    i think its safe - a maltese cross i think its called.

    i put this in the same category as the confederate flag- it can be considered racist by the beholder, but in and of itself, it is not.

    true the cross was seen in nazi emblemage, and as a result is adopted by skinheads and racists.. but its also seen as a symbol of power and strength- its adopted by bikers and is seen on every chopper occ made. i think it predates nazis and traces back to medieval germania

    dont sweat this one- i think the cross is fine.

    Brian Bruney, relief pitcher on the Yankees, has an iron cross tatoo on his non-pitching arm.

    Yeah it looks nice on that girl, and suits the rest of her outfit.

    Here in NZ they are typically seen on "West Coast Choppers" hoodies, worn by white trash pretty much...

    The Iron Cross is still symbol of German Military. I know this has been said already, but this may be my only chance to post a pic of a MBT on this site. I have no problem with the iron cross in general, but definitely would with swastika. Some body here said it was possible to do a tasteful nazi themed shoot, i respectfully disagree. Anything portraying the nazis as anyhting but the evil they were only allows people to forget the horrors that occurred in Europe in war two.


    The pictures are a Leopard 2A6 MBT with 120mm smooth barrel gun. The helicopter is a Sikorsky CH-53GS Super Stallion
