Hitler's 39 living relatives revealed

Do you think it's right for them to go public? Hitler was the man responsible, not his family. Further, the trio living in America escaped Nazi Germany.

 

Yes. That doesn't sound insane at all.

And...

 

Oh GEEZ.

Can you imagine finding out you're related to Hitler?!?!

I don't really see the need to track down his relatives or third cousins or whatever. I'm not sure they have a right to go public;I'm assuming that actually naming the group's new name is a bit of a breach of privacy.

 

Maybe they also believe that if there is a living genetic relative that it might happen again....

 

Indeed . That's one portrait we won't be seeing hanging over the fireplace, I bet.

 

This seems pretty wrong to me.

 

We all saw The Boys from Brazil. All the little Hitler clones are down there.

Even if all this is true, so effing what?

This information potentially puts those thirty-nine lives at risk. I don't see the justification for this study. The people involved should be ashamed of themselves.

 

Why does anyone care who the distant living relatives of Hitler are? It doesn't help anyone or uncover anything that would make a difference. I am highly curious and always err on the side of knowing everything we can just for the sake of knowing, but this is one instance in which knowing is absolutely useless and only puts lives at risk.

 

Smacks of unhealthy obsession. This is one aspect of the past that should be left alone. They can't help who they're related to.

 

Why? Do you think people will try to take vengeance? On those who are in no way responsible for Hitler's actions? That would be pretty high on the fucked-up-o-meter.

My concern is that white supremacist groups might try to get ahold of these people. But not to kill them...

 

These people have done nothing wrong and should be left alone, you can't help where you get your genes from. If anyone does anything to persecute these people they're no better than Adolf Hitler.

 

Am I the only one who first thought this was from The Onion?

 

Who cares if they're related to Hitler? If you want to get nuts, and theological, we're all related to Cain who killed his brother and slept with his mom.

So what?

 

I myself would feel very ashamed if I was related to Hitler, I admit.

 

So they're related to Hitler. So what? Why should anyone care?

 

There's a lot of bad people in the world and everybody is related to somebody. Should this be the start of a trend? Do we need to track down all the relatives of Jeffrey Dahmer, or Jim Jones, or OJ Simpson? Seems like a waste of resources to me.

 

I'm the Lindbergh baby.

That's pretty close to being a Nazi.

Joe, not dead

 

Is anyone else thinking of that Andy Richter Controls the Universe episode where he though the sandwich guy was Hitler?

 

Go back far enough in the family tree and we're all related. We all come from one common mother...one "eve"...and the bitch was black.
