Talk about lowering yourself to their level. If you want to deny the holocaust that's your right....I don't care if I don't agree or not....thats not the issue. :no1:<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Holocaust denial is already a criminal offence in several European countries, including Germany and Austria. It is not a specific crime in Britain, though UK officials said it could already be tackled under existing legislation.</div> Sad, that they have to enact laws against certain opinions.
These are laws that show that the left can get just as retarded as the right if left unchecked. It's completly retarded to force people to accept that it happened if they don't want to, of corse it is Europe and they forced Jesus upon everyone for centuries.

How exactly did they set us back 70 years? They revamped our military, though that's likely due to nesscessity over anything else, They passed a major infistructure Bill which is going to benefit us all. Just because the Whitehouse has F*cked up doesn't mean that the Conservitive congress did as well, the Democrats got control of congress because of the whitehouse F*ck ups, and because of a few sleezy senators.
I think Holocaust denial is disgusting. It makes me sick to think people think it was just set up, a joke. Also the people that deny it have all these wack theorys. I watched a little deal about Holocaust denail last Thursday. They think that the Holocaust was set up on a stage. Actors, created stages, etc. Seriously you have to have some kind of mental problem to think that.As for it being a law to face jail time to deny it. Idk what to think about that. Seems a little crazy. But then agian you can face jail time in Germany if you do the arm Heil Hitler. But that has more of a meaningIf people didnt deny the Holocaust in the first place, there would be no such thing as this law

Just say the word.
As for my opinion on the topic, if I met a holocaust denier in person I'd probably knock him out and stomp him until he was close to dead, I can't defend legislation on criminalizing opinions, even if the opinions are hateful. But I would beat up anybody who dared try to say to me that the holocaust never happened, and they'd be in the wrong.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (gentile @ Apr 18 2007, 12:45 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>If you don't want to support this candid treat, please allow me to do it in your stead.
