Reporters complained to Defense Secretary that he should not compare Nazis to terrorists, because they are not equivalent, to which he responded, “No, they are identical. They’re both mean and scary.”

Still sporting several tattoos and a newly shaved scalp, he defended his remarks from the day before to Veterans Legion group. He has added a teardrop tattoo under one eye, which he says is for the sadness he feels that people hate him for his freedoms.

When a questioner complained that Nazism means something different, and Nazism was an ideology rather than a form of intimidation, Rumsfeld forcefully responded “Both have bad people running them, both are murder-based, and you can’t show signs of weakness. And with both, we’d much rather fight them in Europe than over here.”
