ORIGINAL: FirmhandKY "Fischer" and "Geller"? Never frigging heard of them. They are not "prominent" in any way that matters. Firm When Adolf Hitler led the unsuccessful Beer Hall Putsch in Munich, Germany, accompanied by Rudolf Hess (eventually Deputy Fuehrer and later found guilty of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials, dying in prison), Hermann Goering (later found guilty of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials and who committed suicide in prison), Ernst Roehm (head of the Nazi’s Paramilitary group, the S.A., until later executed by Hitler), and Julius Streicher (found guilty of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials and executed) in November of 1923, there were, no doubt, many Germans who said at that time: “Hitler? Hess? Goring? Roehm? Streicher? Never frigging heard of them. They are not "prominent" in any way that matters.” Of course they were correct - those non-entities never became "'prominent' in any way that matters” and just disappeared, forgotten by everyone by 1924, a year later. [;)] Look, I don't always agree with Firm, but this post is ridiculous. 1. Firm has never claimed to not know prominent people in the government, which is what the Nazis listed were. He has claimed not to know some relatively un-prominent conservatives. Hell, I never heard of them before - why should he? 2. Hitler's goal was to rule the world and he had no issue with slaughtering millions of people along the way. To draw a parallel between that kind of powerful evil and a couple of loonies that scream about turkey killing methods is ludicrous.
