that's the line his fans take too, plus freedom of speech
others (incl. me) argue it was not funny and could be seen as hate speech

Jeez, I hadn't heard all that ... A mangled pronunciation of outfits sounding like Auschwitz? That alone I'd be cautiously forgiving of. But if that happens you call yourself an idiot, pretend to put your false teeth back in, and say the sentence properly.

Unless you're Basil Fawlty, don't impersonate Hitler, and just don't say "kill the Jews" even if you're "joking".

and no-one commented on this? :joker:

LT likes hot catholics, is anyone surprised :laugh:

When I think effigies, I usually think scarecrow looking things. They look more foreboding imo. But my memory may not be on trend. :laugh: Admittedly, I only commented because of the artistic aspect... it looks too silly to be damning. It's kind of cute... in an ugly way.
