should the republican party abandon the elephant in favor of the swastika as their party symbol.

Should republicans adopt the NAZI swastika as their symbol instead of the elephant?*
Republican presidential candidates are proposing, lobbying and legislationing for Muslims to wear identification badges( jude anyone?), as well as creating a federal database of all American Muslims and use it to track the move of every Muslim in the United States( nazi everyone?). The same rhetoric that we used to prevent 2 million jews from immigrating here during 1933-1945( which would have saved some 2 million lives from the flames of the nazi concentration camps), we are using to prevent middle eastern refugees from coming to us, who come to us in the hopes of escaping the genocidal death-cult of Isis. Syrian refugees are fleeing from terror and are not terrorists themselves. Last I checked there was never a nazi-jew so why are we becoming so bigoted as a nation that we would let genocide happen and refuse the refugees of said genocide because of our xenophobia and racism. What kind of country have we turned into? All are republicans to blame for this modern bigotry? Or just the conservative ones? Questions? Thoughts? Anyone? 

    * side note: yes I'm quite aware of the historical meaning of the swastika, and I myself want it restored back to its original& beautiful meaning. Making it a tarnished symbol is giving another victory to Hitler. But in this specific topic, I am talking specifically about the nazi swastika which was an altered shape of most swastikas, and thus is the officially recognized symbol of hitlerian hatred.

Why are you quoting George Carlin?

Some republicans can be racist idiots, but to generalise the entire party as such would be fallacious thinking.

You college liberals are becoming dumber and dumber by the fucking day man.  Seriously.

I could say the same of conservatives.

Despite what I have said on my forum as well as in others, I don't find the need to elaborate here. It's simply the left who can be compared to the values of the nazis and the swastika symbol. Like most other clueless liberals, you are just a pathetic hatemonger. To think any rational person would believe this, much less believe this is illogical and beyond the comprehension of me.

I think that all this PC rubbish is going too far. Especially when free speech is now being censored, and people are becoming racist under the guise of "Social Justice".

There's nothing wrong with blasphemy. All it is is a different opinion. :)

Same could be said about the left. Sorry mate.

Well, then they'd actually be honest about some of their ideals.
Also, the Elephant is a symbol of luck and I don't consider the US to be lucky with overly conservative people ruling them who care shit about middle-class people, homosexuals, non-Christians and non US citizens. 

P.S Elephants are highly intelligent animals and shouldn't be misused for a party who is controlled by highly backwards people.

It's still better than having a jack-ass as our symbol :)

The GOP in 2016 is not even close to as fascist as the Nazi Party in all of it's existence, not only is what you posted a really crappy exaggerated black and white way of looking at the world but it is an insult to the victims of the Nazi regime.

Donald Trump may be an asshat but neither he or any other Republican have any intention of systematical murdering millions or leading an offensive to take over the northern hemisphere.

No keep the elephant. The elephant shows how slow, and out of date and unmoving their mindsets are. The elephant emphasizes how truly out of place they are. Slowness. Old ideas.

I really dislike this party but Elephants are actually quite smart animals and you better run fast if they start running :nod: Reason why the Elephant doesn't really match the parties ideals x)
