What does a 卍 mean to your nation.

Postby Justorica » Fri Sep 25, 2009 3:31 pm

Because a 卍 means peace and unity in the Buddhist and Hindu regions, and Justorica respects all religions, a 卍 is excepted freely everywhere. There are even 卍's on t-shirts and necklaces.

It's a symbol of love.

Kewpee Hamburgers.

I was raised in Flint, MI. The floor of the original restaurant was tiled in them.

<pause>

Well, you had to ask.



EDIT: See, this is how creativity flows. I've just decided that Kewpee's is the biggest hamburger chain in Allemande. Take that, McDonald's!

Recognised as similar to the Swastika used by the Nazis. Otherwise it's use is permitted freely, although frowned upon for anything relating to Nazism itself.

OOCly, my computer shows swastikas as squares so I'll follow it's example and say that all swastikas and everyone caught with one are immediately jailed should they decide to have a rally or protest of some sort.

This goes for everyone.

In their private lives, we really don't care.

In that form, this (卍) symbol is used as a sign for Buddhism, a very large group in Takaram. In it's twisted form, it is outlawed.
