at that, i also noticed that the now clothing brand 'independent trucking company', makers of skateboard trucks, brandishes the iron cross. similar to the iron cross that hitler used. i discussed this with my uncle and apparently, independent made skateboard trucks in the 1970's when racism was more obvious. they took heat for it then and now continue using the iron cross.

A friend and I bought a few Independent Trucking shirts. Neither of us really made the connection with that logo. One day we both happened to be wearing them when were talking to a couple German guys who pointed out the similarity. Then we all had a good laugh about how it's a good thing there were no Jews around, as they might feel a little uneasy.
