Nazi Salute.

A nice person would have called this thread something like 'freedom of speech at stake',
while the other would have called it 'Nazi Pride' or 'Nazi Salute' or something like that

Cut and paste

I don't like nazis

Yes, and no one else here does (least far as we know) but still doesn't explain your odd actions

Oh and as for the banning of the symbol one last hippie BS thing to throw out there...
When will it stop?

It is a terribly and offensive symbol of the past not fit for modern society?
Without doubt.

But what if one person is offended by something? Ban it too?
Like censoring books.

Also what about the spiritual use of the symbol we now take as the Swastika? It was a symbol of peace!
Should that be banned? How about not because its not a hate symbol...some neo nazi's can just hang out and pretend to be Hindu's. Loophole!

What about the Finnish Air Force? Take a look at their flag. They even fought along side Nazi Germany at one point, that must really stir up some bad memories! Finland was never Nazi, nor fascist, even close, and the symbol predates the Nazi's. Should it be banned?

You can't ban a symbol (or gesture, whatever).

OK, and no one was denying you that, (not yet at least! )
And I don't know, was just unusual.

My gut wants to say you were acting strange and then just playing it all off with "my freedom of speech" to try and prove some point....
But I am an over analytic cynical b*****d

^ actually I think it started as a pro nazi thread, or pro free speech thread, judging by the thread title, I would have guessed the first option.

I'd guess the latter, and the title was used to create shock and attract people.

I don't think Max would be too happy with a thread title like that, and it wouldn't last a second at Max and I's jazz site (coming soon).

Interesting alternative for the thread title.
