6. The Swastika Did Has A Nice Beginning
But the Nazis changed that. Like it or not, it's almost always primarily displayed as a symbol of hate. Life's not always fair for "symbols". SOmetimes their meanings are stolen, and they can never take them back. I know a lot of SOutherners who would like to fly the confederate flag in memory of the good and not the bad part of of southern culture.

But that's no longer acceptable, as the new meaning, the remembrance of the pain and the injustice, supersedes all else. That's the way things are for the swastika and the confederate flag. And that's they way it ought to be.

ANyways, do you know the IQ level of people who display swastika's!?! Why in the world would you enter into a discussion with someone like that? Would you discuss world politics with your dog? WHy? Because it's a frustrating waste of time.

I do admire your spirit though...

Cheers/
