The Macedonian Flag Offends Me.

[Inverse Icarus]

and i want all instances of it removed from this site.

if a symbol i support offends someone, and it is taken away, logically any symbol that offends me should be similarly removed.

and my neighbor has a bumper sticker that says "don't rape history, macedonia is greek", and they don't have a father.

for all i know macedonians killed him.

they're nice people. it's too bad the macedonians tortured him for several weeks before finally killing him.

i am mortally offended by the macedonian crest and want it removed from all avatars.

You're so full of ****, UberKruX.

Agreed...

Was his last avatar some sort of Stormtrooper flag? It had lightning SS insignia and a skull in the background...

[Hueij]

If I remember right, it's the emblem of the 3rd SS division, the "Totenkoff" (sp?), raised primarily from concentration camp guards from the algemane SS for service in the waffen SS.

I'm afraid he's right... Not a very nice avatar...

Uber, why the hell sport a nazi avatar if you´re not a nazi? Seems incredibly stupid IMO. Or incredibly trollish, at least Saint Marcus´avatar (the burning Israeli flag) had some class

I dont think its a big deal. I could care less if someone marched around here with a NAZI avatar or a KKK avatar or something. People should be free to express what they will, and people should learn to get over other's forms of experession (no matter how minor or hate filled they may be). If you have a problem with the symbol you should start a debate with that person about it, and not have it summarilly banned. If the symbol is indeed a symbol of hate, sufficient people will defeat the offensive individual with their insurmountable logic. If one avatar gets banned because one person things its offensive, than everyone else's could be next!

Pythagorus - you forget that this is not a public forum - it is a private one - the owners and moderators have every right to do as they please -- our freedom is to leave if we don't like the rules. Many of us obviously do prefer this restrictive atmosphere, we like the rules. Freedom of Speech is a very two edged sword - I am prepared to fight for your right to say whatever you may wish - in RL - but don't forget that we are all responsible for not only our own actions but for those of others we might have influenced.
