In reply to the discussion: Oklahoma woman shot while trying to remove Nazi flag [View all]Behind the Aegis
(55,187 posts)You took an unpopular opinion but stuck to your guns and, frankly, I agree with you. As a gay Jew (living in Oklahoma), a swastika Nazi flag is abhorrent to me, especially when displayed with pride, but it was on private property. So, again, as a gay Jew, what would people say if a person came onto my property to remove or vandalize my rainbow flag? Of course, this is the part where some will screech I am comparing the rainbow flag to the Nazi flag; I am not, so for those people, what if it was an Israeli flag (more than a few would compare it to a Nazi flag)? As long as the flag is on private property and not infringing on the rights of others (or violating other edicts, like HOA guidelines), then there is little one can do what shake their head at the disgusting views held by the owner proudly displaying the Nazi flag. This, IMO, is similar to political yard placards, and how we see people cheer those who rip down republican signs, but express rage and horror when democratic ones are vandalized or removed.
