What you really need is some professional psychiatric help. But Gawd save me, I agree with you, Nazi Scum.


Pointing something out does not mean I agree with it you moron!

Well that's true. Besides the fact that I wouldn't cross the street to **** on you if you were on fire. There's also the fact that you hide and run away. COPPER!!!!!




Lemme get this straight. You never showed up, never intended to show up, and I'm the guy who hid and ran away, eh?

Never cease to be amazed at how you sick, pathetic, dickless freaks rationalize your cowardice and complete lack of manhood.

I showed. You pussied out. Nothing is ever going to change the reality that you never have had and never will have the balls to spew your **** in person. You know what cowardly scum you are, but you have plenty of company in this ********.

COPPER is right.


And if you had shown up you would have known that the 'clock tower' was a ruse. But you still claim that you were waiting under it. If you had actually been there you would have known that it didn't exist but since you never showed, you were never there. But keep up your wild rants about your imaginary world.

To a large portion of the worlds population the word Templar has similar connotations to the word Nazi. War, conquest, world domination, wiping out entire cultures and civilizations. Now you wouldn't name your company Naziskis. Why would you want to alienate large segments of the public? Granted, there may not be many skiers in that demographic but there are still plenty of people who do ski who would never buy products with religious symbols on them.

If you never intended to associate the skis with any religious views, why is there a cross on every pair of skis? It seems you didn't really think this through. Maybe what you really need is some professional marketing help.[/quote]

Well there is a T on every ski, no cross unless you refer to the knight but that is his helmet.... boy oh boy I did just enlist the help of a professional marketing group. Great feedback from across the pond! eye opening for sure ... and also a great point about the back plate - for back-country we used modified G3 skins so we never had to worry about that but I will have to design it into the future pairs.

From the time Hitler joined the NSDAP, their platform included rejection of the Versailles treaty, a racist national government, and expulsion or extermination of many non-"Aryan" ethnic groups. It was the most right-wing of any viable party in German politics of the time. The real Social Democrats (a party has had that name since then except when they were banned by the Nazis) had nothing to do with them.

Those who connotate "Nazi Germany" with 2013 United States of America,
tended to be asleep during history class, and miss words like
Gleichschaltung and Ermächtigungsgesetz.

The Nazi murdered and imprisoned Social Democrats at places like
Dachau, besides other political opponents. If you are going to warp
the history of Nazi Germany, at least know a little of what you are
babbling about.


Speaking of words, who came up with the current word "homeland"?

The cluelessness of people who equate naziism with todays liberals just amazes
me.
If anything, today's conservatives are way closer.

A little history anyone?

The Nazis never practiced equal rule themselves.

The Nazis persecuted all their enemies. They hated the Communists and
other Socialists leaders because they competed for the same voting
base, the middle class, the working class, the Union workers.


There's no need to fear if Trunky is near.

That doesn't make it right-wing. Hitler was a Socialist. I read his
book.

There were several different Socialist parties. What part of,
"National Socialist German Workers Party," do you think is right-wing?

The party used that name to attract voters. There was nothing remotely socialist about them.

Do you think the Tea Party serves tea?

Bob Thompson is not a Nazi. Though I certainly could see him running the ovens. He's that kind of nutcase.

The sad part is that you really do see that happening in your fantasy world.
