You ignorant people you don’t understand a damn thing and what anything stands for if you ruin his career, I’ll do everything in my power to ruin your group and expose you as the Ignorant people you are.
Either side with Nazis like #IMPOTUS or side with Democracy
I’ll take the USA and Trump over crazy demorats!
Claiming to be a patriotic organization and going after this officer is insane. The Nazi SS was defeated long ago, Marine Scout Snipers have been utilizing this symbol for a very long time. As a Marine I am offended that anyone would take action against this police officer’s tattoo at all, let alone after being informed of the context.
It’s come down to this. It’s America or trump.
Marine scout snipers had been using the double Sig rune (ϟϟ, “SS”) in its “Armanen” form to symbolize their function since at least the 1980s. The same stylized double rune was the symbol of the SS, the Nazi organization that was instrumental in conducting the Holocaust. Strong media criticism of this practice ensued. The Commandant of the Marine Corps gave orders to stop it, issued an apology, and ordered an investigation into the prevalence of this practice.[2]
A Marine official was quoted as saying that their leadership believed that the Marines did not understand the logo’s significance.[2] The Military Religious Freedom Foundation, which had helped circulate an image of snipers posing with a blue “SS” flag, questioned this assumption, writing that the flag was sold by a website dedicated to German World War II and Nazi memorabilia.
From 2012….. nice try though!

No one is scared of you snowflake.
Murray, Phil, Mark. If you don’t like it, leave America.
If the Marines and their leadership don’t know about the historical significance of the SS symbol, it really shows their lack of political, social, and military history of Germany despite them going to school for so many years and the plethora of books, films, TV shows, documentaries, magazines available to them for the last 75 years.
