Police allege the man also trespassed at ANU and ‘stuck propaganda-style stickers’ on buildings and other property

An 18-year-old has been charged with allegedly performing two separate Nazi salutes at Canberra shopping centres and putting up “propaganda-style stickers” in recent months.

The man is expected to appear before ACT magistrates court on Friday, where police will allege in October a member of the public confronted him as he stuck stickers up at a shopping centre and then performed a Nazi salute before leaving the centre.

The man allegedly performed another Nazi salute on 12 December at a different shopping centre, police said.

    See a Nazi, punch a Nazi.

    We need to collectively remind them why the OG Nazis in WW2 were afraid of Canadians. There is a reason why the War crimes have such specific definitions.

    Mentally ill. What’s the prison system like in Australia? In the US this person could spend years in prison only to leave a more radicalized individual with more Nazi friends.
