The Swastika was a symbol before the Nazi's came along. It is not exclusively a "Nazi Symbol" as much as a sickle is not exclusively a "Communist Symbol"

And I quote;

The earliest archaeological evidence of swastika-shaped ornaments dates back to the Indus Valley Civilization also referred to as Hindustan, now part of the Indian subcontinent, as well as to the Mediterranean Classical Antiquity and paleolithic Europe. Swastikas have been used in various other ancient civilizations around the world including Turkic, Iran, Armenia, Nepal, China, Japan, Korea and Europe. Meanings and representations within varying contexts throughout its geographical and historical distribution primarily attribute the Swastika and symbols allied to it as being representative of eternity, destiny, prosperity, presence of divinity and protection against evil, holiness, purification, fertility, and celestial objects and their activities, most popularly that of the Sun.

It's also a Buddhist symbol.

Swastika, a symbol of auspiciousness in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism

I'm sorry if anyone is offended by the facts of this post, and yes, the Swastika is still stigmatised, but it isn't a "purely Nazi" symbol, considering as the Swastika is about 5000 years old, thus it's as a symbol of the National Socialist party was about 0.25% of the life of the Swastika. But anyway, don't let this get in the way of the argument.
