many of you would claim this topic is not GNR related, so is his PICTURE. if this topic gets locked so should the PICTURES that are not GNR related. we all here to share info about our favorite band and not looking at pictures of mass murderers. i get the irony in your message underneath it but the display of hitlers picture is just over the top.
i'm not trying to preach or enforce any opinion but i hope some of you should understand how some people might have a problem with that picture.
not trying to take a dig(force down an opinion) at anybody so all you folks out there cool out. if you dont get it you're probably assholes.
p.s. this thread was not ment to harass anybody (Christos too). my attention was that people should be a bit more thin-skinned. Peace

I didn?t know every avatar was supposed to be Guns related. I have a guy with his index finger sticking out of this freaking eye socket.
Besides, Axl wearing a t-shirt with the picture of a mass murderer on it seems to be A-OK for most Guns fans, I don?t see how an Adolf pic is so different. At least he died half a century ago, unlike Charlie...

In One In A Million Axl said Immigrants and Faggots, and Niggers... does that offend you?
Can I have an avatar that has the N word in it, maybe a slave with that written over him?
Would that be less offensive to you? Go to another Guns board if you don't like the mods here.

guns probably killed more people than hitler
axl had a swastika on his all acces pass in donnington... did anyone care about that?
i`ve no problem with making fun of adolf hitler. ignoring the past is way worse......
nobody of us had anything to do with the crimes the nazis committed, please don?t forget that... and as i stated in the thread where this was first mentioned: christos is no eighty years old german, but a young man, living in a country that was invaded by the nazis 65 years ago

I don't know which is worse. Your grammar or his avatar.
Ok - it's your grammar.

First of all, people should stop crying. My argument backing my comment up is as follows:
Look at it this way:
Christos avatar is just as ridiculous as people accusing the moderaters for beeing 'nazi's'.
Just leave it at that. I see the humor of it, some people unfortunately can't. Context people, context.

i think its funny.
but hitler was ALSO a good man. he built roads and shit like that.
and he doesnt have to be evil to that. just do what he believes in.
its not worse than the priest trying to convert the gays...... (they dont kill people though)
i dunno.... its freaking 50years ago! get over it!

i don't see how it can be offensive at all.
it's a picture of hitlers face, it's not a picture degrading anyone is it, it's not humiliating anyone. it's not going to do anyone any harm.
if you want to protest/bitch/whine about something make it something worthwhile, not a 70x70pixel image.
political correctness is going way to far..........
