If you are referring to the badge, it is supposed to be the MGM lion with a gold background, you know because MGM uses gold as their logo. Which is now offensive.

Not so much the pointed star design but that it is on yellow background. Jews had to wear yellows pointed stars.
The only resemblance and I use that term loosley, is the pointed parts. The lion, security office, etc. shows no resemblances what so ever to a Star of David.
Aargh — “stars” = points, five, six or seven
I agree. I was a Deputy Sheriff for several years and know very well that a six pointed star is pretty much the norm. My point is that if it’s offensive enough to some Jewish folks to demand a change then likewise the Star of David is offensive enough for Christians to demand it not be displayed anywhere.
Leaping from the frying pan into the fire.
The Jewish people sometimes act like they want God to leave them alone. That’s one of the most ludicrous aspirations I have ever heard of on their part. Everything else pales to nothing. Hey, can you crack a bible sometime? Even the Old Testament is enough to warn against this.
The Nazis got whipped decades ago so bad that you can’t even say anything nice about them in Germany today.
That star is being used by a company that the Nazis would have loathed for the freedom it claims. Maybe Jewish people could think to take this use of the Star of David (or Solomon’s seal) as a compliment, a salute, to their God rather than as a thing to complain about. May there be more of it, rather than less, in the free world!
Did you know that USA is in the middle of the word Jerusalem?
It's not offensive, period.
Anyone who claims otherwise should address their personal issues with a trained councillor.
Thanks, matt04, BUT, I still can’t make it out. Oh, well.
Amazing....guess we will have to ban orange vests and traffic cones because they remind people of ‘Orangeman’(PDJT)
I believe in the Mel Brooks classic ‘The Producers’ they figured the Swastika was designed because of Hitler saying 7 was his ‘lucky’ number.
If you don't like the idea of the 666 Antichrist being offensive to Christians then pick something else equally absurd and demand they change it. That's "Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules." and "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon." in one package.
Alinsky works and people leave his tactics to the perverts and scumbags who hate America rather than applying those same tactics against them.
Apparently after over fifty years of their nibbling away at everything decent in America with tactics that clearly work, fighting fire with fire is still just too difficult a concept for a lot of people to understand.
Those work fine for me, but you're addressing a different group and for them, I agree with your wise words.
After I read that it’s what it was supposed to be, I was kind of able to make it out but it is still not very clear like I would have expected.
