"Deine Gewalt ist nur ein stummer Schrei nach Liebe
deine Springerstiefel sehnen sich nach Zärtlichkeit
ARSCHLOCH!"

Die Ärzte

For you anglophones out there these song lyrics about a young neonazi
translate as something like:

"Your violence is only a mute cry for love
your combat boots long for tenderness
ASSHOLE!"

This is a to-the-point parody of the usual psychological attempts to explain
neonazi violence, which on the preceding weekend, as Otto mentioned, once
again showed itself in its most ugly form in good old Doitschland. Usually
around here these attempts serve to exculpate the violence by trying to
understand the perpetrators' motives. 

This said, I do not mean to criticise your post, kwp. It could indeed be
useful to understand the psychological patterns out of which this specific
kind of contemporary German racism grows, although I suspect that in the
final analysis the new patterns are not much different from the old ones.
Under the reigning political circumstances, though, the first response has
to be "Asshole!"
