These are the kinds of statements that are just dumb attempts to perpetuate the victim complex. The media isn't reporting it? What do you call Drudge, Fox News, Glenn Beck's website, et al.? That's not the media? Fox fans love to bash the "lamestream media" and then turn around and crow about how Fox is the most watched news channel. You can't have it both ways.

Auschwitz the musical, I can see it now the dancers on the field go into this prop that looks like a factory and come out the other side in black pjs with a skelton painted on them,, and they dance for joy that have been liberated from this life,,and the music could be Micheal Jacksons thriller to spice it up,, it would be just great, oh my where's my agent..

This might be entertaining but I think this would go over like a fart in a space suit.

The incident was found to be inappropriate. The marching band should stick to music and the usual band uniform. The theatrics is best left to the theater department.

We carry on...

I did't say fox and freinds weren't reporting this,,, where do you think I get this stuff to share with you from a crystal ball, by the way mines broke. I meant the mainstream wasn't reporting except fox excuse me I'll try to be more clear..

America 2012:

The US has a gigantic trade deficit with the biggest dictatorship in the world, their "marts" are full with stuff made there.
People who think they are patriots by putting up a China-made flag sticker on their car, twitter the news on their icrap device - made in factories with work conditions so bad that the workers there start a riot:

Freedom is at stake because a school band in onehorsetown, US performs a little play.

I could only laugh at the irony dripping from it, if it wasn't so damned sad.


Hey Yubba: you want to stand up for freedom? Stop supporting a country where re-education camps exist, look where you buy your stuff. That's a little baby step which requires as few effort as posting on a board in the web. And stand up for the freedom of others - be happy to live in a country where freedom of academia and freedom of art exist. The last time I checked, they were still there. You also have the right to report the school to the police, if they did something illegal. Defend all these rights, as well as the right to have a different opinion.

I'll close my rant with a little quote:

"Freedom only for government supporters, only for the members of a party – however numerous they may be – is no freedom. Freedom is always the freedom of those who think differently, to voice their opinion. Not because of the fanaticism of justice, but because all the vitalizing, wholesome, and purifying in political freedom depends on this characteristic, and its effects cease to work when freedom becomes a privilege."

Well I can't be to picky when I'm digging through a dumpster,, Have you looked on the back of your computer and that big screen monitior and see where it was made, or that i phone you are use-ing.
I guess you don't have a problem with that idea of makeing Auchwitz the musical. I had this arguement with neon samaiari ,, they shouldn't have used kids, that didn't know the history of the event,, I can't say for a fact the kids didn't know the history,, that will come out when this story unfolds. But this lays the question what are they teaching our kids,,if they are not teaching our kids how to be citizens of this great nation and how to function in it,, then what are we paying all this money out to education for,, to teach our kids that communism is a nice warm and fuzzy little bunny..

I guess you don't have a problem with that idea of makeing Auchwitz the musical

Is that a follow on to Springtime for Hitler or is it the penultimate song in Hitler the musical?
Though personally I do prefer the plain comedy films when it comes to the holocaust.

No silly that isn't in the politics or history lesson where the kids are indoctrinated by the evil communist capitalist new world order secret global media and banking conspiracy, the little bunny is in the religion lesson as its all about easter.

Damn you, Tribesman, for answering faster than I did and mentioning Springtime for Hitler!
Speaking of comedies: "Train Of Life" and "Life Is Beautiful" come to my mind, both more tragiccomedies though. Can you recommend other good ones?

Comedies and Commemorations are two very different things. Would you feel as dismissive about this if they had commemorated hitler and the nazis?

About Schmidt. But I may be biased because I'm a Jack Nicholson fan.

I'm sorry you belong to the 47% about whom Romney gives a damn about, this way I can even less understand you supporting him.
Since you asked: monitor: Slovakia, smartphone (non i): Korea, computer: different components: mostly Taiwan, but also Germany - though my mouse is from China
I am not claiming to be hollier than though, I am talking about how not to support a dictatorship with only little effort - just keep you eyes open what and where you buy. Even if you have little money, I am sure you sometimes buy stuff. For example you can support your local community when you buy groceries from the farmers market and not from the big food monopolists. This leaves the money in the pockets of the people you care for.

Auschwitz the musical? Why not, if it's good. We already have or people or . The comparision is there, as all those - just like the little HS play - did not glorify the things that happened back then. Hell, in Germany there are people who do plays dressed up as Romans, a bloody occupation force back then.

The kids you are talking about attend a senior HS. I am sure it is still the same as during our school times: they learn about the Russian Revolution in grade 11 or 12. We didn't learn about Communism as fuzzy bunnies back then, but how it was according to scientific research (=history). You can certainly obtain the curriculum of the school district in charge of the HS and the titles of the books they use to learn history if you are concerned the students get indoctrinated.
