I am mainly German, Norwegian, and Welsh, and I know EXACTLY what you are talking about (the nazi stuff i mean)...its really annoying for me too cuz most of that German is Jewish stuff...
Yea people? I'm a jewish nazi? RIGHT....

The conclusion-skipping in my case has to do with education. A lot of people at school DONT know the difference between a German and a Nazi, so I gotta go explain it all to them. Bugger.

That's just bizarre to me that people are calling people of German descent "Nazis." It must be a regional thing. As someone else from my area noted, most white people around here have a lot of German ancestry. I'm in the minority because I don't (well, I may have an unsubstantially small fraction).

I have German background. One of my grandmothers was from Germany, came over when she was really little though.

I am, and when you have a last name as obviously German as mine, you get lots of "Nazi" crap. You also get a lot of people calling you Von Booger.
