Harry was just being dumb, not scarry. They are:

Ironically, it's a small step towards totalitarism.

If you could get a top down picture of most clothing retailers, you'd see a LOT of swastika's.

I still think harry was equating the british colonial past to naziism. in a post-ironic way of course.

That would be pure genious.I still find it odd that the press are more concerned about a rogue swastika, and less concerned about the fact that a fancy dress party was attended by several senior members of the royal family with a theme of "colonials and natives" where several party-goers attended as native Africans with blacked up faces.

why shouldn't people dress up as native africans with blacked up faces? Afterall, native africans are in fact black. You can tell by looking at their faces and seeing that they are black.

====================
For the same reasons of historical contexts as the attacks he received for sporting a swastika. Especially considering the vary nature of a "natives and colonials" party attended by members of the British Aristocracy.

Nazis are so passe.

You are self serving liberal Kuz that fails to see the hypocrisy in your thinking, so would you be happy to see the swastika banned and maybe pages of books torn out, replace the word 'black' back to 'coloured' perhaps.
I see what you say about the royals and the 'colonial' party, a bit rich.

I take it none of you ever noticed that the four sided clothing racks at stores look like swastikas from above, yeah?

the whole thing is stupid to me. why cant he dress as a nazi officer? swastikas shouldnt be banned because one political party decided to use it as their symbol.
educate. dont ban.
- unfittoprint0
just because swastikas were used by the nazis doesn't mean should be banned.
see the difference between the true aryans [India] and the regressive/progressive meaing of swastika.
A detail that skipped SS's grahic bureau.

the context of how he wore it was the problem, wearing a uniform of a nazi soldier. if he had worn a white t-shirt with a pink graphic of the symbol, like the ones in the link above from asia, i'm not sure it would have had the same effect.

'I see what you say about the royals and the 'colonial' party, a bit rich.'
- I don't see why not.
Anyway, the whole thing is ludicrously funny - i say 'hats off to the guy', he's the only thing that still keeps me fond of the royalts. AND he's the only properly English royal - not a bloody kraut!
(apologies to my German brothers)

i think harry was being a spoiled little punk who has never had to deal with any consiquences to his actions, therefor made a stupid desicion to wear an offensive article of clothing. of course the swastika has many positive conitations to it, but what he was wearing was the swastika in the german nazi form. that is just wrong.
also i read that prince charles said he was "incandescently angered" by harry's outfit. that made me laugh
- Nairn0
oh, and as for 'banning the swastika' - that's the single-most ignorant and ridiculous idea ever - to think that an ancient universal symbol (of essentially simple geometric design) should pay for a nation's and people's guilt by it's censor would be laughable, if it did not indicate the misgivings our parent state evidently has in us!
How the fuck can quashing an idea make it seem any less romantic and relevant?
To think we allow these fools to keep us in their charge! We PAY for this privilage!

ok. so for all of you that work full time for any company, go to work tomorrow dressed the same way and wonder why as you're escorted out with a pink slip they made such a fuss.
think.
