Last weekend, some 1,700 Germans turned out for a PEGIDA rally in Cologne to protest the wave of sexual assaults that unfolded in the city on New Year’s Eve in the town center.

PEGIDA nearly faded into obscurity early last year when then-leader Lutz Bachmann posted a picture of himself dressed as Hitler on Facebook with the caption “He’s Back”, but thanks to the 1.1 million Mid-East asylum seekers that poured across Germany’s borders in 2015, the anti-immigrant group has seen something of a resurgence over the past six or so months.

While the group claims to be looking out for the interests of the German people, some draw disturbing parallels between PEGIDA and a dangerous far-right ideology linked to extreme nationalism.

Unsurprisingly, movements like PEGIDA aren’t confined to Germany. In Finland the streets are now patrolled by the The “Soldiers of Odin,” a kind of vigilante justice brigade with political overtones and the trappings of a biker gang. The men don black bomber jackets adorned with the Finnish flag and a symbol of a Viking and say they are interested in helping police keep native Finns safe. Here's one of the group's members:

Oh, no wait. That's Odin himself. Our apologies. Here are some group members:

There are still places where you can buy small side arms and rifles in Europe?

Oh, you'd LIKE Finland!

Note that Finland's five million people own four million personal firearms. Just wait till Congressman [now New York senator] Schumer finds out about that! - the late Colonel Jeff Cooper, in his Gunsite Gargantuan Gossip

Karen O did a fine job of it as well

I always wished these guys had done a cover version of it. Karen O's version likely comes pretty close to what might have been.

If they rediscover the secrets of the "Berserkers" the immigrants will be trying to swim the ocean to get out of the North.

You mean like the Fountains of Tyr and Blutrausch? Too late! They remember.

Then consider this guy, from 1940. Or this one.

Frankly I might feel better pointing those the other way on the rack

Next phase: We bring back Arkan's Tigers!

I remember an account of German Generals discussing an invasion of Switzerland with Hitler.

There was also an anecdote from before the First World War in which a German Feldmarschal observed that if it came to a shooting war between Germany and Switzerland, the Germans would overrun the Swiss with a force three times the Swiss national population.

Oh, good! came the unexpected reply...Then we can all fire just three shots, and then go home.

I see your point however slightly disagree. But what you say has merit. Good point!

[archy]

Nobody screws around with the Swiss. Not even Hitler or Mussolini during the Second World War, and certainly not the Islamic invaders.

They tried an anti-gun disarmament election in Switzerland a couple of years back. Epic fail.

Weapons control for gangsters? Disarming initiative NO!

But Switzerland is having their problems with the invasion as well. Just not to as large a degree. And they have real Leadership in Switzerland.
