People deny it all the time, but in actuality, I think they're just being attention whores. I'll admit that some things might've been exaggerated, downplayed, or outright lies, but I seriously doubt that it never happened.

It goes without saying that under Hitler, countless people, not just Jews, but people with mental retardation and deformities, were put to death. But I have to ask all holocaust deniers this one question.

"What's more reasonable, several hundreds of thousands of Jews collaborating to "Disappear" and give the Nazi's a bad name, or them being slaughtered by extremists who were led by a charismatic man who could sway the masses?"

The only thing I doubt is the staggering number of Jews dying, I'm pretty certain the number is a good bit lower than several million. Other than that, I believe the entire thing happened.

I think a good punishment for those kinds of people would be to put them on a boat, blindfolded, and send them east. Have someone say "Ohhhh here it comes! The edge of the world!" and rock the boat a lot yelling "Whooaaaa down we go!!"

Seriously now, I think it's just one of those things where they prove it with science as a joke.

I also believe that these people are attention freaks.  Gee, look at the amount of attention they get when they say such, granted it can be pretty nasty attention like someone smacking them upside the head, but it is attention as well.  This is one disbelief that garners far more reaction than others like the Flat earth society or even athiests or agnostics.  I am not sure why one earlier comment doubts the number of people killed during the holocaust both Jews and Gentiles or mentally impaired and otherwise dysfunctional.  It is my understanding the Nazis were superb record keepers, almost anal about records, keeping numbers killed at the various concentrations camps.  How about all those not killed in concentrations camps that there may not be a good record.  There was an organization of killers prior to the concentrations camps but they stopped since it got so expensive with the "one bullet-one dead jew" philosophy.  the gas chambers saved alot of money and bullets for dear old Hitler
