BERLIN, Germany (Reuters) -- German police raided the homes of more than 300 people Wednesday whom they suspect of posting neo-Nazi music files on the Internet for others to download.


Police said the nationwide raids followed investigations into 342 people who had posted songs by skinhead bands on the Internet. The songs contained lyrics inciting racial hatred, the crime agency said.
"Inciting racial hatred is more than just a petty crime," said Federal Crime Office President Joerg Ziercke. "Skinhead music groups create an enemy image and help propagate extreme right ideas."
Inciting racial hatred, displaying Nazi emblems like the swastika and performing the stiff-armed Hitler salute used under Adolf Hitler are crimes punishable by imprisonment in Germany.

LEGION OF ST. GEORGE "In the Footsteps of Heroes"
Broken Gate
You're just a token in our world
How does it feel to be so outta place?
Brought here from a foreign land
How could they ever think you'd understand
(chorus)
Immigration, reached saturation
A knife to our heart 'cause of a broken gate
Like a rose strangled by the weeds
We gotta fight for sunshine or our Europe will be dead!
Harmony pushed by the media control
But the differences are there for all to see
Pushed upon us against our will
How could they ever think we'd understand
(chorus)
Years of retreat, now the lines are drawn
Out of the chaos Fortress Europe is born!
Now their breeding and taking over
We're second class citizens in our own land
Swamped by mass immigration and refugees
Do they think we wouldn't fight to be free!
(chorus)
Years of retreat, now the lines are drawn
Out of the chaos Fortress Europe is born!
(chorus)
