Dozy Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 The man must be a total idiot! He either didn't notice - or chose to ignore - all the fuss there was when one of Charlie's brats dressed up as a Nazi. Even if he hadn't been stupid to post photos on his Facebook account, he must have realised that there was every possibility that someone would take a photo of him and pass it around. If he couldn't work out that (a) dressing up as Hitler was bound to offend some people and (b) the fact that he had dressed up was bound to get into the public domain, then he must be very arrogant or very silly.

SY LOGISTICS Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 There's a problem with wearing a fancy dress outfit at a fancy dress party? My thoughts exactly . Unless of course we are now going down the road of censoring fancy dress partys ,and what can and cannot be worn at them . Anyway , he wasn`t even a very convincing Hitler , members of the royal family do a much better job. :hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mj.scuba Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Prince Harry once got into trouble for it. Last week an American politician got into hot water after been photographed wearing a nazi uniform. His explanation was he does battle re-enactments, and since in the photograph he was stood next to somebody dressed as an RAF officer seems credible. Now the Council Leader for Harrogate has been suspended by the Conservatives for having a good time at a party wearing Nazi fancy dress. Where did this political correctness come from? Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there once a TV programme called 'Allo 'Allo which showed every week with people dressed as Nazis making goofs of themselves, and it was all perfectly acceptable and humerous? How/when/why did this change occur into anybody donning a Nazi uniform for a party and a laugh must be a fully paid up neo nazi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Erikson Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 They killed a good few million people. There was once a TV programme that had a white man and black man just throwing racist jibes at each other. As we get more global we adapt and realise that what may have been poking fun a few decades ago is just now a bit tasteless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purdyamos Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 It's probably not very diplomatic for a public representative to do it. If Paul Scriven was photographed dressed as a Nazi for a joke one week, and then later had to meet the mayor of Bochum or there was some other council reception to improve trade links with Germany (or whatever), it wouldn't make a very good impression.

Harleyman Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 This just shows the intolerance for freedom of speech and expression in England. Wearing a Nazi uniform may not be in the best of taste but that's the least of the problem. More serious is the creeping tyranny of the righteously correct who are as intolerant of anything that does not conform to their way of thinking as the Nazis intoleration of the Jews.
