John Galliano Declares: I Love Hitler!
On Friday, John Galliano was suspended as the chief designer by House of Dior, as a couple in Paris complained that this fashion guru assaulted them with racial and religions slurs.
Specifically, patrons at a bar called La Perle told authorities that Galliano hurled anti-Semitic insults in their direction, a charge the designer's lawyer "formally denies," adding: "legal action will be taken against those making such accusations."
This allegation may now be harder to deny, however.
In a newly-released cell phone video, posted by Great Britain's The Sun, Galliano slurs his words and tells a woman: "I love Hitler. People like you would be dead. Your mothers, your forefathers, would all be f---ing gassed."
When asked where he's from, Galliano replies: "Your asshole."
Under French law, the stating of anti-Semitic remarks qualifies as "incitement to racial prejudice." It's a criminal offense that can carry a sentence of up to six months in prison.

It doesn't matter if he says what he says in a free country or not. It doesn't matter where he's from. It doesn't matter that he's drunk - drunk people usually don't say things that they don't mean (notice the double negative). The thing that matters is that he works for a company that has many clients around the world from many different religions. To flat out state comments like that about any people of any religion is very unprofessional, and if it were me, I'd fire his ass. Good luck finding work now you drunk mf!!!

I am Russian and to be clear I would state that my grandfather fought against Hitler on the battlefield for 4 years non-stop, his brother died in that war and many of our family members were either wounded or killed just like everybody elses'. Being in France I have already met many French who have expressed anti-soviet (which doesn't exist any more) or anti-communist views vis-a-vis me and the country just because I love my country and don't let them humiliate or diminish what serves great. In fact I find many of them so profoundly illiterate! But the point is that thus, many of these French have told me that they equal Hitler to Stalin, or communism to fascism and that if they had to chose they would have chosen Hitler and somebody like Stalin and others be dead (in other words, that it could be my fathers and forefathers that might have been dead along with Stalin)!!! But another point is that when I asked them to watch out what they were saying, I have been told by the same French
