I think its funny that Germany can try and eradicate and entire group of people from the planet a few decades ago, but can't stand to see some low def zombies get shot now. Makes no sense to me. What a bunch of idiots.

Actually the reason why it is how it is now is because of our past. Censorship is nearly none existing in nearly every western country, but (thanks to uncle sam) it is part of our basic law. It is very constricted but it is there so the books and writings of the "little austrian with the little beard" can be banned. Thats never changed unitl know, but I have hopes that it will in the future thanks to the EU.

 

 


The writings of Hitler aren't banned based on protection of minors but based on copyright laws. I cite wikipedia (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mein_Kampf#Rechtslage_heute): 'Da Hitler bis zu seinem Tod mit Wohnsitz am Prinzregentenplatz 16 in München gemeldet war, wurde sein Vermögen, das von den Alliierten beschlagnahmt worden war, nach Kriegsende vom Freistaat Bayern eingezogen. Zu diesen Vermögenswerten zählen nach Ansicht des Freistaats Bayern auch die Nutzungsrechte an Mein Kampf. Sie enden am 31. Dezember 2015 (70 Jahre nach Hitlers Tod, gemäß Urheberrechtsgesetz). Der Bayerische Staat geht gegen unkommentierte oder vollständige Nachdrucke mit allen rechtlichen Mitteln vor.' That means, the state Bayern claims the copyright of his writings and forbids reprints.
