Two blue-eyed, blonde-haired twins who were members a neo-Nazi band at the age of 11 now credit medical marijuana with turning them into “peace-loving hippies.”

Lamb and Lynx Gaede, who created the band Prussian Blue in 2003, told the Daily Mirror that they now both had medical marijuana cards and are “pretty liberal now.”

“I’m stoked that we have so many different cultures,” Lynx explained. “‘I think it’s amazing and it makes me proud of humanity every day that we have so many different places and people.”

Lynx began smoking weed about two years ago after she was diagnosed with cancer and doctors removed a tumor from her shoulder.

“I have to say, marijuana saved my life,” she said. “I would probably be dead if I didn’t have it.”

Lamb also acquired a medical marijuana card to help her cope with emotional stress from scoliosis and chronic back pain.

“We just want to come from a place of love and light,” Lamb told the paper. “I think we’re meant to do something more – we’re healers. We just want to exert the most love and positivity we can.”

“I’m glad we were in a band, but I think we should have been pushed toward something a little more mainstream and easier for us to handle than being front-men for a belief system that we didn’t even completely understand at that time,” she said.

During a 2005 interview with ABC’s Cynthia McFadden, the girls said that Adolf Hitler was a great man who had “a lot of great ideas.” Their band name, Prussian Blue, was a reference not only to the color of their eyes, but also to lack of Prussian blue residue found in Nazi gas chambers that Holocaust deniers point to as evidence that 8 million Jews were never exterminated.

LOL 11? They either had terrible parents, were crack babies, ate lead paint, or had some severe psychological issues.

Edit:
Looks to me like they were already bipolar hippies

Impressionable young kids, I guess.

I knew some kids in a similar age group that came from a bad family... this doesn't suprise me - the kids I knew were mini Hell's Angels (1% MCers) ... I don't think they had the same positive response to marijuana though. Kids most of the time don't know any better if they are raised in a culture of hate.
 
I think it was mainly just growing up, and perhaps drugs period had a role, in that they can make you sit there and think about stuff, but I don't think cannabis is special for that...shit I've had some of my most peace loving, hug and kiss everyone, hippy, liberal thoughts on meth...

'Marijuana changed us from Nazis to peace-loving hippies': Twin sisters who sparked outrage with pop band named after gas used on Jews claim they've grown up

  • Gaede girls sparked outrage with their pop group, formed in 2003
  • 20-year-olds, who were Holocaust deniers, are 'pretty liberal now'
  • Both have been prescribed medical marijuana for various conditions

At the age of 11, blonde-haired, blue-eyed twins Lamb and Lynx Gaede formed a band and saw themselves as the new faces of pop music.

But instead, the girls from Bakersfield, California, would soon be labelled the 'new faces of hate'.

Not surprising when you consider the group they created in 2003 was a neo-Nazi outfit called Prussian Blue - named after a by-product of the poison used to gas millions of Jews in the Holocaust - at the suggestion of White Nationalist leader William Pierce.

Now however, at the age of 20, the twins have radically transformed themselves from hate-spouting extremists to peace-loving hippies.

And the reason for their change? Marijuana.

I guess for a DM reader, the prospect of a drug changing someone from a Nazi to a peace-loving person is actually quite scary.
 
It's really funny reading the DM article comments, watching them struggle over whether they hate nazis or liberal stoners more :p

Now someone needs to hook these chicks up with some MDMA....
