Foster's editorial page demonstrates the proper response to offensive and disgusting speech: more speech:
The Constitution gives Mr. Johnson the privilege of flying the Nazi swastika, the former Soviet Union's flag — even the flag of North Korea, if he so chooses. It comes under free speech.
He says his action isn't intended as an insult to American troops, but rather is something being done to irk a neighbor.
What Mr. Johnson intended is irrelevant. The flag under which the Nazis marched across Europe massacring millions of people is a symbol of evil despised by people of good sense and good conscience everywhere.
Mr. Johnson trivializes the evil for which the flag of Nazi Germany stood.
Hitler has been buried. Let his flag burn in hell with him.
