what the fuck Parents Anger After Scout
Camp Jews-Nazis 'Game'
The Irish Examiner

COPENHAGEN, Denmark - Parents of more than 100 Danish scouts were outraged over a game of tag at a scout camp in which children acted as Jews wearing yellow Stars of David and tried to escape from adults pretending to be Nazis.

The group of about 160 scouts, aged 11-14, included a dozen teenagers from the Danish-speaking minority in northern Germany. The school yard was turned into a concentration camp with swastikas on the windows.

"I was shocked," Johanna Christiansen, a German woman, told the Ekstra Bladet newspaper today.

"It's wrong to expose children to this," said Christiansen, whose two daughters took part.

The local branch of the Danish Christian FDF scout organisation planned the game last weekend at the Kongeaadal school, 160 miles south-west of Copenhagen.

Jes Imer of the local FDF chapter told the tabloid BT that they �may have crossed the line this time with a night game where Nazis chase Jews.�

The school yard included a sign with the German words 'Arbeit macht frei', or 'Work will set you free', the infamous inscription over the entrance to the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland.

"I don't know whether I should apologise," Imer told BT adding: "I didn�t want the game to hurt anyone."

None of those involved could be reached for further comment.

Sounds fake, but not really that outrageous. It's not real acts of Nazism carried out against Jewish neighbourhoods, so it's not really THAT horrible. - Thu, 23 Jan 2003 11:12pm
