Once again, if people are closed minded and don't do their research on a topic, they will fall prey to fear and hate. I'll agree that the swastika is, when the image is first used, brings to mind......Hitler's Germany, but as stated in this link, that symbol as been used for hundreds/thousands of years before. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika So as with words, symbols are sometimes grouped into the same categories.....only seen for the image which most modern day people take them for, not for what they actually represent.
