Everyone seems to miss my point I only mentioned you know who because it was mentioned above. Not because I enjoy or like the topic.

My point is very simple there are countless items, which could be collected, that come from desperate and disturbing times throughout history Civil War, WW2, Crusades etc. To generalize as Charlie did that anyone who would collect any items that may be connected in any way with a historical figure or time was in fact being supportive of beliefs or being on the same level as that of the historical item.

If you gentleman can’t see the wrong in that statement he made, then its best I not try to explain anymore.

I never claimed to support anyone’s beliefs or historical views just pointing out the facts of history. Quite frankly I don’t appreciate the implied tones from the above posts that I do.

Also one more point to ponder. The Roman army was one of the most brutal and destructive forces that have ever walked the earth, they were also responsible for thousands if not millions of Jewish deaths too. I wonder if I mentioned that I had a Roman uniform or coin collection would people be so offended.

No I am not Jewish, but that should have little baring on rather or not I can understand or comprehend tragic times, or have an idea regarding the historical significance of times throughout history, and or have an educated opinion of such.
