i don't think it would be a problem, actually. i mean, nazi germany is no more. the only thing is that, no matter what side somebody may be on, it may be kind of offensive... i have a friend whose grandparents were tortured in concentration camps. it's really scary, and not really to be taken lightly so some people find it offensive when others doodle little swastikas on their spirals or whatever. i mean, nobody really does that, that's just an example. if i were you i wouldn't wear it to school or work, but wearing it around town would be okay i think. i don't know, i don't really think it's a wise decision because it may be offensive, and that's because i've heard the stories that my friend told me. it's not something that i would do, but i highly doubt you'll get the crap kicked out of you by somebody.

No

But if you were to have a run in with a Nazi.. they'd probably punch you in the face. Be careful!

It strikes me that wearing an anti-Nazi shirt would be kind of like holding up a sign that says, "I don't like to be kicked in the neck." It's kind of taken for granted that a person feels that way unless they specifically state otherwise.

I wonder why you would bother. It's not like there's a need to raise awareness about the Nazi problem; most people are pretty much on the same page with it already. If you have a personal problem with Nazism, such as a family member who was victimized by them, then there's probably a more constructive way to express it than by wearing a T-shirt.

Furthermore, the only people who ARE going to respond to your T-shirt are the ones who are offended by it; that is, those who actually are Nazis or something similar. This is not a group of people known for kindness and reason. Certainly we should not submit to such groups as the Nazi Party when we are threatened by them, but really, why tease the animals?

By wearing such a shirt, you would basically be pissing off any Nazi you might meet, and galvanizing them to take action. I guess I just don't see the point.
