    If you find something as innate as as a flag or emblem upsetting. It is you that have the problem for being offended. A symbol is just a symbol. Only a person can choose to allow it to have life and power over them. Hope this clarifies things for you. Me I love in the PNW, I see Nazi and WP shit all the time. I dislike it, but I don't get offended. By being offended you just gave it power over you by changing your emotional state.

    It's not the emblem but the MEANING BEHIND THE EMBLEM. The emotional response is the same; your description is mere semantics. Perhaps you're envisioning a certain magnitude of response. It's not some overwhelming emotional response but a response is duly registered (by me - and you, apparently) just the same. Besides, how many Americans lost their life and limbs fighting the occultic leadership of the Nazi regime? And if you're Caucasian the White Power movement is not directed AT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY now is it? Not quite the same when you actually THINK about it, really...
