I try to be good, and follow world events, and this struck me as interesting...
http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/europe/01/17/eu.nazi.ap/index.html
This is an article saying that because Prince Harry decided to wear a swastika to a costume party, the European Union is now going to hear more discussions on whether or not to ban the use of the symbol. The fact that they are planning on banning the symbol of the nazi party is not what bothers me.... idk... i guess what i'm refering to is a concept of not turning your back to what is horrible in the world. for instance, if someone bans saying a word or doing a thing, or going to a place, then ignorance of the "noun" will spread. Fear, hatred, and wide use of underground bad asses that want to be cool by breaking the rules. I don't think that we should ban the symbol, we shouldn't embrace it... but we should learn from it. i'm not thinking about my generation but generations afterwards that would not be aware of that the swastika means or what it ment. That is my two cents on the subject.
