I'd rather starve than eat at this Nazi lover's restaurant. Not just the Jews, the Christians should stay away from the place too. After all, the first Christians were converted Jews.

Man...dont we have anything better to talk about than debate about the names of restaurants?? Are we that jobless?? But since I have decided to waste a few minutes on this topic...I might as well say my point. All you people who want to boycott businesses based on thier names such as this "Hitler's Cross"...think for just a moment, what are you gonna do when your extremely nice and helpful neighbor's last name is Hitler??
interesting thing...the Hitler's cross owner didnt choose the age old Hindu swastika symbol which but its mirror Nazi symbol!!
Insensitive

If the owner had chosen just the symbol Swastika, he can defend his actions, as Swastika is an ancient Hindu holy symbol which was appropriated by Hitler to serve his Aryan supremacy theory.
But having Hitler's name shows that he is insensitive to the plight suffered by the Jews in the holocaust. I cant seen how anyone can have their food sitting in a restaurant named after a person who systematically and brutally killed 6 million people. Just remember scenes from a movie like Schindler's list or Life is Beautiful or The Pianist, and you can then realise how grotesque and inhuman Hitler was!
I have a simple question to the owner: Can he dare put up the name General Dyer's cross? If he can answer that question, he will have an answer to the question of whether the name Hitler's Cross is justified or not!
