In all of German history you say that's the only impressive thing? That's like saying the genocide of natives in America is the one impressive thing it's done.

Yes,but most German games are freemium

Sure they can show they are firmly against Nazism. But they're really beating the dead horse here. He should have been convicted long ago and not now.

I agree fully. Germany has put the distance of Pluto to the Sun between their country and Nazism. It's getting redundant at this point. "Have we mentioned we aren't Nazis today?"

Also, from what I read of this guy he's fully admitted his involvement all along and never tried to hide it in any way. He's spent his whole life in guilt trying to redeem himself and it's only now they decided to judge him.

Exactly. It's like... Their trying to distract us from the fact that Nazism is still present in parts of Europe like Austria.

Hitler was born in Austria... (I almost wrote Australia there... oops.)
Also according to Ross Kemp something similar in Ukraine...
My grandpa lived to 94... and he was a bastard (who probably should have gone to jail). But I can tell you, when it came time for him to meet god, he paid for his deeds alright... (I didn't kill him, but you could see the fear in his eyes and everything)

I think it's odd to blame this guy for something Germany did, I agree with you guys, he's a scapegoat.

I often don't blame individual Germans, because they had to do what they were told, or they themselves would be shot, they were forced against their will, essentially. It was Germany at a whole that was at fault, the government and it's propaganda. A lot of people in Berlin didn't even realise a war was going on until we turned up at their door.

Did they not see the soldiers parading and Hitler giving speeches about war? Did they not notice bombs dropping from the sky?

*face palm*

More lives ruined by this holohoax bullshit

The dude is 94 years old. 4 years in prison is like a death sentence for him. If they knew he was a nazi then and didnt convict him then they shouldn't be convicting him now.

+1

Publicity stunt. He's in his 90s, he is not going to be around much longer. It's not like he was in charge of the camp or pushed the button. He was just a gate keeper doing what he ahd to do in order to survive.

Sorry, but i cant understand it! why he gets to the jail?
He killed tons of people thats alright, but to be serious, This was in the year 1944. Now we have the year 2015 ... Thats 71 years later!!!

Punishment is immoral. The idea that when someone does something you dont like they should be made to suffer is the devious and counterproductive cornerstone of societal repression and control.

Just 4 years? my grandparents were in awchwiz and i think if there is any place to give punishment its by the israeli court and of course hang him the thing that suprise me is how they live for so long???
Yes people would say '' why puting a 94 year old in jail '' i think if he will die without amy punishment its like we are a part of the crime also by leting this monster live

Holohoax bullshit? your life is a bullshit (Ryan)

Even though I dont feel sorry for Oskar Gröning, the whole trial is a farce. After WW2, the west allies encouraged westgermany to set former militairy officials, that have been part of gestapo and extermination commandos as well, in charge again, to fight the UdSSR. After more then 20 years of the reunion of germany and the defeat of communistic russia they sentence a 94 year old man to prison, to prove their willingness to fight genocid and dictatures. this is fucking hilarious.

Professor Dead Piggy- go kill yourself you sh*these. That guy helped murder millupions, and you say punishment is immoral. I wonder what you would say if I raped your wife/mother/sister/daughter.

This is why communism is the best

And kill them Tyrion and gaz them to death and burn them and use thier body parts for lots of simple stuff

Your also an idiot. Josepgph Stalin killed millions if Jews too.

Stalin was an equal opportunity murderer. He killed thousands of almost any group you could list.
