Found this one on eBay a while ago and thought it looked interesting. Assuming the outfit is real and not just a repro, but the seller claimed it was real…

I guess the biker had his reasons for wearing a Zodiac patch, which were most likely unrelated to THE Zodiac Killer.

I would suggest he was just reveling in the sense of notoriety that the symbol now possesses. OR was it just intended as some sort of "white power" statement thing?

Interesting nevertheless.

That is not a Zodiac patch. It is a White Pride patch and rather racist. The crosshair symbol is the logo for a huge racist forum called Stormfront. You can find that many racist groups use the patch, just Google around.

You must not have seen that I did say "OR was it just intended as some sort of "white power" statement thing?"

So are you saying there can be no relationship at all between this symbol and the Zodiac symbol? And if so how do you know that for sure? The Klan used similar symbolism going way, way back and there is little doubt that Stormfront based its symbolism on theirs.

Cheers for that!

You really don’t need to be so sensitive, I was confirming what you wrote about the White Power thing and that it is more specifically White Pride. Chill.

Okay.

There is no evidence that Zodiac was a racist, but somehow I think he could have been, despite the fact that he killed white people. Perhaps he only selected white people because he wanted white "Aryan" slaves to join him in the afterlife? Well it is something we have to consider… Plus the fact that the Zodiac symbol was white against a black background. So I’m just pointing out: "If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then…"
