He has Hitler's posts everywhere even on his desktop(computer). I also realised that he watches movies that are way scary like people being killed with knives,swordz blood flowing. .and he will be laughing at that. The movies are not suitable for his age. Is this acceptable? Thanx

Mixing Hitler with a specific "skinhead" dress could be worrisome because it is an initiation process into that subculture. Certain punk music also goes along with that lifestyle, so see if your brother dresses a certain way, listens to certain music and hangs out with like dressed guys ...then I would worry. Also ask him about holocaust and see if he is denying it and if so that would give you an insight that he is into some sort of a subculture that isn't right. As you describe the situation, it seems to me more of a lead to investigate rather then "diagnosable".

I'm sure its pretty normal to watch horror films play games and have a laugh at the fake violence. I know me and my friends at that age used to watch horror films for fun rather than be scared. Unless he's a neo-natzi or something I wouldn't be concerned.

A couple years back people hijacked the Mountain Dew competition so the winner would be "hitler did nothing wrong" unless he's actually agreeing with nazis on a serious level I wouldn't worry about it he's just having a laugh

You've been back for ONLY 3 days. What do your parents say? Is he otherwise agressive? Has he hurt any animals or children? Does he hang out with suspicious people? What are his grades in school? Does he have any friends?
It could be just a phase... I'd keep an eye on him and I would certanly talk to my parents or close relatives.
