Default RE: Politically Correct Scale Documenttion

well call me racist if you will, but it wont stop me from putting a Swastika on
a German aircraft! how stupid is that? I am German! My grand parents are from Germany,
but because I put a Swastika on my 109, has NOTHING to do with me being a racist,
nor condoning hatred!?!?!?! makes no sense. it is History, it happened.

and the P47 in the German scheme, very kewl indead. if you knew about that pilot, and
how that plane came to being painted that way, you would also know that that plane
never took an American life in those colors. also, if that is so bad, what about all
those German, or Japanese planes, that the Allies captured, and painted with stars and
bars! would that not offend you then, to see a BF109 painted in an American captured
scheme?

this PC stuff is getting a little outta hand. I understand that you are African American
Mugenkidd, but quit throwing out the race card here. I hope that someday you dont
see my German planes up close, as I guess we would never be able to meet because
you would turn away? I dont look at the "color" barrier here. some are white, black,
tan whatever, that makes no difference to me. but this is about being Politically correct
for scale documentation here, not racism lines in the sand.

if everyone held off and hated the Swastika, and the Japanese rising sun, and never
modeled them, there would be alot of GREAT aircraft that would never get modeled.
but because we choose to model these planes, and these where our enemy during the
war and took down American and allied lives, they are so bad? What about all the
German, and Japanese pilots that lost theres? you thing they are still feeling good about
that, maybe we should quit doing American planes now as well, with German kill signs
and Japaneses kills as well, they may be offended
