www.tb.no/Fant_hakekors_p__s_nnens_sokker-5-76-7749.htmlIt's prolly the number "95" , it just looks weird..... The family claim the socks were purchased at H & M in Tønsberg , Norway. H & M Norway denies the clothing chain has sold socks with such a symbol. It's not the first time an unfortunate garment creates reactions. In August "Aftenbladet" (Norwegian newspaper) wrote about the fashion chain Zara which sold a striped sweater for toddler boys. The garment was called "The Sheriff" and looked like a WW2 prison uniform fea a star of David on the left chest. "It's like getting punched in the stomach. I react with horror at public understanding of history" , said Ervin Kohn , leader of the Norwegian jewish community to Aftenbladet. In september BuzzFeed wrote about the clothing chain Urban Outfitters who created a storm on social media when they sold a sweatshirt with blood stains. The sweater had the text "Kent State University" which many perceived as a reference to the 1970 shooting in Ohio. There were four students killed by Ohio National Guard during a demonstration against Vietnam. It was never our intention to play on the tragic events that took place at Kent State. We are extremely sorry that the garment was perceived so , said Urban Outfitters.

I have no objections other than the use of the non-word "prolly" in place of probably.

Seems to me like an attempt at reproducing the truck's decal in low resolution that ended up accidentally looking like a swastika if you're easily convinced that everything you look at is a swastika.

I still think that song would be a badass theme for a major heel wrestling stable. Also, Nazi symbols on socks? Please. Did you see Donald in the 40's. That duck dreamed he was a Nazi.
