I hate to break it to you, but centuries before it was used by hitler, the swastika (in both directions) has been used as a representation of buddism [among others]

I'm sure she was the only person in Vegas with cocaine in her purse. What a waste of police resources.

And wtf is with the swastikas?

Thanks for sharing!

Indeed. It was used as far back as 3,000 years ago.

Yeah, it meant, among other things, "good luck".

no matter how old and no matter what it means - 99% of the world population associates hitler and the nazis with the swastika. :2 cents:

Wonder if her booking will be on that Jail show

Maybe he's trying to take it "back," a la Randall in Clerks 2 with "Porch Monkeys." :winkwink:

whoa! that's hot... how can I get my pages parked at godaddy?

:1orglaugh it is

As a motorcycle rider I can tell you that it is not unusual at all to get a hit as you are splitting lanes. The weed these days is quite pungent.

And NV is not the place to get busted for coke. This will not go as easy as the CA conviction.

She probably has a parole or probation violation to deal with now. That will really suck for her.

Everyone knows the swastika pre-dates Hitler and had been used by various cultures prior to becoming THE SINGLE monumental icon of the most horrifying and bloody campaign of mass-murder ever perpetrated in human history.

Regardless of the origins of the symbol it's sole use today is to represent Hitler and the Third Reich and it's the single lasting image in everyones mind that instanly recalls that terrible period in our history.

As a human bring I recoil at the thought that my species is capable of such monstrosities and Im sure if I were Jewish I would take the use of the swastika in a fun, cavalier manner deeply personally, and I may even stop doing business with individuals that show such insensitivity.

it's old symbol but we know for what was used :(

WHY would you say that?

Bump for those that do bumps

Who drives in Vegas nowadays.

I know that swastika is forbidden in your country even in movies etc, but you Germans are really too obsessed on various prohibitions. For example, did you know that River Raid was forbidden there for a few years for "violence"?

2MaDalton: Almost everything is allowed in Vegas: gambling, drugs, prostitution, but every moron will as you to show an id in order to get a glass of beer. You must be over 21 to buy it, even if you look at 40.

As about CA, so you can openly promote "medical" weed and whores there (seen many ads in "LA Weekly") I believe the USA laws were written by a bunch of lunatics.

You are wrong. :2 cents:

I was wondering why she looks like shit some times.

not judging her for having an addiction problem, but that shit is hard on u

There are lots of arguments in your post :1orglaugh Where exactly I'm wrong?

Drugs and prostitution are NOT legal in Las Vegas. Gambling is legal.

the swastika is not forbidden in movies, what makes you think that? otherwise there would be no documentaries, no movies like "The Downfall" or "Valkyrie" and so on.

it is indeed forbidden to use it for political purposes or to display it in public on clothes or flags - and this is totally fine. what would the world think when it would be allowed again to run around with swastika flags in Germany?

and yeah, some movies, games, music etc. were only made available for people older than 18 - in many cases laughable and quite often later revoked. but really "forbidden" are very very few of those.

I've brought a bunch of whore ads from Vegas as souvenirs. I mean these the Asian guys pushing into your hands when you are walking though the night strip. Should I make a photo of them for you? The same thing with drugs. Color guys pushing them right there w/o any fear.

what Baddog says...

but i don't get what's your obsession with pointing fingers at others? recently read any news about Russia that are not controlled by the government?

like
- critical journalists get shot and no one cares to find out by whom?
- russian nationalist and facists hunt black or asian people and beat them to death?
- oligarchs bend the laws and use government property for their personal gains?
- environmental protesters get attacked by militia and instead of protecting them, the police beats them up some more and arrests them?
- gay protesters get beaten up and once again the police arrests the victims and not those who attacked them?

i could go on for a while but when you look closely, you will see that no country is perfect. but if you want to point fingers you have many reasons to start in your own neighbourhood

Can't say anything about documentaries but swastikas are surely forbidden in the computer games. E.g. the original "Wolfenstein" series etc. Why they are getting censored?

Whatever your incorrect perceptions may be does not change the FACTS.

That doesn't make it legal. :2 cents:

because in this case it is not used for educational or artistic reasons :2 cents:

and "Castle Wolfenstein" is surely not art nor educational

I never recall seeing any Asian guys handing out anything on the strip. Many South and Central Americans, never an Asian.

Obviously legal.

i always though they're all mexicans... and pretty annoying too

Nothing personal, but I would not expect a European to know the difference between a Mexican and an Ecuadorian by sight.

I'm not exactly the target market for hooker flyers, but I've only noticed young Hispanic guys and maybe some white guys passing things out on the strip.

you are incorrect about this. some people today still view it as something spiritual and not related to anything negative. unfortunately not everyone is educated enough to see beyond some perverted use of it. That is what it might be to you, but you can't cast your views on to what everyone thinks.

Has nothing to do with what I was saying above.

Wrong. There are lots of media groups and parties that criticize the Russian government. No one is being shoot of them. Kasparov, Limonov etc... or even me for example :)

As about these who was shoot (e.g. Politkovskaya), so she was criticizing the government of Chechnya. These guys understand sharia law only so personally I wouldn't mess with them.

Like in ANY other country. Not less and not more. At least there are MUCH less racial-related murders in Russia comparing to the USA.

The oligarchs bend the laws and use government property for their personal gains in ANY country. In Italy it's called Mafia, in Russia it's corruption, in the USA it's political lobby etc. The world is not ideal. Everywhere...

Partially true. The problem is that these protesters don't want to protest in places specified by the Moscow city hall. They want to protest anywhere. Unfortunately, in Moscow this is prohibited. I agree that's not good, but on the other hand it's not really critical. I can live with that - believe me :)

That's not true as well. According the polls, about 90% of Moscow citizens are against of the gay parades. I'm against of them as well. Homosexuality is not a crime. There are many of gay clubs where these people can do everything they want, but most of people don't want to see their parades (perhaps because most men are still straight there in Russia as opposed to the EU :winkwink:) The ban on parades was made to prevent the attacks on gays. And you are wrong about police. If you browse youtube, you'll see that they just pulling off the gays from furious crowd. Otherwise they could be teared to pieces. I'm living here and I know what I'm talking about.

Please do. There is no prob with that. I'm always open for a discussion :)

Ha, this is exactly what I wanted to tell you! :)

So when this happens before police eyes is not legal? Even if the police does nothing to prevent it? You want to tell me what the US police is not have to uphold the law (prosecute the illegal activity) anymore?

Wow! I'm really confused now! :helpme

Perhaps. Personally I don't really recognize them as much. Does it change anything?

I'm the one of these stupid Europeans in this case.

Not really. You are still incorrect.


At least MaDalton knows the difference between Hispanic and Asian. Does that make you dumber than the average European or is he just above average?
