An American tourist suffered minor injuries in the German city of Dresden on Saturday morning after he was punched and beaten for repeatedly giving Nazi salutes. German police are investigating the man for violating the country’s post-1945 laws that ban the use of Nazi symbols.Authorities are also looking for the assailant, who apparently was passing by a cafe in the eastern Neustadt district of Dresden when he witnessed the American man’s gestures and attacked him. The incident took place at 8:15 a.m. local time, police said.

As I said on FB earlier: "I like to imagine the local police chief (or whatever) taking the officers responsible for investigating the assault - finding the attacker - aside and saying, basically, "don't wear yourselves out.""

I keep flashing on this thing that happened to a younger friend of mine a few years ago. He was dating this college student who was a little younger than him (iirc, she was 19 or 20), and who was mixed race (Polish-Hispanic). She had to read Mein Kampf for a class. She got really into it, and starting having arguments with him and others about how--Holocaust aside--Hitler was really progressive.
Needless to say, he dumped her pretty quickly after that. Also pretty sure she's a red-hatter now.
