Singer Tony Bennett brought up Nazi Germany at a press conference in Washington where he demanded gun control.
TONY BENNETT: It's the kind of turn that happened to the great country of Germany, when Nazis came over and created tragic things, and they had to be told off. And if we continue this kind of violence and accept it in our country, the rest of the world's going to really take care of us, in a very bad way.

Wasn’t he once hooked on heroin?
White is black and up is down. Tony’s reeducation is complete.
America would then look more like Nazi Germany.
I think you got it backwards you crazy old man.
The media will regurgitate leftist swill from any famous moron if it suits their agenda. It doesn’t even need to be coherent, although what leftist idea is. Likewise, they conveniently ignore conservative celebrities.
Go back to singing that is all your brain can handle.
I guess he doesn’t realize the Nazis (National Socialists - just like our modern Democratic party) implemented full gun control before they put all the artists, homosexuals, jews, and others they didn’t like on trains to concentration camps where they were mercilessly killed. I have lost all respect for Tony Bennett. Old fool.
The ignorance of this man’s statement is stunning.
especially since he was alive at the time
“...Nazi’s came over and created tragic things so they had to be told off...”? World History from 1932-1945 according to Tony.
Indeed. They regurgitate Tony Bennett, who hasn't had a hit song since "For Once in My Life" rocketed up the Billboard Hot 100 all the way up to #91 in the fall of 1967, as they do Harry Belafonte, who hasn't had one since Island in the Sun faded from the charts in the early summer of 1957.
All this, coming from the same dementia-addled old fool who believes America should not have retaliated for the 9/11 attacks.
Just STFU and sing, Tony.... it’s the only remaining function your brain still has.
This cannot be a real story and headline. It is satire?
...which, according to him, were caused by us.
OLD is correct he will be 87 come summer time...

wow...I’m getting old also...double post!!! oh well, hope my kids tell me when to ‘shut the H E ! ! UP’
Tony’s unrealized symmetrical point is interesting, we are within one human lifetime when the most educated nation on Earth rounded up “undesirable” humans and put them in gas chambers! If that is not evidence for the need of a 30 shot clip then nothing is.
Tony Bennett is a bald artist with genital herpes, I hope he lives out his days keeping his opinions to himself, but continues to sing paisano saloon songs.
