The most disappointing thing about this story is how little committment these two had. It's all well and good to abandon hatred, of course. But once they found out that they are the Chosen they jumped right into Judaism with faster than you can say "mozel tov". Fairweather Nazis like this give lunatic extremists a bad name.

Yeah, they should have stuck by their guns and broken up after they found out the other had slept with a “filthy jew.”

Reminds me of Dave Chappelle's "Black White Supremecist" skit. Old blind black dude who's a white supremecist...eventually finds out he's black and divorces his wife b/c she's a "[N-word] lover."

I really hope some skin head beats the hell out of both of them. I don't care how bad of a person that makes me.
Aren't people who used to be part of such organization usually targeted the most by them for fatal violence instead of harrassment(which they usually reserve for the peoples they hate)?

All they would have to do is kill each other then they can be true to being a Neo-nazi and a jew.

*Shrugs* I’m not really up to speed on skin head policy.

Yeah, that's exactly what I was going for.

The ones I'm used to dealing with (Troy NY was all skinhead south of roughly Liberty St.) generally weren't that disciminating. They just wanted to get a lot of tattoos and beat people up -- white, black, Jewish, whatever -- and didn't care too much if the victims lived or died. The whole "neo nazi" thing was more of an attempt to say "Ooh, look at me, I'm a scary bad-ass."

Ironically, I just watched that last night.
If nothing else, at least that guy (can't remember character's name) was a man of principle.

Instead it comes across as "Look at me, I'm such a punk that I only feel tough when I have a bunch of guys backing me up."
Skinheads, and pretty much any other type of gang, disgust me.

Just goes to show how quickly the loyalty of men can be swayed. Pathetic excuses for life, who have some false sense of entitlement. It just means they were envious of Jews from the start, they didn't hate them.
The worth of these individuals have been demonstrated, and they show themselves to have little. This doesn't mean I agree with their life decisions before or after their discovery.

I think this is one of the best cosmic jokes I have heard recently.
Who says ( Insert higher powers name here) doesn't have a sense of humor.
In one fell stroke the cosmos turned haters into the hated.
I for one do not wish them any harm whatso ever and hope they will be happier now than they were before. when you spend that much time hateing anyone else it's just stupid, now they have turned their lives around and if all goes well can be used as an example of forgivness and the old adage "judge not lest yea be judged"

I don't think there was ever any danger of that happening ;P

Skinheads are not by default "in a gang" nor are they by default Neo-Nazi.
If you had an understanding of the counter-culture the scene and look was derived from black music from the 60's. As time went by and with the advent of punk rock skins created their own music – Oi! This moved away from the ska/rocksteady/rude boy sound and was harder - directed at working class youth. And while it was a little more in nationalistic vein (vs. mostly left leaning punk) it was still very anti-establishment and anti-authority.The gangs were just a bi-product of the scene, just like punk gangs of the time. The neo-nazi thing grew out of the 80's but hardly took over the scene -in fact there was a lot of in-fighting with various skinheads (yeah, many were gangs) and racist/anti-racist skins fought it out - with many apolitical skins getting caught in the crossfire at the gigs or just on the street for looking like a skin.
So not all skins are neo's, but many of them (just like punks) are knuckleheads - just like in any scene or counter culture. 90% of what you hear is hype and what can make the news aka D&D syndrome.
These clowns in this story are just that, clowns. They blow with whatever wind they think will move them along to some kind of personal fulfillment.
Racial identity and racism are just intellectual laziness (IMO), a tool for people who don’t want to be challenged and who don't want to think. It's much easier to generalize than to actually address any real social problems, just an extension of the mentality which creates stereotypes – it's safe and it provides answers. Racial identity politics just takes that thinking up to 11.
Doesn't really change much, I still hate Illinois Nazis
oh yeah - Oi!

The particular gentlemen I was referring to were classified as a gang by authorities, wore tattood lightning bolts on the hands and spiderwebs on the elbows, and had "88" marking all their stuff. So maybe I should have specied "Neo-Nazi-wannabe skinheads."

No, I wasn't referencing your situation Kirth - I have no doubt that you were dealing with straight up a Neo-Nazi/WAR skin and not a wannabie.
I was commenting more on Moorlucks Skinhead = Gang member post, and the generalization that all skins are in gangs or are all neos. That's all.

Lol Derek, don't get me started on the Mods, but yeah - they are a critical component in the formation of the skin counter-culture.
It's funny how everything got so Balkanized in the 80's. I never understood why so many Skins and Mods and Punks would fight each other when they had more in common than not.
Eh
Even the most hardcore skin didn't listen to Oi 24/7
Back to the topic on hand – these people are idiots.
"I'm not saying that I don't have regrets but it's not something that I walk around and lash myself over... I feel sorry for those that I beat up," Pawel said. "But I don't hold a grudge against myself."
Well I'm glad you don't hold a grudge against yourself, moron. The Jewish community should never have accepted these fools into the fold.
Reminds me of an excellent move "The Believer", a story where the main protagonist/antagonist is a neo-Nazi skin but also knows he's a Jew and leads a bizarre and conflicted double life.
At least in that movie the main character didn't move to a side out of convenience - he knew from the beginning who and what he was and was trying to deal with his self-hatred and lived as both a neo-nazi and Jew.
I can't recommend this one enough.

I lol'd.
Neo Nazi is just the Politics of your Local Government.
Jew is an out of date Cultural Reference.They are niether exclusive of one another nor extinct.
Started reading Mien Kampf - Adolf's an arse. He has encountered Multiculturalism in the Austro-hungarian Parliament - and finds it disturbing to him as a German in that there are not enough Germans in the Parliament to Govern all these other less capable groups.
So if we were looking for what makes a NAZI it is contempt for Multiculturalism (Anti-Commonwealth).
