Keep squeezing your bung hole so tightly and you’ll cause a hernia. You’re arguing a distinction without a difference.

The iron cross did not originate with the Nazis. The Nazis simply continued the use of the iron cross.

Hitler, Goering and Rommel ALL earned their (first) iron cross in WWI before the Nazi party existed.

Posting all the pictures in the world will not alter these facts.

Matt is technically correct that the Iron Cross was used in Germany for 100 years before the Nazi era. In fact, Germany issues a version of the Iron Cross today. That said, this animal in Santa Fe seemed to be inspired by the Nazi association with the Iron Cross. He wore a symbol associated with the WWII era Japanese Empire, too.

Contacted my niece and her two kids are fine, but one of their friends was shot.

Prayers up for the families y’all.

We were pretty much a death penalty nation during the turn of the century, wild west, and even during two world wars, the murder rate was lower during those times as well, we also had plenty of the populace owning firearms as well.

Shame on you - “Q” told you this massacre was going to happen and neither of you warned anybody.

Oops, sorry. Previous reply was about another post.

The quote is from “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence”.

I meant it to signify that the Iron Cross, not matter what it was associated with prior to Hitler’s rise, has irrevocably become a symbol of Nazi Germany.

Just as the Confederate Battle Flag has become a symbol of the institution of slavery. The narrative overwhelms the facts.

You’re saying “Deranged teens who can’t handle guns properly need to control themselves or Hogg will take our guns away”?

Explain how any of that makes sense.

People who can’t control themselves need to control themselves?

Really?

In my case, being the 2nd smallest guy in my high school class (and maybe the 2nd smallest male in the whole HS until I was a junior), I befriended the center on the basketball team, the starting power forward, the strongest, toughest guy on the football team, the co-captain of the wrestling team, and a couple other such fellows. A couple I helped with schoolwork.

That worked pretty well!

I hate to sound cold, but they took every kid they could find with aggression and violence, and threw them into war with an order to fight until they ran out of ammo and then make a kamikaze suicide run, in a war they lost pretty decisively.

It is possible mankind is only kept civilized by existing in groups who expel the unmanageable into the cold, and cull them from the population.

We have not had such a selective pressure for a long time, so we may be culturing violent mutants in ever increasing numbers, and allowing them to spread genes and multiply.

Thanks for reminding us of Fast and Furious (the ATF gun-running scandal).”
