i like how this derail pretty much started with one dude incredulously asking how you'd know the guy in the mosh pit is a nazi as if they aren't actually literally showing up wearing swastika armbands at metal shows (pro tip: yeah no, they literally are, and/or swastika & ss lightning bolt tattoos etc)

my neighbor in texas was a nazi, and i knew it because he had the nazi eagle tattooed on the front of his throat, SS lightning bolts on one arm and swastikas on the other arm, and you could see 'em because he'd wear a wife-beater specifically to show off those tattoos so people could see that he was a nazi, because he was proud of himself for being a nazi

"oh but it's such a slippery slope because people on the internet call everybody a nazi for disagreeing with them" well in real life there are actual literal nazis who self-advertise as actual literal nazis, because they're actually, literally nazis

I saw a guy at a gas station just north of here with a huge HH 88 tattoo across his whole neck. "Here" is the San Francisco bay area.

The training institute at my workplace had two Nazis show up who work for the same construction company in Florida. One of them had 1/3 of his neck tattooed as the Confederate flag and both of them had multiple visible swastikas, Thor's Hammer, and in one case a very poor tattoo of marching brownshirts.

I looked them up and they're both members of American Front, arrested in 2012 after an undercover cop found them planning to start a race war by attacking people at an anti-racist protest. They were on a compound in St. Cloud and even had a white nationalist from the National Guard training them.

They just don't give a poo poo. Nazis tend to be very, very proud about being Nazis.

That was me, and I've never seen someone with those at a metal show, and it was unrelated to the derail really. Then again (again) I don't live in the US.

Don't get me wrong, there are nazis here too but I guess they are more low key than wearing nazi tattoos or arm bands at metal shows. They have their own admittedly Nazi bands and shows for that.

Don't really go into pits anymore, I got old and don't want to break my glasses, but it was pretty common for there to be some assholes there who had the wrong idea who'd get elbowed but never noticed them specifically being nazis.

my neighbor wasn't in a mosh pit, he was just in the neighborhood, existing, with his nazi tats hanging out because nazis exist in america and are proud of themselves for it, at least in Texas

haven't seen any openly "hi i'm a nazi look at my nazi swag" nazis in New York so far but I'm sure they're around too, tbh

Yeah, it looks like the guy tore a hole in his oil pan by driving over that metal thingy.

Luckily that thirty feet or so isn't enough time for the oil to fully drain and cause engine damage, provided he shut the car down as quickly as possible. It'll be an irritating repair, but replacing the oil pan and oil is a hell of a lot cheaper than scrapping the engine because a piston seized.

Like this guy for instance

As a German, I.....

quite like this video, especially from 0:43

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk8g86S8CRY&t=43s


I'm...sorry, I don't want to derail, just "inform" you of an important difference:

Self-defense laws in Germany are different, because you are not expecting every-loving-one to have a deadly weapon with easy-mode on them. I never was afraid of being shot in Germany in my life.

First gun experience:
Kid in other 5th grade played with dads weapons.The story was it was a gun with blanks (Schreckschusspistole) and he put it on his ear, pretending to shoot himself. And then pressure to the ear something killed him. Maybe that was just the story for us kids. But he was definitely dead.

Second gun experience:
2 years ago or something 5 towns over the owner of a Sportwettenbüro, Sports gambling thing, was shot on the street in the night.

That's it. Otherwise I never heard from anyone I know (or someone that knows someone that knows someone) about a gun related death. Or even a stabbing. Making deadly weapons illegal for everyone to "just carry around" and restrict access to the most deadly ones has quite a nice effect, like, for feeling safe.

Come to Frankfurt, I'll show you around. At 3am in the red light district. We can start trouble with dudes on the street or even some Türstehers if you want.
We then will be asked to leave or may catch a beating. But we won't get shot. Maybe i can start a tourism thing here under that premise........

The cow should have the guy's job and the guy gets turned into burgers.

I mean, I’ve also never personally heard of anyone I know being shot or stabbed or doing any shooting or stabbing. That doesn’t mean I’m going to assume that nobody ever gets shot or stabbed in a fight or home invasion.

Like, knives exist? Even when they’re illegal to carry concealed?

Tourism thing for 3am in the red light district? I imagine there is tourism things there already for that, but hell go for it.

A dirtbag judge resigned after public attention was brought to how much of a dirtbag he is.

quote:

In August 2016, “Mother A,” an African-American resident of Jackson, was traveling through Pearl while looking for employment. She was a passenger in a friend’s car, and her child rode with them in a car seat. When the car was stopped for a minor traffic violation, it was discovered that both adults had outstanding warrants for routine misdemeanor offenses. Upon arresting the women, the officer contacted DHS claiming that the child was “abandoned” as a result of the women being detained. The baby’s grandmother arrived on the scene within minutes, yet the officer still insisted that the child be taken before Judge [John] Shirley at the Pearl Youth Court. Less than half an hour later, Judge Shirley awarded custody to the baby’s grandmother. An order was later entered prohibiting “Mother A” from having any contact with her baby until court fees were paid in full.

Uh, I think I forgot to clarify that my gun experiences were that! Like, that's it. I found a more toy-like gun with blanks in my grandfathers drawers after he died, but otherwise I don't even know anyone owning a (real) gun. Or came in contact with one during my whole life.
And yes knives exist and recently some dude in a skyscraper broke a window and threw like 5 knives a second into a crowd and I think over 50 people died. But that's freedom I get behind, because I need to cut onions.
