Resisting Against Control
The group went on to say “If the government has control over our children today, they control our country’s future. We The People must be vigilant and protect children from an overreaching government.”
Well That’s a Relief
The group later made it clear on their Facebook page that they do not condone the actions of Hitler, “We condemn Adolf Hitler’s actions and his dark place in human history.”
A Much-Needed Apology
The group was also forced to apologise for using the quote and posted on their Facebook page “We should not have quoted him in our newsletter and express our deepest apology.”

Condemning the “Hate Group”
