New York Nazis? I Hate New York Nazis!

Posted on | June 19, 2016 | 63 Comments

A famous line from The Blues Brothers came to mind when I read a story about the Perkowski family of Long Island:

When the Perkowski family moved into an abandoned home on a quiet Long Island street, their elderly neighbor’s son repeatedly warned them, “The cops are coming. The cops are coming.”
And at sunrise Thursday, a SWAT team finally came.
“I’m lying in bed and I hear ‘Go, go, go,” Larry Bilello told The Daily Beast. . . .
Bilello got a first-hand look at the takedown of a pair of Long Island brothers, when Suffolk County police executing a search warrant discovered an arsenal of assault rifles, bomb-making manuals, and neo-Nazi propaganda inside the rundown Mt. Sinai home.
The elder sibling, Edward Perkowski, faces 25 years in prison for charges that includes six counts of weapons and possession of a controlled substance and marijuana possession.
He was held on $200,000 bond.
His brother, Sean, was cuffed on a bench warrant for an unanswered public urination violation, authorities said. He was witnessed Friday returning to his sealed-off home to recover belongings after being fined $50.
Scores of cops folded in to surround the Perkowski’s hideout. And the display of force made Bilello beam. “I was happy,” the 52-year-old contractor said of the moment Edward Dale Jr. and Sean were led out of the home in bracelets. “I’ve been watching them for years.” . . .
At a press conference, police shared disturbing photographs taken from inside the neo-Nazi lair.
The brothers allegedly had their hands on a .40-caliber Glock, six assault rifles, four rifles, 25 high-capacity magazines, a shotgun and stun gun. Cops also found marijuana and hallucinogenic mushrooms, 14 knives, more than 3,000 rounds of ammunition, and $42,940 in cash.
Investigators also discovered a racist manifesto inside a leather-bound binder, along with other Nazi propaganda, CBS reported.
“Today’s search warrant might have prevented a deadly, violent incident like we recently saw in Orlando,” said Tim Sini, commissioner of the Suffolk County Police Department.

 

“To think that this,” Sini added, while gesturing to a photo of Perkowski loot that included a swastika flag and framed portrait of Hitler, “was in the town of Brookhaven was extremely disturbing.” . . .
A review of Edward Perkowski Jr.’s Facebook profile—under the pseudonym Dale Reinecke—reveals hate-filled and sexist rants in between snaps of his beloved golden retriever. (Perkowski goes by “Dale,” his middle name, or “DJ,” short for Dale Jr., neighbors told The Daily Beast.)
On Facebook he’s known as “Übermensch.” . . .
Meanwhile, he also appears to back Donald Trump. In May, Perkowski posted a photo of the GOP presidential contender with the words, “Make America White Again!” His father, Edward Perkowski Sr., responded emphatically with, “BUILD THE WALL.” . . .

Something weird about this: They’re Polish. Hitler hated the Poles. Hitler hated America. Why would Polish-Americans be Nazis?

Also, Hitler lost. Hitler was a loser. Nazis are losers. Don’t be a loser.

    You’re on a watch list because you come here and read the proprietor’s extreme right-wing, misogynistic ravings. Given the first letter of my last name, I’m higher on the list than you are.

    There’s your mistake right there. Islamic terrorism is a myth that only extreme right-wing misogynists accept as true.

    That has always been the lot of the Poles.

    I know. I couldn’t find a decent picture of a box cutter with with message and I was too lazy to make one when I had this on file.

    I do use a utility knife for my box cutting. A much better handle with a belt clip.

    Are you sure he didn’t have a royal butt wipe do that for him?

    Well duh !
    Of course sharp pointy things can be dangerous but hardly a major threat to have 14 knives. I have that many in my kitchen drawer. As a matter of fact, the rolling pin in my kitchen has caused more emergency room visits.

    I’ll let you in on a secret.

    I go one step further.

    I carry a Leatherman Charge!

    A sharp pointy thing AND pliers! Obviously too dangerous to be allowed in public.
