Look at these pictures:

Do you think those are photos of an SS meeting from the '30s? You're wrong. Those are volunteers from the newly born association "Guardia Nazionale Italiana" (Italian National Guard), whose purpose is to improve national security by going around in groups and "controlling" the streets.

I am disgusted. But you know what's worse? (Yes, it gets worse.) People actually agree with them. I read an email in a local newspaper this morning that said "Well, there were groups like that during the Fascism and everyone was happy, weren't they?"

Yes, really fucking happy. I'm worried, very worried.

Wow. Look at 'em. A bunch of proper Rambo's, ain't they? Just what you need - a bunch of guys with feathers in their caps and little badges running around like kids in a playground.

Sadly this is nothing new. It's Nationalism gone crazy. When are people going to realise there really isn't such a thing as a national identity? There are countries and borders, but they are put there by man. In reality, they don't exist. There's no line painted on the ground. Blink and you miss the sign erected to tell you that you are now somewhere "different". My passport can argue my nationality all it wants, but I'm still just a human (even if I'm a human with tags).

Pic 7 amuses me. A fine example of man is he :P

They are quite ridiculous indeed, but we'd better stop them now, before it's too late. I don't want a rerun of the sad show that went on between 1922 and 1945.

Ah, the circle will complete itself once more... And then it will just go round again :(
