"GODWIN'S LAW" is the well known theorem that as any internet discussion progresses, the probability that someone will invoke Adolf Hitler or the Nazis approaches unity. (As a corollary, it is often presumed that whoever demonstrates Godwin's Law automatically loses the debate.) Yesterday, in honour of the anniversary of Hitler's death, the eponymous Mike Godwin wrote a short reflection on his runaway brainchild.
Meanwhile, a profoundly crazy man named Tony Zirkle has been dropping jaws around the blogosphere for his actions on Hitler's birthday. Mr Zirkle, who is seeking the Indiana Republican Party's nomination for a congressional run, appeared at a National Socialist group's celebration and—flanked by swastika banners, and with an enormous portrait of Hitler hanging overhead—warned the celebrants about the Jewish-run "porn dragon" and its threat to the white race. You may gather the flavour of Mr Zirkle's...idosyncratic...view s from this Fox interview:
The personal-injury lawyer says he’s running for Congress to combat "the genocide of the white race" that pornography is causing — an "unholy pornocaust" against white Christian women.
"We now have a small army of male black porn stars that are sifting through five, ten, fifteen thousand women," he said. "One man can now genocide the wombs of thousands of women," infecting them with sexually transmitted diseases that leave them barren.
He calls it "Porn mule womb slaughter . . . the most effective weapon of mass destruction."
In an interview, Zirkle told FOXNews.com he doesn't think he is too far out of the Republican mainstream. He believes the solution to STDs and out-of-wedlock births is to separate blacks and whites into segregated states, but he says that's fully in the tradition of the party.
Needless to say, the state party has a different view of what constitutes the Republican mainstream. (Mr Zirkle lost a 2006 primary race with 30 percent of the vote, but presumably had not been photographed at any local Hitler parties.) I must confess, though, there is something almost transfixing about the free-form insanity of this man's world view, as presented on his rambling website. Among other things, he proposes "a 'Derrenger's [sic] for Dildos' policy to put guns in American women's hands instead of divorce aids." On the whole, it reads like the diary of a man driven around the bend when his high school sweetheart dumped him for Jamal Liebowitz.
I hope he wins, if only to see the spectacle on Capitol Hill.
(no, I really don't. I think he needs to be locked up)

First time I've seen genocide as a verb. Interesting. What a nutbar. (Other than because of the noun-verb mixup thing .... )
