Look what he' s carrying

I never know what to make of this sort of stuff. It is very popular to wear TR items in Japan almost as fashion. I guess it comes down to the message people want to portray and the mystic behind the TR. I can't see people putting on Congressional medals of Honour or Victoria crosses in this way. And, Governments exist that will stop them dishonouring the medals in this way. There is no TR Government to do so. And as the swaz is banned the wearing of swaz items becomes a means of raging against the machine... or something of the sort.

For the soldiers who earned and wore these with pride it must demeaning. To those who suffered because of the actions of some who wore these in the TR period it must also be so.

I have to ask "tr" what does it mean?

[HouweTrouwe]

"TR" - "Third Reich"

A lot of punk and heavy metal bands use or used to wear different kind of TR regalia and I guess most did to offend.....check out Axel Rose in the official paradise City video, he has a w-ss sleeve eagle tucked in his backstage pass.......


By the way i love metal and punk rock and slayer is a great band if you like the genre..... Angel of death is all about the subject....

Cheers
