Freedom of speech is one thing, but certain things just should not be done. The Nazi's commited a terrible attrocity, basically murdering an entire culture and cannot be forgot lest it be repeated. I can't see any decent human being wanting to repeat what the Nazi's put the world through for five years and even though it MAY have been a joke, it was a tasteless and cruel one that they should have known better.
I do beleive that history is still taught in school and having attended and learned that subject they should have known better than to salute in such a manner.
I for one, cannot believe that two young adults could be that insensitive all the while hoisting the banner of freedom of speech. If the Nazi's had their way, there would be no freedom of speech or freedom of any manner, so why would we wish to resurrect that. The fact that they are saluting in that manner is the double standard. But that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.
