Sadly no, these guys aren't going away anytime soon. Bad enough that Germany (the country) has to live under the cloud of their 1940's past that is a source of shame for many, but add that the youth still carries the stench of hate and find new ways to flout it despite bans against anything relating to aforementioned past.
Since "Heil Hitler" is enough to get someone thrown in jail and the swastika is permanently banned from everything the Neo's are finding new ways to proclaim their loyalty to a political party long dead.

Ironically their groups are springing up in Russia of all places. But the crack down is getting there.

What I find funny is the photo related to the article where two "supporters" are hiding their faces from the camera. Way to show the pride of your support there folks!
Racial hatred was something I grew up with... but thankfully I grew OUT of. I've been burned, betrayed, hurt, robbed and just screwed over by almost every race that is out there, likewise I've been helped, loved, praised, honored, respected and aided by almost every race that is out there... and what I came away with out of all those experience was the lesson that the color of the skin is of NO indication of the content of their character.
But these people feel that the white race is threatened to extinction. :idunno: well gee maybe it's OUR turn, I mean we (whites) have tried over the centuries to wipe out every other race on the planet so... maybe it's our turn in the barrel. But the doctrine of hate simply won't go away will it?
I can understand that a survivor of 9/11 and their families for hating Arabs or hating at least Arab terrorists. I can understand if not support it. I hated blacks for a long time because they were the only ones who teased me mercilessly in school, but like I said I grew out of it. At the time at my grade and jr. high school there were only two races whites and blacks. To my best recollection none of the white kids ever messed with me or teased me or started fights with me. When I moved to Dallas to begin high-school there were now 3 races, whites, blacks and latinos. Guess what? Right I had lots of (negative) run-ins with not only the blacks but the latinos as well.
Was the problem with me? I dunno, I tried getting along with everyone... every-one. But like grade/jr. high the whites relatively left me alone. So do I carry a flaming brand against non-whites? If I did I dropped it down the well a long time ago. Especially since it was a black man who rescued me from a potentially serious mugging in Washington D.C. when I started attending college. It was a black man that assisted me when I was attacked by a black gang of teenagers in St. Louis MO.
Helped me realize what Dr. King was saying... about the judgement of a man will not be based on the color of his skin but the content of their character. So now I've become "color-blind"... when I meet a new person, I will (internally) acknowledge their race sure, but it won't have any bearing/weight/factor on my personal judgement of them. None of the mental "oh I'd better be extra careful with them because they're --insert race here--"
So these people who continue to carry the fires of hate despite all the bans are still trying to spread their message. Makes no sense what-so-ever to me.
But it's good to know what they're up to with their "new symbols" and "codes". It'll help me to know who NOT to hang out with. I know a few good guys who are bald or have closely cropped hair. Either because they have follicle problems or they like it or they're keeping their hair short because they're in the military or just like to stay cool during summer months. Far as I know... they have none of the stupid hatred rolling around inside them.
