I appreciate all the thoughts presented here. And I do agree that history, ESPECIALLY the monstrous side of it, must never be forgotten.

I'm guessing the thing was ripped off in the first place in order to go into some scumbag Nazi memorabilia fiend's private collection. Can you imagine wanting an object for your own that's so steeped in evil? I can't.

I guess that's why my original post... I couldn't at first get my head around the contradiction of an object crafted in hatred being rebranded as a tombstone. (tho, the crucifix also shares that odd schismatic distinction, doesn't it?)



I think the bizarre thing now, is that they (the thieves) weren't neo-nazis, but wanted to sell it "to make some money" (!??!)

Er..... maybe nicking a car/clothes/jewelry etc. would have been a bit more lucrative and somewhat 'easier' to get off your hands!
