I don't mean to freak anyone out, but while watching Imagine in Cornice, I noticed that Eddie has a swastika on the back of his shirt! Has anyone else noticed this? It is during blood. You can most clearly see it when it slows down in the middle.

    That symbol has been around thousands of years, and used positively in many cultures.

    http://www.associatedcontent.com/articl ... tml?cat=37

    "Before the symbols meaning was changed, the swastika was used to represent "life, sun, power, strength, and good luck". Many cultures consider the emblem to be sacred part of their lives and faith. How did this positive symbol, become an emblem of hate that is recognized around the world? These types of crosses have been found on "artifacts" found in "Sanskrit" and "the ancient city of Troy" (American-Israeli, 2007). Surprisingly, even old Jewish temples have been found with a swastika symbols on it."

    Yeah I knew that was the case, I was just still surprised to see it since it is still considered to be so controversial. Thanks though.

    Before you all get carried away, that shirt is a Plasmatics shirt. On the back is a swastika with a red circle and a slash through it. It says Say No to Nazis or something like that.

    You just can't see the red circle and slash, that's all.

    No statement behind it. Just a punk rock shirt

    seriously though?, it does not take much to piss people off about this kind of stuff, trust me i'm half german, there's no sense of humor when it come to nazis. I've tried on occasion and learned not to. I do know the nazis' stole this symbol ofcourse.

    oh good, you would think eddie would be smart enough to know better.
  • FlaggFlagg Posts: 5,856
    Yeah and actually I was off a little. It is a red X over it that you can't see. And it says Stamp Out Gestapo Tactics.

    You can buy this shirt online.

    who cares, he obviously doesn't have a problem with Jews, and probably hasn't read Mien Kempf! If a rumor gets started that he's a Nazi, I swear on my life I'll.....well, I don't know.....something harsh though!

    oh my god!!! did you notice that I'm my profile pic I'm throwing the goat from the stage?!?!?! I'm probably into Satan and shit!!!! you fuck!
    Hey, it's RicoTokyo....Can't figure out how to log into my old account (I was robbed and had to buy a new laptop), so I'm using my daughters account (she's six months old, she wont mind...)It's nice to be back!

    yea, my good friend Jamie (actually just died last week) had that tattoo, and he was into punk....like real gutter punk....that was prolly the influence.

    Good to know, thanks. Was just curious if anyone knew what it was. I didn't think Ed would actually wear a swastika.

    no problem here, just don't want to see you step in something you didn't mean to, really had no doubt personally.

    glad you got it cleared up. didn't mean to sound so gnarly earlier. I just hate how rumors get started and it struck a nerve with me b/c of my buddy passing. So this is me taking my man-pill and saying sorry for being so harsh.....cheers!

    i think tim robbins gave him that shirt...thought ed mentioned that at one of the shows, perhaps irving plaza where both robbins and serandon were in attendance...

    relax folks... just relax
    it's largely due to eddie that i liked to jump off of things as a child...

    Hey no worries man, I didn't want to start a rumor, I was just curious if anyone else had noticed, sorry it got a little carried away. Take care of yourself, sorry to hear about your buddy.
