German Iron Cross banned Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

from our local schools. Mainly just one high school.

It seems the rich white kids have formed a gang called 311 boyz. And they use the cross as their gang symbol. It is associate with racist and hate behaviour. mainly because the gang goes around beating up random black kids sometimes. but they randomly beat everyone up.

I find it disturbing that black gangs have been killing each other for years, but now that a white gang starts doing violent things the media finally pays attention. ****ing media is racist I tell ya.

This gang really isn't a gang. Sure they fight each other. But it looks like it may be more along the lines of fight club.

here's a picture. It looks more like the one on the left. Many people have this tattoo in my city, and lots of these on vehicles and t-shirts around town.



If you want to see the news clip of the kids beating the **** out of each other go to the below link. They don't show the full 30 minute video though. It's kind of like fight club, but real.
you have to forward through the first 30 seconds of the dumb news reporter blathering.

well I can't link to javascript it seems. Just click the below link and click on the video to see the kids beat the hell out of each other. Including chicks beating the hell out of each other!

Our local fox station had more video of the 30 minute video. But they don't have video clips on their website. They showed more of the fighting

That cross is still used by the German Army. There is nothing "nazi" about it.

"It looks more like the one on the left."

So they wear it the right way round at least.

"It is associate with racist and hate behaviour."

Well someone should read up on the origins of the iron cross.

Well, during the Nazi regime, many Eisene Kreuze's were given on political basis, the "best" kind of was given to.. Göring, I think. With leaves, blueberries and eagle droppings, or whatever they put in it.

It somewhat undermined the value of the one's given for actual valor or achievements in combat.

I suspect the context is more along the lines of 3 times the 11th letter.

If a gang chooses the letter "A" as a symbol, should the letter "A" be banned from schools ?

Maybe they'd feel stupid running round with legion d'honneurs...

Iron Cross is Nazi? Great, that's the St John Ambulance movement written off at one go.

What's with this random attacks? Can't they decide on a target or something?

Here's my solution to the problem - take all the thugs, put them in a large arena with a variety of weapons, and sell the TV rights to Sky.

Very traditional. Kept the streets of the Roman Empire peaceful.

EDIT: NAH! Fly in the ointment is the abolition of slavery. Oh well, just wait till they're 18 and eligible to be sodomised at the local state penitentiary.

Dissident, no, the media is not racist, it is leftist and has a theme: White racism is to be condemned. Any activity, no matter how outrageous, from blacks or minorities in general, is to be ignored. It does not fit the theme.

AFAIk it is not Nazi, the symbol is used today in our army as it was used before the Nazi time (WWI).

The Iron Cross as medal was introduced 1813, but the Nazis had their own version since september 1939.

Those gang idiots are even too stupid to get real nazi stuff

That was my point BeBro - that homemade effort that Diss pictured has the outline of a Maltese Cross, which was certainly used a hospitaller emblen (knights of St John, Malta against the Turks etc).

I had little idea of the age of the Iron Cross, but I was aware that it was pre-Nazi.

I don't know for you in the US, but I can tell you things are changing here. Leftists and antiracists now begin to understand the anti-white racism exists, is strong and is wrong. No longer is it utterly ignored.

Spiffor, I am not convinced that black hatred of whites in the United States is "racism." It seems to me to be hatred for centuries of abuse and discrimination.

I am unfamiliar with what is going on in Europe, so I cannot comment.

Still, though, it is hatred and ought to be opposed. At hate crime is a hate crime even if its roots are not racism per se.

This is a more civilized age, Cruddy. It is no longer acceptable to put men in a small space together and encourage them to destroy each other physically for our amusement. Nowadays it's only okay to put them on small islands so they can destroy each other psychologically and emotionally for our amusement. And they audition to do it for us now, anyway. Get with the times, man.
