@BigBaldBeardGuy you and I are pretty close to the same age. Both of us has seen this world with a lot less claims of racism than we are seeing now. I’m sure you realize, as I do, that in today’s political circles, this topic is being blown out of proportion by radical leftists and the media. Thereby inciting confrontations over incidents that don’t deserve the aggression which ensues. That being said I agree with you that anything to do with the Nazi regime was horrendous but memorabilia and history from that era are extremely important to our newer generations so no one ever allows anything that horrific to go on again.
@iceman440 wasn’t condoning the Nazi’s actions. He showed a piece of history which is a reminder for all of us what happened. I live in the south and the leftists have been demanding that statues of confederate officers be taken down. These historical objects have been there for years and there wasn’t a problem with them until these leftist groups began raising the issues about them. These items are history. History is not happening any more but let’s teach our past, right or wrong, to our future. The kids.....
Also I think that your kid busting that guys face was a lot better action than any kind of censorship of history.
I have the belief that ALL races should be allowed to be proud of who they are and what they have accomplished. Not the ones that I am told to proud of. I’m Caucasian, Indian, German, French, Irish and no telling what else but I consider myself to be a white man and I am proud of the accomplishments my race has had through the years. The blacks are proud of what MLK accomplished as well as many other achievements. All races have things that they are proud of and should be. But no one should be allowed to decide, for others, who should be proud of what. To stifle this pride is censorship and censorship occurs in countries that have oppressive Govts. Oppressive govts. are govts such as Russia under Stalin, Germany under Hitler, Italy under Mussolini and the list goes on. By continuing this argument of censorship you are heralding, you are only associating yourself with the same activities you're trying to stop.
