I believe that this is a freedom of speech issue. What will be the charges? People can print anything they want anywhere. The media and advertisers do it daily. Why cannot the public express themselves? A Swastika is merely a symbol as much as a Menora or the Crucifix. I kind of like the configuration myself and find the Swastika intriguing. If this offends anyone well who cares. Plenty of advertisements offend me and others. I am sure that Obama is getting a real laugh out of this and perhaps will see the humor in it.
There are far greater issues to address now concerning the country , the great country of America and Obama will not be distracted by some Swastika .
