I find the comment Jap offensive. I find the tag line MS Gestapo offensive.
My grandfather fought German occupiers of Denmark as a member of the Danish resistance. He was discovered to be part of the resistance and spent the last 18 months of the war away from his family and business hiding from the Gestapo and certain death.
My wife’s grandfather escaped Hamburg in 1938 with the Gestapo close to his coat tails. He came to America, joined the US Army and eventually went back to Germany to interrogate captured German officers.
My father served in the U.S. Air force. I served in the U.S. Army. It infuriates me to see a leader of this board associate themselves with some of the worst elements of humanity.
Adding insult to injury are the comments of Japan’s natural beauty, her cartoons and swords. I mean come on now. It’s like saying ….but some of my best friends are….
I still can not figure out why one would want to associate themselves with the Gestapo.
My 2 cents.

And speaking of it....
the worst elements of humanity...going a little too far...your line of ancestry maybe very honorable, yet, your interpretation of it, emotionally very loaded...I find your claim rather inappropriate ...
On the other hand I got the 'joke' behind 'MS Gestapo' and I just hope he'll put it back in place ...
All of my family's fathers fought on the side of their country, which was Germany and I never heard one of them whining ...
