I have a feeling that a nazi flag flying above the whitehouse would be a big thing to see taken down, even if it didn't change the fact that there are skinheads in this country, and probably will be for some time...maybe forever. I don't understand how anyone can see this as a non-issue. Sometimes things change with tiny steps. But tiny steps forward are still better than standing still.

Got that. Which only leaves it on a few million pickups, walls, etc, and in millions of hearts. jtuck004 Jun 2015 #6
