What the hell???

A Brazilian judge has banned a group from parading in the Rio carnival with a float depicting the victims of the Holocaust and a Hitler figure......The judge said the samba group could still parade but must remove mannequins meant to represent dead bodies. (BBC)

I'm speechless.

Nothing says "carnival" like "Holocaust".

Carnival has gotten way too political...whatever happened to just dancing around nude?
