Can literally anybody give a reason as to why this is a good idea?

Please remember, while flying a swastika is no longer hate speech, implying that somebody flying a swastika is a Nazi, still is.

Granting hate symbols like swastikas & nooses even an ounce of respectability is absolutely an anathema. Sec. Noem should be ashamed & Americans outraged. This edict besmirches the Coast Guard’s honor & should be immediately reversed.

American families are being crushed by the skyrocketing cost of living & healthcare prices going up. But Trump has abandoned the American worker and middle class because he wants to ... checks notes ... spend his time being a racist Nazi lover

Nooses are symbols of hate. Swastikas – the literal symbol of the Nazi Party, the perpetrators of the Holocaust – are symbols of hate. This isn’t controversial.?

This isn’t how you recruit upstanding Americans into our armed forces.

Disgusting.





Stupid fricks!


U.S. Coast Guard
@USCG
“The claims that the U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses or other extremist imagery as prohibited symbols are categorically false. These symbols have been and remain prohibited in the Coast Guard per policy. Any display, use or promotion of such symbols, as always, will be thoroughly investigated and severely punished. The Coast Guard remains unwavering in its commitment to fostering a safe, respectful and professional workplace. Symbols such as swastikas, nooses and other extremist or racist imagery violate our core values and are treated with the seriousness they warrant under current policy.”

– Admiral Kevin Lunday, Acting Commandant, U.S. Coast Guard

You aren't allowed to use rope and knots in the Navy, I guess.

It's not the swastika's fault that it got co-opted by a Nazi a-hole.

Follow up post by WaPo says the USCG "Changed course and reversed their previous decision."

That's a rather disingenuous way to retract a false story and headline.

They also claimed the CG didn't reply to questions initially.

I can’t speak for the others but that Rep Jack Kimble twitter account is parody.

The only knots a person needs to know in this life are the bowline, clove hitch, half hitch, overhand, palomar and improved clinch knot. It also helps to know how to tie ones' shoes, which is essentially an overhand wrap and a double slipknot.
