    lol @ the Belgian town that 'scrambled to dismantle a fountain' after realizing it looked like a swastika from above. Sure it's a symbol of peace in most places

    i mean the use of swastikas on things not intended for hate crimes etc.... like in designs/mosaics on church floors or things that look like a swastika from the air.
    if its used for racist things (skinheads/aryan brotherhood)... take it down, but if its not designed as an object of hate. leave it.


    i didnt mean get over it as in the millions of ppl sent to concetration camps etc...

    No it's not. I live beside it and it is definitely not built in the shape of a swastica.

    There is literally nothing swastika like about that house and there never has been. It's a myth.

    Oh, but ironically a descendant of a holocaust surviver lives across the road from the supposed swastika house.

    Ok I've got my fire torch, petrol bomb and a baseball bat with nails in it, and I can shake my fist if necessary. What time will the mob be convening at?
    I haven't been part of an angry mob for a while

    A German spy, undercover in a neutral country trying to contact members of the illegal IRA, living in a house that apparently people knew was owned by Germans sympathetic to the Nazis and shaped like a swastika?:rolleyes:

    The rumour started somewhere though.

    Is it possible the shape has changed (extensions, etc.) over the past 65 years?

    You've got a picture of an SS soldier as your sig. How do we know your not some sort of Nazi sympathiser and you're showing us a picture of just any old house in order to divert us from the real goings on there?

    look at the pic ? it's a 1920s Art Deco style house. There was 'supposed' to be a swastika mosaiq on the hall floor like the one I posted earlier.

    Trust me, it was NEVER shaped like a swastika, that's just urban myth bollox.
