Hitler greeting from dog gets tail

The man who taught the dog of his girlfriend the Hitler salute was condemned by the Scottish judge.

Mark Meechan's video was viewed more than a million times. 'My girlfriend always cares about how cute her dog is,' says Meechan at the beginning of the video. 'I thought: let's change him to the least cute thing ever, a Nazi. '

In the courtroom Meechan defended his video. 'The Holocaust is something terrible, which should never have happened, but we can still joke about it better, because in my opinion, atrocities become less painful when you laugh about it,' he said according to the Jewish Chronicle.
