Dangerous

Yesterday,there was a demonstration in the city. The NPD, a nationalist party, sent out her nazi-demonstrats to walk around everywhere and make some of their messages public. The police had the very unmerciful duty to protect them,since it was a legal demonstration and the nazis,who were only a few hundreds,had to face a counter movement of thousands of people from all political backgrounds. They made blockades and tried to interrupt the nazis in moving on on their route. There were some violent happenings as far as the newspapers said today.

I wasn't there and i don't want to have anything to do with this,but after reading an article today that had nothing to do with what happened yesterday,i thought that,maybe,i should have taken part in the counter-demonstration too. Thanks to Tom for showing this article on his blog. Here it is: http://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/story?id=1231684&page=1

The first thing i thought was,this has to be a joke. And if it is a joke,then i'm glad,but i fear it's not a joke. It's really sad that we live in such a world and that it is allowed that things like that happen. That young people get poisoned by this thing called 'propaganda'. It has a negative meaning but the 'white nationalists',as they are called in the article,use it as if it's something good. Well, 'good' stands for many things.
I have to say one thing though: These people think they know what they are talking about,but they have no idea. They think they are good nazis,but even at this,they suck. Because they don't have the slightest idea of what happened in the 30s and 40s of the last century. If someone knows all this,has seen the cruel pictures,like smoke from dead bodies coming out of industry chimneys,and then says he still agrees with the nazi-ideals,then he is a monster but at least he is an informed monster. But the white nationalists,they don't even know what they are doing. I mean,it's easy to come up with racist views but still know nothing at all.

And what i hate about this is that they always include germany in everything. They praise the german leaders who spread these messages and who brought so much terror over the world. But as i said,they have no idea about anything. All they do is weaken our reputation once more,because there are still people who believe that germany is a national socialistic country, or that the germans are evil to the bone. Isn't it strange that our country in fact is one of the most peace-loving? That you can't come up with a nazi demonstration without having much more anti-nazis than nazis? Is that all coincidence...or did history teach 'us' something maybe?

I really don't know what goes on in the minds of those people. Perhaps they got something wrong,forgot who the good and who the bad ones are. The only thing that seems clear to me is that they are very primitive. The easiest way out of problems is to blame a minority. A minority in the country of course. Coz the 'aryan race' surely isn't that big any more nowadays.

What came to my attention recently is that we have to face certain sorts of extremism nowadays. Politically but also religiously. I mean,when i hear someone say "i'm proud to be christian" then i frown a little,coz it sounds amazingly similar to "i'm proud to be white". I just don't know...is it necessary to stress it that much? The war between the religions isn't that obvious yet,but this war,that isn't actually religious but rather due to social reasons, gets called a religious war. I get the feeling that things go out of control a little.

It's just like a gas explosion in the dark. You can't see anything,but you smell something. You wonder what it is,and you refuse to believe you are in danger. You look for a match to turn on the light. And as soon as the fire starts to burn...boom.
