Racial Identity and Historical Struggle
Gabe: [''Referring to [[w:Nazi paraphernalia|the Nazi paraphernalia]
] that adores Hando's room] Why do you have all this stuff?
Hando: [''Map on the wall has areas coloured in red''; ''Picks up a book''; [w:Mein Kampf|Mein Kampf]
Because I don't want to be a white cooly in my own country. Cause it's not our country anymore. Cause rich people, and powerful people brought in boat loads of human trash. Cheap labour, gooks mainly, and there's gonna be more. I want people to know I'm proud of my white history and white blood. One day it might be all I have. I don't want to go the same way as the fuckin Abo. See that map? That's all the gook properties on Barkley Street. A few years ago it was a white area. ]. Do you know it?
Gabe:
It's about war isn't it?
Hando: [[w:Adolf Hitler|Adolf Hitler]
This book was written by ]. It turned into a joke by other people who don't want to know Hitler's view of the world. It's simply about, the ongoing struggle of the white race and the enemies it faces. You don't know who the enemy is, you can't win the war. Listen. "All the noble cultures of the past declined, because the purity and vigour of the originally created race faded out. They were compromised by the seed of lesser races that were attracted to the works of the superior men. The undeniable reason for their decline was then due to a kind of racial blood poisoning. Racial blood must be perserved in its purity at all costs.

Reflections on Loss and Family Connection
Gabe:
That's a picture of my mum. Isn't she beautiful? Everyone says I look like her. I'm not saying I'm good looking, I'm not saying that, but we do look alike. She's dead now. Was a car accident. She had her head chopped off. I think it's good to be able to talk about these things without cracking up, you know. Besides I know she's still with me somehow. I think that when I have kids, she will be one of them, sort of reincarnated.
