Isn't that a contradiction in terms? Most gangs seem to have a large amount of rules, regulations and initiations, which seems to go against the Anrachist spirit I'd call a group of anarchists a rabble of anarchists, rather than a gang of anarchists

They have just released a new video if you like to watch kids beat the hell out of each other. This one seems to contain more attacks on innocent people who aren't part of any gang.

People are only shocked because these are rich white kids who go to a good school, and whose parents are very well off and live in the good section of town.

I'll have to see if I can find that other video. But if a newsite doesn't put it up on their website, I have no way of linking to it.

Suffering from ads?

here's a link to the new story about the new video tape. It shows some of the video from the tape- though most of it is just the newscasters talking. It doesn't show the clip of the teenagers attacking an innocent person. And people were screaming- what the **** are you doing!

just click on the video link

http://www.klas-tv.com/Global/story...01&nav=168XHx2p

They said they taped all of their attacks so they could sell the videos similar to the bumfight videos sold this past year that were shot in Las Vegas.

There is no Swastica on that cross in Dissident's pictures, is there?

By the way, I think the ban on the Swastica in the western world is both ignorant and over-ambitious. I think we should reclaim the Swastica. It is not a nazi symbol, they just kidnapped it.

Didn't swastica mean "eternal life" or something?

Finnish air force used similar swastica as those Gongers, only blue. Was it.. von Rosen's cross?

The photo is of a WW1 issue cross, but I assume the actual cross medal (WW1 or WW2 issue) is not what the kids are wearing (they're fairly expensive and not that common as collectors items, for either war), but just the graphic on shirts, or the pattern in modern jewelry, etc.

Outside of a school setting, it can't be regulated in the US, but in a high school or lower, it can be regulated on campus and in school events.

When I lived in Finland, one of my buddies in University wore a blue Swastica medal on his tuxedo at the annual prom. He was of noble breed, and the blue Swastica had been the symbol of his family for hundreds of years. No way he was going to remove it just because some ignorant leftists called him a nazi.

I had never heard of the Von Rosen Cross before so I did a quick check. It was indeed blue and a swastica. The funny part is that I shared an apartment with Carl Von Rosen and his wife. Its funny but in all our discussions (and my ragging him) about the Von Rosen - Goering connection the existance of a blue swastica never came up.
