I have heard lots of theories over the years about the origin of the Nazi
salute. Was it Roman ?
Did saluting originate from knights lifting their visor prior to a contest ?
I have a simpler theory. In raising an open hand with the palm clearly visible
shows that the person offering the salute has no weapon in their hand.
It is simply a greeting "I mean you no harm" , think of all those Westerns "
How".
Did Allan Shearer give a Nazi Salute when he scored ? No it was a simple act of
jubilation.
Yes they used to give Nazi salutes in the South Stand, fingers pointed , with
the requisite lateral motion of the arm. I don't think this was intended to be
anything other than offensive. I used to find it irritating more than anything,
spending the afternoon stood on your seat to make sure that your new Jaeger
cable knit didn't get soiled on the seat was fair enough but the gesticulation
was a distraction and it stretched the elbows in your pringle.
Im not event going to discuss deportations from Italy now when I endured 90
minutes of Crawley Town vs Doncaster last night in frost. There was no evidence
of saluting or deportations , but if you were going to hunt down illegals
Crawley would be a good place to start as it is both a shit hole and close to
an airport.
