Nazi salute and sign in post by two students in Minnesota condemned by school officials


School administrators in a town outside Minneapolis are condemning as "anti-Semitic" and "outrageous" a social media post showing two students giving a Nazi salute in front of a poster that appears to make light of Hitler and Nazis.

The two students from Minnetonka High School are pictured giving the Nazi salute while in front of an invitation to a dance that reads: “Sweethearts would be a Hit(ler) w/ you, and I could Nazi myself going w/ anyone else. Be Mein? Yes or Nein?.”

According to Minnetonka Schools Superintendent Dennis Peterson, both the students posted the picture featuring the Nazi salute on social media and it was widely reposted on Facebook. After the picture came to the attention of school administrators, the students deleted it, the superintendent said.

He called it "an outrageous act by two of our students."

COMMENT:-

Children are noisy - that's "their job".

Teenagers are stupid - that's "THEIR job".

Big flap, dumb kids, crappy education.

On the other hand, more governments have fallen from laughter than from bullets so maybe the "best" way of dealing with the Nazis is to make sure that they know that everyone is laughing at them because they are so stupid.
