    Discard their personal beliefs about race and religion if you'd like, but Hitler military ideas were actually pretty brilliant.

    If the Japanese hadn't gotten the U.S. involved, Hitler would have certainly taken all of Europe. Then it would've come down to the U.S. as the last defense. I daresay we'd be speaking German today if the U.S. hadn't gotten involved when it did.

    But I'll leave that for the war buffs.

    man, im sorry... i bet that still disappoints you. you were so close to the dream... no homos, no minorities, now jews, just a world full of lily-white christians. maybe next time eh?

    yeah, id have executed hitler. along with many, many other people.
  • Execute him? no...just get Prescott Bush to stop funding him, and he'd run out of gas soon enough.

    Such a small little world of evil, murderous politicians it is.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    It must be nice to have so much power over other people's lives.
    All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

    I think a case like that, I'd have no problem losing my humanity, and dipping him in steak juices, then turning Micheal Vicks dogs on him after they hadn't been fed in a few days....but then that would be cruel and unusual punishment for the dogs, so instead I'd shoot him in the liver and watch him die painfully and somewhat slowly, it takes 8 to 20 minutes I believe. I wouldn't consider this a government sanctioned execution, just murder, and if lived back then I'd probably have no problem spending the rest of my life in prison for doing it....but now reality is setting in, and I'd leave it to someone else...if someone else did it, then I'd wouldn't have a problem in that case, but I doubt I could realistic do it, though I never had a problem with the idea of using my M16 if warranted when I was in the Army...guess this isn't as easy a question as my personal feelings on Hitler.

    "If only the public would understand! If only the public were more intelligent, which in this case at least would mean more human! If only the statement I repeat so often could be understood! There are no accidents; everything is the result of law. All phenomena are a succession of causes and effects. The criminal is the result of all that went before him and all that surrounds him. Like every other mortal, he is a subject for pity and not for hatred. If society is not safe while he is at large, he must be confined and kept under guard and observation. He must be kept until he is safe and a favorable environment found for him. If he will never be safe for society, he should never be released. He must not be humiliated, made to suffer unduly, despised or harried. He must be helped if he can be helped. This should be the second, if not the first object of his confinement."
    I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire

    Hitler to the death penalty if he were caught and judged?

    What would you do?

    i dunno... just a thought...

    I wouldn't. I think it's hypocritical and wrong. I'd lock him up in solitary as secure as possible.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    So I will go on about Hitler. He kept the population down. Good thing. His scientists came up with revolutionary stuff. Good thing. He went a little too far to control the world. Bad thing. He wanted to keep Germany, German. Good thing. No I don't think he should have been put to death if he was caught. Life in prison would be good enough.

    Keeping the population down via systematic murder is good?

    If another such leader rises to power, will you serve-up your family to help keep the population down?

    i would say i wouldn't do that... but i dunno... if the situation were at hand, considering how i can lose it sometimes... without making any sense of anything, i'd probably do the same. God forbid.

    I am usually a very gentle fella, but, growing up the son of a holocaust survivor, I would risk my life for revenge!

    i don't think you're the only one... i bet all of us in here would. when emotions get involved who cares about our morals, ethics, or idealisms?
