The JCP thing was a joke, you really have to have a wild imagination to see Hitler in that teapot.

I'll be glad when this "teapot crisis" is over. Maybe Kim Kardashian can get a pimple on her butt or something...

I used to argue with a conspiracy friend of mine--a real nut, but kind of sweet, on a different forum. Every time he would bring up vaccination or chem trails or weird health crap, I'd bring up the coming Zombie apocalypse and ask him if he was ready. It was ever so much fun. Pissed him off no end.

in the state anymore. It was not nearly as widespread as the media led the public to believe--imagine that.

A common misconception is that Idaho is somehow a racist or Neo-Nazi state. Around 1980, a Neo-Nazi and white separatist brought a band of followers to Hayden Lake near Coeur d'Alene and began regularly making the local and national news with his racist provocations. Although the local residents vigorously disapproved and regularly held much bigger counter-demonstrations, the Neo-Nazi image has stuck. Idahoans breathed a collective sigh of relief in 2001 when the 20 acre compound owned by the "church" was handed over to a woman who had filed a lawsuit against them after being assaulted by their guards, and many of the racists left the state.

85. SLPC: "New ‘Aryan’ Compound in Idaho to be Sold Off in January"
Tue Jun 4, 2013, 07:40 PM
Jun 2013
The public foreclosure sale of property that was to be a new Aryan Nations and Ku Klux Klan compound in North Idaho is set for Jan. 14, court records show. The foreclosure will mean eviction for white supremacist Shaun P. Winkler, his wife and their small child, along with a small band of their racist associates who have been living on the site, unless they can come up with almost $70,000 by the scheduled sale date.

There was another scam sort of thing, too. Claiming to be an oasis for patriots or some such thing. A gated community of a kind. Anyway, SPLC said they doubted it'd ever happen. Looks like there are people trying to just cash in on the past and scam a few folks out of money.

I can't find a story now, but one of the major players who was gathering fees for reservations turned out to have a criminal background for similar scams.

Hitler has only got one ball,
Göring has two but very small,
Himmler is somewhat sim'lar,
But poor Goebbels has no balls at all.
