Unlike a lot of watermelon environmentalists, they’re honest about it. They want to adopt a highway, but the state won’t let them:
Representatives of the National Socialist movement in Missouri did not immediately return calls seeking comment about the legislation Sunday. But a statement on the movement’s Web site calls the renaming “a lame attempt to insult National Socialist pro-environment/green policies.”
Birds of a feather…
One thing people conveniently forget is how closely the National Socialist movement in Germany was tied to the back-to-nature movement. Nazis were all about cleaning up the environment. It’s what they thought polluted it that was the rub.
A few years ago here in NC, the KKK was denied a section of highway. The DOT thought, and rightly so probably, that people would drive through and litter intentionally to monkey with the Klansmen.
I probably would have.
What happened to that section of highway “Adopted by Kramer”? You know, where they had the traffic jam because the lane markers were painted out so there would be just one “wide lane”?
