    Classroom “Nazi Salute” controversy at Mountain Brook High School

    Fair enough, and I'm not saying you do this, but people in this thread, are demanding their values/thoughts/ideas supplant those of others, which is what I don't understand, You have the right to turn away, you also have the right to request someone to stop doing something that bothers you, but...

    So then, it's the person behind the symbol that matters, so then wouldn't it be prudent to not make assumptions about the person BECAUSE of the symbol? You clearly have problems if you are letting symbols dictate your emotion.

    Classroom “Nazi Salute” controversy at Mountain Brook High School

    How do you figure? By not allowing ****ing morons to dictate what is acceptable or not?

    Classroom “Nazi Salute” controversy at Mountain Brook High School

    Interesting.....not that I really care about symbols, like I said, I just find it strange how you would allow one person to dictate to you, what is acceptable or not, I do not understand that mind frame.

    Classroom “Nazi Salute” controversy at Mountain Brook High School

    So essentially, you believe one person/one group, should have the ability to dictate to everyone else, what is acceptable and not? Interesting.
