Really? First, You do not say anything like Stupid Joe said..It will not work on any level anywhere. It just shows how stupid he is.
Kindda like Bachmann getting John Wayne mixed up with John Wayne Gacy..doesn't work..actually it is worse, cause it pisses off anyone who knows history or happens to care about those ten million murdered in the Holocaust. Good-by Joe.
If you link to the above about Bristol, she also sinned beyond redemption..
Terrible ratings for her show, much less than expected...plus the fact that her show really stinks and makes people very
uncomfortable. Hit those links to get those reviews and comments by fellow DUs
.Good by Bristol
Both of you had your 15 seconds of fame..good by and good riddance. We won't miss you, but we will laugh at you as you
shut the door behind you.

(3,041 posts)and I don`t own a gun, but I do find the actual argument being made to have some credibility (regardless of the tastelessness of using the holocaust for political gain). If you planned to set up a fascist military regime in a country and institute some kind of "cleansing", ethnic or otherwise, wouldn`t you first want to get guns out of the hands of private citizens who might at some point oppose you? Yes, it`s a stretch to say the Holocaust could have been prevented - but some of those rounded up, if they`d decided to fight back, might have gotten away. And the oppressors might not have been so bold if they had known their prey might have guns.

"And the oppressors might not have been so bold if they had known their prey might have guns."
It may sound like a logical point but..........................If private citizens had guns, and used them against the legal
laws of the time, and shot some of the people who were sent to round them up, immediately the totalitarian state in which
the laws were, would send in the army or cops and immediately..KILL the shooters..
Once the Nazis got in, no one would believe that they would indeed do waht they eventually did. Couldn't happen in a modern state like Germany. Hitler wouldn't start another war so soon..after the Great War..that killed millions of people..Would he?
Remember there was a peace movent in the mid 20s thru the mid 30s. No one wanted another war..It would be much worse
people thought. After Hitler broke his word in 1937 in Czechoslovakia, then the rest of the world thought there would probably be war with him.
Well, Hitler already had a 5 year start on rearmament, and the Bismark (that huge battleship) was already being built..To say that Hitler and the rest ofthe oppressors might not be so bold..if guns were taken from the Jews and others who were exterminated...is absurd.

don't know the truth of this, but it sounds reasonable to me.

It was defending what they took over...well that is a different story..
Buy a history book.

(26,142 posts)It was VERY bad. It makes The Kardashians look like Downton Abbey, and I'm barely exaggerating.

(81,508 posts)Although with the backup they could get from their side of the aisle, with all those billionaires with wide-open check books, they should find more support, or funding for other shows, I'm sure. There are suckers born every minute, including rich ones.

14 June 2012 11:13 AM, PDT | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »
Bristol Palin is back in the TV spotlight yet again, with a new reality show called "Bristol Palin: Life's A Tripp" premiering next week on LIfetime. It's the third reality TV go-round for Sarah Palin's oldest daughter after stints on "Dancing With The Stars" and "Sarah Palin's Alaska." The new show will be centered on Palin's re-located life in Los Angeles as she raises her 3-year-old son Tripp.
Monday on Fox & Friends," Palin indicated she some regrets about the way the show turned out. "If I would have known it was my own name and so much in my life is gonna be shown on this show, I think I would reconsider it and think about it more," she said.
Controversy is already plaguing "Life's A Tripp." While filming, Palin got into an altercation with a man at a bar, and cell-phone video of the heated exchange went viral. »

So, the name of the show is: Bristol Palin - Life's a Tripp
and the show is ABOUT HER LIFE
BUT she did not KNOW it would be her NAME and about her LIFE? LOL

She will take no responsibility for this. Cause she had nothing to do with it...
