A brief search on dnforum suggests there are already 48 threads involving Mr. Hitler.

I'd like to suggest a rule where any thread which includes comparisons to Nazi Dictators will be closed.

I disagree with you and agree that Bush is Hitler mascarating as a president. Only difference is Bush is getting away with it

Why aren't we allowed to talk about Hitler?

Of course he was a horrible man, but we must learn from the past, not ignore it.

I am glad to see so many ardent defenders of free speech. GiantDomains, I like your approach, and I will try to do like you suggested :biggrin:

@Beachie, regarding "Nazi Dictators"; I am trying not to get too much involved in this debate myself, but I am sure our friends in the politics section can come up with some useful suggestions.

Seems to me you know nothing about politics at all...
