Oh it was a theme park alright, a park of agony, dispair, and genocide.
Htiler's Nazi Holocausters defeated the Jew-ers football team in World Football War II. amirite?
[QUOTE=Ickylevel;18220167]ONE in 20 British schoolkids thinks war-mongering dictator Adolf Hitler was a German football coach, a shock survey has revealed.
The same number thought the Holocaust was a celebration at the end of the war.
One in six youngsters believed the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp was a theme park - and one in 12 thought the Blitz was a European clean-up operation following World War II.
The embarrassing findings are contained in a poll for the veterans' charity Erskine, which asked 2,000 kids aged nine to 11 about the two world wars.
Twenty-five per cent said they did not think about soldiers who died then, and 40 per cent had no idea when Remembrance Day is.
Erskine chief executive Major Jim Panton said: "Some answers to this poll have shocked us and show we have a part to play, not just in caring for veterans but in educating society.
Bla bla bla ...

I'm offended that Europe hasn't been educating their children well enough. Auschwitz as a Theme Park? [i]Jews go on the ferris wheel and don't come back.[/i]
You gotta be fucking kidding me.
Kid not, we be you.
Glad to see our black hole of stupidity is dragging something down with us.
Nothing.

2,000 kids =/= Britain's entire population of schoolchildren

It's called random sampling.
They require nutrients
[QUOTE=Pigeon87;18233652]They require nutrients[/QUOTE]
I thought they would get all their required nutrients, after all, this is Britain, not the United States.
This is britian where people eat crap.
they require not pot.

Yeah, I know, but I think all these "surveys" are a bunch of bullshit.
"75% of the American public don't know who George Washington is!
[I]P.S. We asked 20 people in some ghetto.[/I]"

Not a good Null Hypothesis right there, if it was a random sampling of at least 2,000 people, then it is actually quite accurate.
[QUOTE=Flon22;18220520]Thing is, its not taught in schools until we are about 15-16.
So if the parents haven't told them then why would they know?[/QUOTE]
I actually learned the basics about Adolf Hitler and his reign before I even started school. I watched a lot of TV when I was little, stumbling upon war movies and documentaries, etc.

True. But I still think that 2,000 is hardly a definitive number.
Not to mention this is The Sun we're talking about.
I love how everytime any European member gets a whiff that somebody in their country or countries may not be absolutely perfect they make up bullshit excuses as of why and insult The United States.
You guys are hilarious.

Don't worry, I'm Jewish.
1 in 20 kids are retarded anyways, no surprise that 1 in 20 don't know who Hitler was.
And 10 year olds tend to not know things about basic history, let alone fine details of a war. When I was 10 I thought the cold war was an actual war we fought in Russia. Big whoop.
[QUOTE=Pepsi-cola;18221151]What's the point teaching them about hitler and the nazis, all its gonna do is cause ignorance and hate for a country that has changed.[/QUOTE]
Tell your government to stop acting like cunts, trying to ignore the fact that their country was occupied by the most dangerous force throughout history, and fucking accept it rather than trying to censor history itself.
Oh boy, let's all go to Auschwitz and ride the gas chamber!
The Sun has to be making this up, even kids aren't this ignorant.
I don't think american kids at the age of 9-11 know better.
They were probably just fucking around for fun.

ohai
Ahh, the Sun, once again showing us how Britain is being eroded etc etc.
America beat Germany in soccer; Hitler then killed himself.
so hitler isn't a football coach
[QUOTE=Ickylevel;18220249]In america it's not only the kids...[/QUOTE]
how do you know? they only interviewed the kids
get over yourselves people, there are dumb and ignorant people all over the world, just shut up about it jesus christ
Hitler was a coach though, he almost took over a huge football stadium, called Europe, and his players were called nazis, and beat the team called Jews. But then he lost the super bowl, and shot himself
