I could not believe my eyes. Question is what do you do to him?

Noticed that too!

And why did the camera switch to him??

if there is freedom of political expression in london then there is nothing u can do, btw what is the policy on political expression in the uk?

Nothing...

Are we in Nazi Germany where people get things done to them for their beliefs?

No matter how ignorant and stupid they may be...

Good point.

It is "free" speech supposedly but I am certain that there is either laws or unwritten laws regarding Nazism.

Funny thing is, if he done that in Germany he would get busted.#

This cracks me up.

free speech.
do you need wrapping in cotton wool?

people with brains form their own opinions.

Come on he is just calling out for a hot dog or black pudding
Maybe he was in the German army and feels pride in supporting his country during WWII
Non event either way.

It was an ambiguous wave, not quite a Nazi salute. He was also using his left hand. We don't have people arrested for giving a sightly dodgy wave here in the UK.

We've got various laws against 'hate speech' and 'incitement to hatred' since around 2002, so we're getting there.

Its not the free speech aspect I am approaching here. It is the pure shock that these people still exist.

Was this a video or just a picture? If it was just a picture, it might have caught him right at the wrong moment, making it seem like this is a salute. If it was a video, well then, that guy be crazy.

Perhaps the old man in the picture was one of the Nazi youth during WW2 and that gesture for some reason; makes sense to him.

I personally don't like the gesture; nor what it is associated with.

do you live under a rock on mars?

Come on, it wasn't a Nazi salute. His hand slipped. Twice.

It was part of a video.

Why am I not shocked that this thread is overwhelmingly pro-Nazi? What better evidence that history repeats itself?

Whenever the economy takes a dump the weak willed and the just plain stupid flock to the extreme far right.

Look at the crap we have done around the world! And are still doing! Yet you still get people saluting the queen and such... I hate all forms of saluting, not just the nazi salute.

As to what should we do with him... Well as many people have said, nothing, it's his choice what he does...

Nobody's promoting or condoning Nazism (or the extreme far right) here. Silly boy.

Did he actually do the salue or did the just catch him waving? Looks like the lady next to him is waving to me.
