Skybird,
The swastika was only an example. Burning crosses was also an example. I'm not necessarily saying that tolerance is the key element in the banishment of either example. My question remains;
does the banning or making a symbol illegal actually make us more tolerant of other peoples opinion, or does it just drive the 'hate' more underground and cause more trouble and decension?
