    Precisely he was using it for his own ends, in some ways I agree with them (a lot more blacks are locked up than other races and that needs investigating) that doesn't mean the flag is only linked to that cause.

    Sounds racist to say he's not a skinhead because he's black. A white guy in that photo WOULD be your stereotypical skinhead thug.

    Maybe we change your attitude rather than the flag.

    When I see this flag I think of Scottish Dawn and its twisted blood & soil ideology

    It makes me think of these brave young men who are willing to go out and protect our once great and precious union from the Muslamic Infidel.
