Can we let this stand?

I've always been interested in civic symbols, and this one looks pretty good, though, I'm confused as to what the wheat is supposed to represent. And, to be honest, I'm not very well versed on the history of that particular part of the metro.

Oh yeah, got to get back into character...

This is an outrage. This separatist movement seeks to split the New City of Detroit we've recently worked so hard to build. The Livonia Separatist Movement must, again, be squashed. :-)

That's a great flag that Hitlerland Livonia has. But there is one piece that is missing.

A well known public person at city hall who wanted Livonia to opt out of SMART said very clearly, Redford is an important barrier between Livonia and Detroit. It's unfortunate that a few people in Livonia give the rest of us the name hitlerland.

Please remember us when we lose SMART becuase many of us voted and worked hard to keep a bus system that few of us use. The vast majority of Livonia citizens care about others and want to improve and help our public transit systems.

Yeah, and getting rid of SMART was the logical first step, right? lol

Thanks, Danny, for destroying another thread by taking the joke too far.

I was sure their motto would be "Welcome to Wonderland," but I guess that wouldn't go over well, would it?

Couldn't they incorporate the Latin translation of "If you seek a pleasant strip mall, look around you."

Danny.... did you know that if you were found with that flag in Germany today... you would be arrested? .... and shot!

Being German born... I can say that! Whereas if the rest of you say it I would be offended.... (has a vague ring of familiarity).... no I'm Kidding! :-)

Gistok,

In Germany today there are still NAZI's running about, some are in hiding, waiting until time is right to strike again, There are NEO-NAZIs' in Germany, too and their membership is quickly growing then the NEO-NAZIs' in United States. There are some SKINHEADS in Germany, too. Affliated with the NAZI and NEO-NAZI regimes. And they are going a quick numbers. The German Government is trying their best to stop their own person political nightmare from Hitler, but making a strict law to shoot to kill any racist, facist group, will not do. Hitler's seed clones will just keep on growing. Their families will teach their children to hate the JEWS, blacks, Catholics, Homosexuals. And preserve their squeaky clean supreme white race. from the foundations of the Anglo-saxon Aryan Prostetant Christian morals and values.

Danny, I was kidding about "getting shot".

Germany, like the USA has its share of neo-Nazi's. But all the surviving hardcore old Nazi's have pretty much died of old age.

Germany has strict laws against old Nazi paraphenalia. You cannot sell a Swastika flag on German EBAY for example. So unfortunately much of the surviving Nazi stuff has gone overseas.

It is even possible that the stage play "THE PRODUCERS" (a parody on Hitler) may not be allowed to be performed in Germany, although I'm not 100% sure.

Unlike the Japanese, German schoolchildren since WWII have had to study the horrors of their past. So I wouldn't worry about a resurgence of the 3rd Reich... If you want to worry... worry about an emerging communist superpower in China!

Motorcity,
My website is http://savethefueltax.org

Glad you asked for it because I want to educate the public.

For those who want me to go away, I'm opposed to the elimination of money that our transit providers get from the state to be used for operating sudsidies and for federal transit grants and not SMART and DDOT.
