When the Nazis tattooed numbers on Jewish prisoners, it was done as an affront to their religion
The Jewish prohibition against tattoos. That was just the Nazis' way of being that much more vindictive and racist. You could expect the Nazis to take that extra step to prove that they were Nazis.
It was called "commitment".
Today's American proto-fascists just can't reach that same level of commitment. They toy with it, but just can't reach it.
Now, I wouldn't call John Sununu a Nazi. Besides, he wouldn't cut it as one anyway, as slip shod as he is. However, I do understand vindictive and racist language when I hear it, and his comments about Colin Powell fit that description quite well.
Who knows, maybe Sununu really wants to step up his game to get to the Nazi level of vindictiveness and racism… One way that he can get to that level is by spewing his crap in the Original German for a change.
That way he wouldn't sound so much like a half-assed Nazi wannabe and take a stab at being the real thing for instead.
A few "Seig Heils" at the end of his sentences just might do the trick. Not to mention some goose-stepping and sporting some fabulously tailored black Hugo Boss jodhpurs.
When and if he does, we'll all know that he's stopped being a wannabe Nazi and finally made it to his much vaunted goal.
Beloved Cyclist "Chuey" Munkanta Beaten Unconscious and Arrested By Police
Kachusha "Chuey" Munkanta is one of the most beloved figures in the San Francisco cycling community. He's known internationally for his hand-made cycling caps, made and sold right here in the Mission. And everyone, from MASH to PD Bird, know him to be a "peaceful" and "non-violent" person. He even delivers coffee, by bike, for De La Paz Coffee Roasters--a company undeniably of peace.
Thursday night/ Friday morning Chuey stopped on the side of the street in the Mission when he saw the cops having 4 Latinos lined up against a gate. He stopped to make sure the youth were being fairly treated.
The cops then asked him to cross the street, when Chuey said he couldn't observe from across the street. They (2-3 cops) jumped him as he was hugging his bike. They wrestled him to the ground then continued to push him into the ground, twisting his arm, slamming his head into the ground. He was in jail for almost 24 hours and released after his family paid bail. They charged him with 3 felonies for assaulting 3 cops with enough force to cause grave bodily harm and 2 misdemeanors for resisting arrest.
Chuey was released on $150,000 bail and arraigned yesterday afternoon at the Superior Court of California, where he was issued a public defender. Chuey is also faced with steep medical costs after having to visit the ER for his injuries, where doctors advised him to have a cat scan.

Isn't voting for Republicans just an awkward way to reward failure?
She's waiting for an answer, America.
