New generation of Royals proving that they don't think like the rest of us.

[Shannow]

Audie Junkie, I think that if it was Genghis Khan, Henry VIII, or just about any historical figure, there would be no outcry.

However, Idi Amin, Saddam Hussein, and numerous others are not people that a potential King should be wearing, even in jest.

Screw Auschwitz. A bunch of WW 2 British vets should get dressed up in their old uniforms and take this bozo on a tour of Normandy:

Good point

GW and TJ and all their flunkies owned slaves. Would it be not PC to impersonate them? Christopher Columbus, Truman, Napoleon, Crazy Ivan, OBL, Ceasar, Pope Leo XI, Vlad the Impaler, Castro...plenty of historical figures have deaths attributed to them. What about our beloved Henry Ford, Walt Disney or Charles Lindberg? They were total Nazi sympathizers. Another irony is the fact all the Royals in Europe are decended from the same family, except Harry...his dad was a red-haired Naval officer. Maybe they are all Nazis?

The latest saga of the Saxe-Coburg dynasty makes a strong argument for a republic. Suppose they could continue as a tourist attraction with some health warnings: "DO NOT PROVOKE: innate totalitarian tendencies of this breed not yet eliminated"

They made $US 100 Billion last year from tourism, the majority from Americans. Royalty won't be going anywhere anytime soon. Harry's just being a kid IMO. Silly I agree but not the end of the world. Most here know my father flew 'Lancs' in WW II and my mother was buried by a 'doodlebug' in London so I'm being pretty easy on him I guess.

Lets face it he's still a kid, he did'nt ask to be who he is, so like any pouty teenager he's being a Royal pain.

So we are saying GW= Adolph Hitler

Unfortunately that's probably being taught today in failed Government Schools.
