    My new NAZI Tshirt... WTF!?

    I just picked up some sweet OBEY factory seconds tshirts at the swap meet.

    I'm not really a t-shirt guy, but I love Shepard Fairey and these are really soft.

    So I like one of the shirts so much, I take a self portait in it.
    It's got a cool "Day of the Dead" skull on it and says "defiant since 89."

    I posted it online and someone said, "I'd be careful wearing that shirt..."

    wikipidia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Division_Totenkopf

    "Wal-Mart was selling a t-shirt featuring the Nazi SS Death's Head Battalion skull."
    http://www.debbieschlussel.com/archi...rt_neo-na.html

    Fuuuuuuck.
    I'd already fallen in love with the shirt. Can I assign new meaning to it? Or is it's history too strong? Or...did the Obey Company select it AFTER the Target controversy as a intentional statement?

        SS Division Totenkopf ("Death's Head") is also known as 3. SS-Panzergrenadier-Division Totenkopf and 3. SS-Panzer-Division Totenkopf. It was one of the 38 divisions fielded by the Waffen-SS during World War II. Prior to achieving division status, the formation was known as Kampfgruppe Eicke. The division's military record is infamous due to numerous war crimes and the fact that most of the initial enlisted men were SS-Totenkopfverbände (SS concentration camp guards).

        The Totenkopf division was numbered with the "Germanic" divisions of the Waffen-SS. These included also the SS-Panzergrenadier-Division Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler, SS-Panzergrenadier-Division Das Reich, and SS-Panzergrenadier-Division Wiking.

                  I'm 100% jewish by heritage and a non-practicing atheist by definition, but as twisted as it is, if you can't laugh at your own holocaust, then what good has it done for you? hehe

                  but seriously, if you want to know if you should wear it, think about what someone who knows what that graphic is would think (group of holocaust survivors) of you.

                                  I'm not gonna wear it anymore.

                                  If it reminded one person of the holocaust I would be horrified.

                                    when i was just a smart assed, punk kid (as opposed to the smart assed punk adult i am now) - i had a shirt that looked like a bands shirt that said "Adolf Hitlers European Tour" with a pic of hitler, map of Europe and listed all the cities and dates etc. like any other shirt for a music group.

                                    anyway.... it was very insensitive... but i didn't really consider that i would be offending anyone

                                    until one day, in a mall in Anchorage Alaska an old man walked up to me with tears in his eyes and asked me how i would feel if i saw my family executed right in front of me as he did. i was speechless. he didn't say anything else.. he just stood there looking straight into my eyes, as i did his. for the first time, it really occured to me how all of the attention getting stupidity could affect and even deeply hurt others. in just a few seconds, he was able to teach me a very valuable life lesson about consideration and respect. i got it. he could see that i got it. i went home and i threw it away.

                                            Yeah, I'd have to say it's as bad as wearing your GFY shirt to a day care center...

                                                    Awesome Logo and Awesome Shirt, Wear it if you like it, don't care what anyone thinks of you, what about the people who think you are a jobless punk because you have pink hair, do you care what they think, of course you don't, so why care all of a sudden what people think of you, I would think that you would not be a person to give a shit what other people think of the way you dress or look.

                                                    Well maybe I am wrong.

                                                      sorry tassy but this is complete BS.

                                                      why should we stop wearing clothing which meets our style only because it is connected (in a very far way) to what happend over 50 years ago.


                                                      this tshirt is not offensive in ANY way.

                                                        This is a very important factor here, It is not a nazi symbol at all, it is just as harmless as the Iron Cross that appears on a huge percent of clothing worn today by men and women alike such as west coast choppers et all.

                                                        If you like the shirt , wear it with pride and do not let any special interest groups or individuals push you to do otherwise.
