On this day, 74 years ago, three young adults placed their heads beneath a guillotine and prepared to die. Their crime? Speaking out against the Nazis with graffiti and hand-printed pamphlets. Their names? Sophie Scholl, Hans Scholl and Christoph Probst. It was a violent end to a peaceful student movement known as the White Rose—one that used the power of language to resist the horrors of the Nazi regime.



Pretty awesome story. Obviously a lot of parallels with what's going on with the trump protesters now

I remember learning about them in my high school German class. There is a movie about die weisse rose, and it's good

There's a movie about the girl on Netflix. At least it uses to be.

They were sore-loser crybabies who wanted so desperately to belong to a legitimate cause that they invented outrages to vent their impotence on national tv?

That is amazing!

The only parrellels that the Scholls and Probst would draw is how similar todays protestors are to the brown shirts of the Nazi Party. Both groups are vile, disgusting, amoral bullies
quote:

Nothing is more shameful to a civilized nation than to allow itself to be “governed” by an irresponsible clique of sovereigns who have given themselves over to dark urges

—?1st leaflet of the White Rose

quote:

The end cannot be seen in its entirety. Order becomes disorder, good becomes bad. The nation becomes confused.

—2nd leaflet of the White Rose

quote:

"Why do you allow these men who are in power to rob you step by step, openly and in secret, of one domain of your rights after another, until one day nothing, nothing at all will be left but a mechanised state system presided over by criminals and drunks?”

—?3rd leaflet of the White Rose

quote:

“True anarchy is the element of procreation for religion. When everything positive has been destroyed, religion raises its glorious head as the benefactor of a new world. Then touched and soothed by holy music, they approach their former altars in the beauty of diversity, taking up works of peace, and tearfully celebrating. Religion alone can revive Europe and secure the rights of nations and install Christianity in its peace-giving office visibly on this earth with new glory.”

—5th leaflet of the White Rose

quote:

This “Führer’s pick” raises its future Party bosses in Ordensburgen so they will be godless, brazen, and conscienceless

—6th leaflet of the White Rose

Shame on you for comparing the deeds of three true heroes, with a bunch of whiners, rabble rousers, and anarchists.

Shame shame shame

I agree with this. To compare that group to the recent crop of antifa loons is disrespectful.

There is a monument to the siblings who started the White Rose Society on the back side of the Ludwig - Maximillan University Main Building with an inscription that basically says not mater what type of government people should be allowed to live. It is known as the Resistance Monument and it is a big chunk of black granite...and it is tradition to place a stone of resistance yourself on top of this monument.

There are also granite "Pamphlettes" embedded in the sidewalks in the area...and interesting enough what may well be the only swastika still whole and intact on a building in Bavaria...the portico ceiling of the Haus der Kunst (House of Art) was done in swastikas and they are still there and very visible....there are actually lots of places where you can still see swastikas on buildings BUT it has to be raining....the rain wets the concrete and they are clearly visible because they were chisled off and smoothed over...there is a transformer vault in a Burger King Parking lot at the Nazi Parade Ground in Nuremberg which has a VERY visible eagle / swastika when it rains...and it rains a lot.

The floor in the rathouse (city hall...how do you like that???) in Ansbach, Germany also has a swastika motif but it is running on an angle and is not noticeable until someone points it out to you and you look at it at the right angle...
