A multiracial yin-yang symbol for L.A.

Harry Baldwin submits a cool multiracial yin and yang symbol, suitable for Los Angeles uses: Starting with the black sector on the bottom and going clockwise, we see the Great Wave off Compton, the Palos Verdes Parrot, the East LA Eagle, and a scared looking Ku Klux Bunny. Like so many such logos, this one has the unfortunate tendency to be transforming before our eyes into a scything swastika.

    The Falun Gong symbol incorporates multiple swastikas (the traditional Buddhist left facing ones) AND yin yangs:

    Has anyone else noticed that Bryan Caplan and Ron Unz will be doing an Intelligence Squared debate about open borders?

    My my. What cognitive dissonance. Western elites supporting a dissident group in China that uses the Nazi/NSDAP symbol.

    The traditional Buddhist ones face left. The Nazi one faces right and is usually tilted at an angle.

    Who cares? The great unwashed masses won't understand the difference.

    They will, however, feel the cognitive dissonance.

    Look at the shoulder sleeve insignia of the 45th infantry division pre-WW2. I wonder if a vet could still wear it around today, assuming he did serve in that unit.

    The left wingnuts are already starting to scream "racist" over any criticism of Obama's HUD nightmare:
