Republicans have a Nazi porn problem, again. Virginia Republican lieutenant governor nominee John Reid is facing mounting political pressure after a report tied him to a Tumblr blog that reposted Nazi-themed pornography and violent sexual content. The allegations, which Reid has denied, have fueled fresh calls for his withdrawal from the race.

No. FIrst it was Mussolini, then he was hung in the streets. His lifeless body swinging by a rope. Then Hitler, shot himself in the head. Then Tojo was publicly hung after a public trial where he was shamed and executed.

That's the story of nazis. That's how it ends.

These new nazis are no different. They're not worse. They're just copycats.

Interestingly, when talking about killing humans, the past tense of hang is in fact “hanged”.
