A man shouted ‘Heil Hitler' and ‘Heil Trump’ during ‘Fiddler on the Roof’ — and peopl

[signalmankenneth]

Several minutes into intermission during a musical about Jewish traditions, a man stood up, raised his arm in a Nazi salute and started to shout.

Members of the audience said the man called out “Heil Hitler!” and “Heil Trump!” at the Wednesday-night performance of “Fiddler on the Roof” at Hippodrome Theatre in Baltimore.

“People started running,” Rich Scherr, who was in the audience, told The Washington Post. “The next thing I expected to hear was gunshots, frankly.”

The incident occurred just weeks after 11 people were gunned down at Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh in the deadliest attack on Jews in U.S. history. The alleged gunman, Robert Bowers, is accused of saying that he wanted to “kill Jews” while he was in the synagogue.

Wednesday, showing people at the Baltimore theater standing, some shouting to “get out!” After the salute, he said, “a lot of people started heading toward the exits.”

They should have not run for the exits. The should have beat the living shit out of the idiot.

My guess is that the joker was trying to make a statement about Trump. It doesn't seem that it went as planned.

Is that like yelling "Fire" in a Theater?

If people can't yell "Nazi" in a theater, how are they going to protest the price of concessions?

That's a good point. I hadn't thought of that. Thanks, 3d.

Or, ... they could have all started applauding and ... well, you know how the Pork-Gobblers are?

Clearly. So what can we ban to prevent that from happening in the future?

Well, I suggest we hire 'Thought Police' (like Miss Phantasmal) that could go around and muzzle people. Naturally, that would just be a start until we get the 'Three Generation Work Camps' set up.

An allegedly drunk theatergoer felt compelled to shout "Hail Hitler, hail Trump!" after a scene in Fiddler on the Roof reminded him of how much he hated the president, according to a police report.

I'm guessing Kenny assumed he was a Trump supporter.

"For this to happen not even three weeks removed from the deadliest attack on Jews in U.S. history, and just days after the FBI released 2017 hate crime data, is deeply disturbing and speaks to the state of hate in our country," said Jonathan Greenblatt, the CEO and national director of the Anti-Defamation League.

"This cannot be normalized. We need to continue to speak out against hate and bigotry in all forms," Greenblatt said in the statement.

I guess this guy's point is that no one should hate Trump?

You get a mulligan for it while watching "backdraft".

Watch your filthy mouth, piss gums.

Is it a coincidence this stuff comes along with the rise of nationalism?
