“People need to get their panties out of a wad about symbols”
Considering such a symbol was responsible for the murders of millions of innocent people and the combat deaths of thousands of American GI’s, its use was and is unacceptable.

Ok. So what should be done to them? What would be “acceptable” punishment for this, in your opinion?
Really? I thought people were responsible. Symbols are powerful, but they aren't that powerful.
I agree that the use of the SS runes by our Marines is unacceptable, but the calls for these young men to be court-martialed and ruined are insane. Take the flag away and give them some extra duty.
