Read what the iron cross mean on wiki because it ain't NAZI. (neither is the swastika BTW).

And FLIP is a skate company.

and let me go over this again. If I was to name a prototypical racist here are triggers I would look for. Not saying all people that possess these traits are racist but there are definitely general themes:

Rich - check
white - check
old - check
from the south - check
religious - check
republican - check
socially conservative - check
fought against a minority in a war (ie not the germans) - check

The swastika didn't orignally represent Nazism, but it doesn't represent anything but that now.

How old are you?

Now you're claiming not all who fit those categories are racists, but lets not forget you said you'd be surprised to find someone in that demographic who isn't a racist.

Just a wee bit of prejudice there?

BTW...McCain can hardly be considered to be from the South.
