Oh, I was thrown off-track, by the "hate symbol" statement. Didn't
know you americans called a swastika a "hate symbol"... I mean, a
hate symbol could so much to a lot of ppl. Like a davids star to an
muslim, or the long finger to just about anybody, know what I mean?
Besides, I read somewhere that a swastika can be the sign of good,
or evil, depending on how you turn the outer cross parts. If you
make the points point clockwise, it's the symbol of evil, or good
if they are pointed counter-clockwise. Interestingly, Hitler chose
the evil swastika as his party's symbol. How about that for
hindsight. 8*)
