How about flaming commies?

Now we're talking'!

The burning kind I mean. Not pink tutus. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

That works as long as the commies are flaming.

I don't believe there is anything anti-semitic about the use of the SS symbol by the scout snipers.  That, however, does not make it right.  They need to be educated and hopefully then, they will be able to use better judgment.

You actually make a very good point here. People tend to see any symbol that is similar to one used by the Nazis or their military and say "Anti-Semitic," although that might not be the intent of the people using the symbol. Be it KISS or the Scout Snipers, the use of the sig runes doesn't have to equate to being against Jews (any more than playing the Axis powers in a wargame).

But yes, education is probably the best course of action.

Actually, the SS form of the Sigil (or Sowilo as it was known in the Elder Futhark) is a racist and Nationalist symbol.
The oldest form of the original rune actually looks like a 'W' turned onto it's left side.The set of two diagonal bars touching
with little or no crossbar was the invention of 19th century Antisemitic mystics who were advocating for German nationalism
and racial purity. Changing the name of the rune from 'Sigil' (sun) to 'Sig' (triumph/victory) was also their idea.
One of the most prominent of them was Guido Von List who re-imagined the Younger Futhark (or Futhork) into what he called the
'Armanen Futharkh' and he included a number of 19th century occult meanings to the various runes. His ideas were picked up by
a Nazi mystic who mentored Himmler himself.

Glad to hear it.  Use better judgment from now on in your choice of signature photos to avoid any misunderstandings.
