Furzi's gather to protest Spork's permanent ban
We have destroyed their Nazi store: Linden Lab has DELETED all the objects in their store. Das Waffenamt is no more!
We have eliminated their leader: Spotz Spork, the leader of the Nazi Furs, has been PERMANENTLY BANNED from Second Life!
We have gotten one of their members ARRESTED: Orkronos Brandenburg was caught by the police in real life with illegal weapons and now faces serious charges!
Several other members are BANNED, and their inventories are lost FOREVER!
The evidence of their racism and anti-Semitism: click here.
“Askiloh bederech tomim mosai tovo eilo es’haleich besom l’vovi bekerev beisi,” I will concern myself in the way of integrity, when [the opportunity] comes to me – I will walk in the integrity of my heart within my house – Tehilim 101
In the words of King David we will ‘not set before our eyes works of wickedness’ the ‘doing of crooked things we hate, thus it will not cleave to us.’ Therefore we are actively combating all kinds of anti-semitism and neo-Nazism in SL. After a couple of victories we are most honored to announce yet another major victory for justice.
A victory, perhaps even greater than the others. After many months of preparation and hard work of members of the Second Lifers Against Hate, the Second Life Jewish Defense League, and the Zionist Association of Second Life we are finally able to announce that Furzi leader and creator of the Nazi uniforms and objects sold in Das Waffenamt is permanently banned by Linden Lab.
All Nazi items have been forcibly removed by Linden Lab. The selling of Nazi regalia and anti-semitic propaganda is now forbidden.
Our enemies are scared and went into hiding, Das Waffenamt is now empty of Nazi posters and vendors and is nothing more than a sad place people come together to mourn their old Nazi headquarters. No longer will they be able to ridicule the Shoah in Das Waffenamt.

“Yeivoshu v’yachperu yachdov s’meichei ro’osi, yilbeshu voshes uchlimoh hamagdilim olio,” – Let them be ashamed and humiliated together, those who rejoice at my hurt; let them be clothed in shame and disgrace, those who magnify themselves against me, – Tehilim 35:26.
This was a team effort. We would like to thank ALL of the individuals that gave their time and effort to complete this operation. You know who you are.
The SLAH, SL JDL, and ZASL are committed to fighting hate groups in Second Life to end the intimidation and degradation of others. Please report any hate incidents to Second Lifers Against Hate. Fill out an Incident Report.
You can IM Brandon Lindman or if you would like to send us e-mail the address is slah.report@gmail.com.

Consider volunteering for an assignment. Take it from us – you’ll enjoy the feeling of making a difference!

Kol hakavod: excellent work! The real life arrest of one of these people just goes to show that anti-semitism never remains ‘virtual’ and must be banned wherever we find it. Elise Friedmann, director anti-semitism research CIDI, the Netherlands

Nazi Furs are not necessarily Nazis in Real Life, I’m part of the Nazi Furry Fandom too, that doesn’t make me hate Jews and stuff, I’m in for the Uniforms, Weapons and other stuff. you destroyed a harmless virtual shop that used to be home for hundreds of players.
Some of them might have been right oriented, but what about the poor people who weren’t ?

Posting the face of a person, weather a criminal or not with out there consent is illegal.

I am friends with Orkronos Brandenburg in sl, and he is not a bad person. and posting information like him being arrested without his consent is immoral and wrong, and i believe agains the law.

@Kiro He broke very serious weapons laws, and got caught. You are criticizing someone else for pointing that out??
He committed a crime for which he was arrested. Crimes against the state are a matter of public record in the U.S. and since I am not Canadian I am not subject to their law. I could post his mug shot too if I so desired, and the specific charges filed against him. In fact, I maintained his privacy to the extent that we did not release his real name. That was out of the kindness of my heart. Anyway, do you really expect us to brush the dirty little secrets of neo-Nazis under the rug?
@3 (None) If you are referring to Intellectual Property law that only applies in a for-profit venture. We do not charge for any services or goods. If you are referring to privacy laws see above.

So these players were banned for reinacting historical events.
“You must understand the past to understand the present.”
Does killing someone in a first person shooter VIDEO GAME make me a bad person? Does this mean I am going to go off and shoot my neighbor? I have been playing these games for a large majority of my life and I have yet to touch a firearm and don’t plan on it ever.
Just because there are a few nuts out there in the world doesn’t mean everybody is like that. You condemn the masses for the actions of one person. This is the way of things.
So let’s go back to the actions of these attackers: ASSAULT on the character of these people, DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY over the shops.
I can also say there is harassment involved by these would be attackers. They will never be brought to justice because they are “IN THE RIGHT”.
Just because you do something in a FICTIONAL VIDEO GAME does not relate to real life, hence the name “SECOND LIFE” not “FIRST AND SECOND LIFE”.
I don’t support nor condemn people for their beliefs, or actions until I understand it fully.

@Volfy
Incorrect. They were not banned for reenacting historical events or role play of any kind. See the evidence for yourself: http://www.jdlsl.com/SLAH.html
