I actually didn’t know that this was legal to do in the U.S.
Yes, this is what free speech looks like. It isn’t always positive
There aren’t a lot of jurisdictions in the world that ban the sale or display of the swastika (in Nazi-supporting circumstances). Australia and Germany are the only ones that come to mind, and Australia has only done so very recently (this year).
Don’t forget about Austria, although I believe that won’t be for much longer as the next head of state is openly a Hitler fanboy
I didn’t know, but that makes sense. My state in Aus also went further and banned the salute, and has actually prosecuted people under that law.
I’m not sure if displaying a swastika is banned, if it is I wasn’t aware of that.
Most states banned the salute. The federal govt recently banned it too, with mandatory incarceration.
It’s apparently encouraged even
