Third comment on the site, hi all! Great blog.

So hey, at least these nazi bastards call themselves socialists. Given I’m an American conservative fascist hater/socialist watcher, I always hate how people dont equate Nazi fascism with socialism, when they totally go together like peanut butter, banana, and honey. Mmmmmmmm….fascism, I mean peanut butter.

Not sure if anyone read the whole article, but Heschel’s daughter is extremely opposed to this. She does not, in any way, believe that her father would have wanted his name to be used in such a cynical way.

LB,

Notice I qualified my statement with “some enterprising lawyer.” The state’s actions here were not ethical, and unethical actions are often illegal. You and I might not be able to pinpoint a breach in the law, but my instincts tell me a good lawyer who was set on it could.

I live in Springfield, the majority of the people in the NSA are assholes. They did however, protest our Pride this year, and we had record numbers show up, just to see the nazis.

Well, from what I heard on the wires, Rabbi Heschel’s daughter is none too pleased with this, pretty much calling it a stupid gimmick.

Yes, renaming the highway is childish, but oh so sweet.

What sort of equal treatment? They are not being legally mistreated – there is no violation of the Equal Protection clause. The other implied “equal treatment” might under “due process” but since they are not involved in a court case, that is irrelevant, as well.

It might not be fair, or nice to them – but that doesn’t make it illegal in anyway.

Oh, and there’s no endorsement of religion involved here, so they wouldn’t have a first amendment case either.

OK, granted this is pretty funny. Still, it’s also a mild form of harassment. What about when the Pro-life camp wants to adopt a highway — will they rename that stretch Dr. Kevorkian Way? This will only underscore their savage point that Jews control the government. Why would we give that to them? I’d say the officials behind this had good intentions, and I as a Jew I really appreciate that. But some enterprising lawyer could make a case that this group is not receiving equal treatment.
