The dorks that pulled this stunt knew exactly what they were doing. It's newsworthy, but nothing to get your panties in a twist over. It's a fucking flag for god sake. I could fly the Iranian or confederate flag all day long in NYC and hardly anyone would be smart enough to figure it out.
 
What the fuck? Why would a cross worn by a "Wiccan High Priest" be viewed as "evil"?

Because it's worn by a Wiccan high priest? I thought that would be simple enough to speak for itself.

You do know that Wicca is a rather positive and peaceful religion, right? One that its followers view as "Good"? What then could be seen as evil about a High Priest/ High Priestess wearing a cross?

You mindless Mundane. Most Wiccans are Pagans. I am a Pagan, as "Paganism" is a broad term that describes many great religions. The cross has its roots in Paganism, not Christianity you fool. The cross creates four quarters. Four seasons, four classical elements, four directions. Two solstices and two equinoxes= four extremely epic and sacred moments of the year. Four midpoints to those moments, also celebrated. The cross symbolized these things long before Jesus worship. The Pagan cross usually relates to the Earth, the yearly cycles, and the significance of the number four in human culture.

So tell me what "could be seen" as so "evil" about a Wiccan High Priest wearing a cross, when it was sacred to Pagans long before the Holy Jesus Christ.

They deny Christ. From a Christian perspective that makes them evil. I'm sure that Hitler, Mao Tse Tung, and Pol Pot had their "peaceful" and "gentle" moments but that doesn't make them righteous.

Thanks for your totally insignificant explanation of pagan beliefs and symbology. The cross from a Christian perspective represents the tool by which Jesus Christ was crucified for our sake. That's all that matters to me but I don't worship the cross ... I worship the Savior.
 
The flag I carry as my avi was flown by the fiercest and most brutal empire the world has ever known, yet you can buy a t-shirt with the Union flag emblazoned across it and walk down Fifth Avenue with legal and moral impunity. The Third Reich was a pussy cat compared to the British Empire, yet the Swastika is more stigmatised than the Union flag. I can only wonder as to why that is (well, I've got a fairly good idea).

You can't hide from documented facts, but you can sure ignore them, which seems to be the case with the Union flag.

The British empire eagerly committed genocide on three continents, wiped-out and enslaved millions and regarded natives as little more than animals. Overall, it probably killed more people than the Roman Empire and the Third Reich combined. And don't forget that we were the ones who invented the concentration camp, the most infamous of all things 'evil'.

The difference being, is that what the Union flag stands for doesn't really pose much of a threat to the world's power brokers and the international establishment. The Swastika in its Nazi form, however, does. A racially-aware/conscious White race would pose a huge threat to the New World Order, which is why any signs of developing racial solidarity are stigmatised.
 
Pretty damn sad that one creepy insane man ruined that image that has been around for thousands of years due to his insanity.

Not in the few years the Reich held power.

May be so.


But the nazis and their obnoxious flag lost the war. And England and the allies won it....live with it !


Enough said.

If Germany had triumphed in Europe I think it's a fairly safe bet that the Swastika - in its Nazi form - would be celebrated to this day. Hitler didn't ruin it, he simply lost due to his own arrogance and insanity. The Swastika has been stigmatised by the mainstream media of postwar Allied nations.

Either way, I don't really care about people's attitude(s) to the Swastika and the Union flag, or the double standards that are used to excuse one over the other. Anyway, there's a new totalitarian regime on the block in Europe and their flag looks like this:

As much as I love my country we have to admit that the good, ol' American flag has been behind a tad bit of bloodshed. We put the American Indians on reservations; put the American Japanese in concentration camps; killed hundreds of thousands of our own in a civil war; enslaved a race of people; etc. Although I still love what the flag means to me it may be seen as a symbol of evil to someone else.

Through all the wrongs there was always dissent, and is always dissent. Americans never cease questioning, arguing, and developing.
 
The Nazis were masters of manipulation. They used a peaceful symbol [swastika] and convinced the people that their Fascist government was Socialist.

The economic situation was dire, a plurality of the the German people wanted strong leadership, and a reason to unite; the Nazi party offered that, a commen enemy, a reason WHY things were so bad, they had been CHEATED, a conspiracy. So they united AGAINST. Hitler consolidated power quickly, and then there was no dissent, that could be heard.
 
Yes, evil is part of history, and flying the Swasika is the US is an insult to every American that served in WWII. In particular, those that died, or were injured in that struggle against Fascists.
Not to mention the millions of innocent civilians who died in the concentration camps. New York officials need to have them removed from the beaches ASAP!

THAT needs to be changed also.

Bullshit. The Stars and Bars are not anything like the swastika, Peach. That hatchet was buried when Reconstruction ended, and you liberals want to return to Reconstruction era repression.

Aint gonna happen, girlie.

Bowie, I see you use the Stars & Stripes, thank you. I did not say the two were equivalent. I want the Stars & Bars relagated to history & Civil War reenactments.

And you have every right to pursue that, as I have every right to oppose you and promote the use of the Stars and Bars where I think appropriate.

What offends me is that some are smearing that symbol as representing racism, when it actually was used as a battle field rally flag and was never used in any way to process slavery, as the Stars and Stripes was. Everything that these post-modern hate America First types say about the Stars and Bars can be said many times over about the Stars and Stripes which was the flag used in every slave market, court that sent slaves back to their owners or ship that carried stolen labor to foreign ports.

These leftist shitbags will eventually turn their rhetorical guns on the Stars and Stripes with the same vitriol. And what grounds will anyone have to argue against them when they will actually have facts on their side then?
