That isn't a Swastika. It's a Manji.

[DataTraveler]

oh my,that is one hell of swastika

[gummis]

Well wishes to the Buddhists amoung us

You know that because of Blade of the Immortal, don't you? hahaha

I never understood people freaking out over Swastika's and some places banning them.

Long before the whole Hitler thing (and correct me if I'm wrong) but didn't many cultures, and even still to this day, see that symbol as a thing of unity / peace?

In Buddhism it is a symbol representing harmony, among other things. It is also a victory rune associated with the sun- I haven't done research to back up my suspicion, but I suspect Hitler adopted 'the victory rune' as opposed the the manji

I did not even notice it was a swastika... I thought it was an unsolvable puzzle or something at first (until I solved it and then moved to the next post) XD

Btw, even today, it is an auspicious symbol and is primarily worshipped in Hinduism and Buddhism .

probably worth reading~ (I haven't read it completely btw)

Yeah you're right. It shouldn't freak anyone out if some skinhead has this tattooed prominently. He must be Buddist!

Maybe another 9 million people need to get murdered while a flag with the swastika waves in the breeze for you to understand?
Perhaps hispanic immigrants. Or niggers. Or some more fags. Targeting the Jews is SOOOOO passé.

why would anyone gas the jews?

[ElBastardoVerde]

why would anyone gas the jews?

Actually, Hitler requested a glass of juice, it's just that his accent was so thick it sounded like gas the jews.

[Sweeney]

why would anyone gas the jews?

For fairly well documented historical reasons, I should imagine.
Not exactly a comparable circumstance.
