[Al Jazeera] German police tossed in the clinkDrop the rod and step away witcher hands up! 35 neo-Nazis in Berlin as they gathered to commemorate the death of high-ranking Nazi official Rudolf Hess. Officers detained a total of 39 people on Saturday - four of them counterprotesters. More than 500 neo-Nazis had attempted to march to the site of the former prison in Berlin's western district of Spandau where Hess died on August 17, 1987, but were blocked by left-wing groups and local residents. Neo-Nazi protesters were frisked and funneled through tents where police checked them for weapons, forbidden flags and tattoos showing symbols banned in Germany, such as the Nazi swastika. A number of far-right protesters emerged from the tents with black tape covering their arms or legs. |

| #3 Nobody stopped by all those years he was in Spandau and now they rally for him, like WTF? Sort of like Pelosi talking trash about removing certain statues now, after she had so much opportunity when she was speaker. |
