I suppose I did over-react. My apologies. Perhaps I am in the wrong since I seem to be the only voice that opposes this application. Before coming to the web development world, I was a counselor for troubled youth and adults with mental disabilities (2 separate jobs); our words were important in those positions and I think I'm carrying that over into this current space. And, I wasn't complaining about the short connection. Everything's inter-related. But I feel that instead of using Hitler as the constant, some other object/person might have been more considerate; I still believe in the power of words. We have those little 'karma' points next to our usernames on this list, don't we? Is the karma just meant to indicate that what we say jives with the collective whole? Like I said, that was my second post; I may have misunderstood what the community 'rules' are. |

I wouldn't have known his name, or that he died at 6 months. Or that his own parents directly petitioned to Hitler to have him killed and called him "The Monster."
Or that merely 3 weeks after his death, when Hitler realized no one would stop him, he started systematically compiling lists of children with severe disabilities to euthanize.
And that it was this systematic killing of children that led to the systematic killing of disabled adults, and then the systematic killing of entire ethnic groups.
(Insect diuretic hormones -> Evolution -> Action T4 -> Adolf Hitler, and then I read Action T4 and went to Gerhard Kretschmar)
