Default Symbols for the symbol-minded - George Carlin

Quote:
I would rather not make any kind of declaration other than the current one we have laid out in the past on this subject, and that is, the nazi symbol is not a problem as long as it is in a historical context and not a political statement.

I prefer to see less of Hitler's logo, but that's just me. As long as we do not have an abundance of people displaying large swastikas as political statements, we should be ok.


I also know this subject, as well as many others, will be raised from time to time. Some people will have strong feelings about it but as long as we all agree to discuss it civilly, we're good.
Hear, hear Neal. I think you summed it up nicely. As to the signature blocks and swastikas that's another issue (e.g. suppose someone has a pic of their chosen U-boat commander and there's a nazi symbol in the background, is that political or simply a historical picture?) ergo I think should be dealt with on a case by case basis and hopefully the final decision will be respected.
