His exact words.



Yuppers. It amazes me at the number of people who feel the need to demonize the guy because he was a Nazi-- The operative word here is was. I said this earlier, but I'll say it again. The views of those looking in from the outside are vastly different (And often incorrect) than the views of those on the inside looking outward. Live through a period of time of skyrocketing unemployment and hyperinflation, then we'll talk. It's easy to say what someone else should or shouldn't have done when you live in a vastly different time period.
So in other words, we're expected to play along as he lives out the next 65 years of his life as if this never happened? If only we all could just push the reset button on our lives this easily.

...skyrocketing unemployment and hyperinflation...sounds a lot like the Great Depression. Germans weren't the only ones who had to suffer through tough times, ya know.
