people laugh and express pleasure over this day in our history

Jeez people, laughter is the best medicine. If we can't mock something after over 50 years, when can we? It's not like anyone is propping Hitler up as some kind of hero or good guy. They're using part of a movie about him and using it as a mockumentary.

What do you expect. We have been bashed on all sides about political correctness for so long, people are offended if the wind blows in the wrong direction and they expect someone else to correct their preceived problem.

This country has lost it's sense of humor and it's ability to laugh at itself.

I just find it a little bit strange-----no, the word I am looking for is OUTRAGEOUS, that an earlier post, (calling for a little civility), was found to be offensive and was closed, and this one is not found to be offensive. Is THIS what Skkorp intended when he set up this board.

That is just a little disconcerting-----However, they will have to find a way to pay them. That should help offset some of the reward for the niners.

Did somebody piss in your cheerios? The intentions of this video were not to take the holocaust or the repercussions of WWII lightly nor try to martyr Hitler. We are making fun of our football rival the 49ers in a colorful fashion. For God's sake this was a clip from a movie, not of any actual events that occurred. If your angry at this, you should be angry about the many movies and documentaries that were created about the Third Reich and the Holocaust.

And by the way, you are speaking to someone who has a holocaust survivor in his family.....

He didn't specify anything about the holocaust. Just people that have died as a result of Hitler.

As for the debate in general: Hitler was a monster, but non one is revering him with this. No one is making him to be less of a monster, less evil. No one is joking about the things he did.

If something like this is offensive to you, I'm sure the people who made it/posted it are sorry you feel that way. But I don't think it's offensive to most and it shouldn't be removed.

You can do a search on YouTube and this same scene was re-captioned(if that is such a word) several times with different subjects.

I don't see how it can be offensive, its making fun of his insanity by applying a sports spin to it. We all know Hitler was a monster and nothing in that clip glorifies him or casts him in a good light.

Also if you've never seen the movie Downfall (where this clip is from) I highly recommend it.
