My friend Kevin was born and raised Mennonite. He is still a practicing Mennonite. He held completely to the non-violence ethic of the Mennonites -- until he visited Dachau.

Now he debates with his pastor, and was nearly drummed out of his church for stating that, in his opinion, war and violence are sometimes justified.

Laughing at the Klan, the ANP, the BNP, the Aryan Brotherhood, or any of the other such groups don't make them disappear. They respond, "Hitler was laughed at, too" or even "Jesus was laughed at and mocked just as we are."

On "Talk of the Nation" just a little bit ago it was said that Irving said in Court that he learned that the Holocaust actually happened in the 1990s. Okaaaaaaaaaaaaay...but he did NOTHING to change what he had written and said earlier and in fact pursued a libel suit in England against a woman professor of Holocaust Studies.
