WARNING: Under no circumstances are you to make public displays or references to Nazism, or the Third Reich. This is banned by federal law, and you will be subject to the strongest punishments under the penal code! Overt display of Nazism (e.g. saying "Heil Hitler" or "Sieg Heil" or raising your hand for the Roman Salute), even jokingly and the distribution of any goods having at least any potential to glorify the Nazi Party and/or its ideology, including Mein Kampf, or of any material questioning the extent of their crimes is heavily penalized in Germany as a serious offence (up to six years in jail or a fine of up to 21,600 €). Foreigners are not exempted from this law, and it is extremely likely that it will be enforced with draconic strictness. As most Germans regard such behaviour, even if meant as a joke, as completely unacceptable, it can be expected that someone will report it to the police by mobile phone, and that the police will investigate on it seriously.
