Oops, he did it again.Former major league pitching ace and current ESPN analyst Curt Schilling has found himself once again in the midst of a social media maelstrom.This time he is on the wrong side of the ledger.MORE: A few months back, Schilling was heralded by thousands for and against the culture of misogyny within social media. In that case, the former All-Star decided to go after internet trolls who sent vulgar tweets about his college-bound daughter.This time its Schilling who is the offender, tweeting and quickly deleting .Its not the first time Schilling has Anthony Zettel Jersey offended, but it is the first time ESPN suspended him, pulling him off his a signment as an analyst on their Little League World Series broadcast.A historical fascinationIn the last 24 hours new cycle, more information has come out about Schillings fascination with World War II era history, including Nazi memorabilia.Journalist Hilary Sargent of World War II memorabilia, which includes Nazi uniforms complete with swastikas.Some have found troubling Schillings desire to obtain Nazi memorabilia. Schilling efended its inclusion within his collection to Sargent, stating it is not a Nazi collection. Its a collection of World War II stuff.Sharp criticisms about Schilling owning Nazi items have revolved around the genocidal actions committed by those who once wore those Nazi uniform, badges, and helmets Schilling now po se ses as part of his collection. This is a point that Brown University profe sor Omar Bartov shared with Sargent, observing If these people only knew how much innocent blood was spilled by the wearers Myles Garrett Jersey of these elegant uniforms they might take pause. Or not.Others note that acquiring Nazi memorabilia takes quite a bit of effort due to who is willing to openly sell such items. Indeed, as Sargent notes in her column, online sellers such as eBay and Amazon.com as well as auction houses Sothebys and Christies deem most Nazi memorabilia offensive enough to be banned. This means that Schilling has had to partake in extra measures to locate sellers who are offering Nazi memorabilia for his purchase.The reason most are even aware that Schilling po se ses these items is that he posted pictures of his Nazi memorabilia on Facebook as part of his bigger World War II collection. After some were bewildered and even disgusted by Schilling posting (or even po se sing these items), he defended his right Jaelen Strong Jersey to own such items.As part of his defense, Schilling declared I have never done anything to offend anyone. I dont have a racist bone in my body. People that know me know that. I cant help what people get offended by. I cant help how people want to interpret things.But alas Schilling doth protest too much about not having done anything to offend anyone.Racism resides in the heart and mind (not in your bones)Schilling has an established track record of remarks and off-colored jokes that some find quite offensive. But, as illustrated in his comment above, his defense to those who take offense is that he cannot help if others are too thin-skinned.Schillings claim about never doing anything to offend surely caught a number of Latinos by surprise. Latino baseball fans recall Schilling mocking a Latino accent saying while Sammy Sosa was being interviewed on-air during the 2002 Home Run Derby. That public mocking, the tendency of those like Schilling to make fun of Latino Cleveland Browns Jersey players communicating in English, contributes to the trepidation that so many Latinos in baseball (and beyond) feel about speaking publicly in their second language.The most recent posting of Schillings comparing Muslims and Nazis is not the first time he ventured into potentially offensive areas, this documented in . A number of Schillings recent postings on social media included one about an entrepreneur in Afghanistan who was raking in the dough after inventing prayer mats that were actually land mines.That Schilling found humorous the indiscriminate killing of any Muslim (not just those deemed radical Islamists) observing their religious practice of prayer is cast into a different light when one recalls what transpired in Charleston, S.C. this past June. Lest we forget that is when neo-Nazi sympathizer Dylann Roof attended a gathering at an African-American church and opened fire, leaving nine Christian worshippers dead.So while Schilling claims not to have a racist bone in his body, perhaps we ought to be more concerned about the thoughts and actions of others that his mind finds so Trevon Coley Jersey humorous that it compels him to willingly share it on social media.SN contributor Adrian BurgosJr.is profe sor of history at the University of Illinois.
