Don't you have a clean shaven head?

You struggled to keep your hair and lost. :mein kampf:

does that fact that I have a shaven head have any relevance? Other than negative stereotypes:dabs:

Swastika + clean shaven head + white person = -stereotype

(the swastika is what really does it)

In that case, black person + any item of value = thief = stereotype?:dabs:

I take it you chose not to read my sentence where I mentioned the irony?

I figured you'd do that.

I take it you chose not to read my sentence about the swastika?

I don't know what's ironic about a swastika in your sig.

Yes I did read it, it just didn't make any valid point.

The irony of the swatsika that was within a picture in my signature was that it was the local council's crest with the main part of the badge replaced by a swastika implying that the council here are fascists.

Nothing to do with me being white and having a shaved head:dabs:

EDIT: the picture in question (except the original was bigger and more clear)

Ok that explains it.:huh:

Your analogy sucked, btw. I would have to say "white person + clean shaven head = -stereotype" for it to be equal.

Maybe I could talk about your military instead...well maybe not.

edit: If I saw that picture, then you told me you have a clean shaven head, living in Engerland (or thereabouts), I would have thought you a Skinhead.

I didn't say you were a Skinhead which I said it equaled a negative stereotype.

that was deliberately done to get your back up:schnauz:

and I don't have a military:snooty:

:P

We have swastika's around our house. Swastika in hinduism is the symbol for a god of ours. :lookaroun
