Nazi Garden Gnome Controversy
Posted by: WTF is this? ()

An artist in Germany has caused controversy over his garden gnome sculptures giving the Nazi salute. The Nazi salute has been illegal in Germany since WWII. The artists claims it is being used as a mockery, not to be taken seriously. Prosecutors think otherwise......

I understand the artist is now in hiding and is using a gnome de guerre.

What about that Communist garden gnome currently bouncing around the country, but who momentarily makes appearances at his P.O. Box located around 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue?

That gnome is muslin, and he's refusing to show his long form birth certificate.

This gnome is doing a nazi salute.

Apples and oranges.
