Thats fucked up.
When I was in 5th grade I did something horrible....every student had to draw a flag other than the U.S. and it had to be one that related to them in a way. I was 10 yrs old. When it was my turn to get up in front of the class I showed them the Nazi flag/Swastika. I didnt think anything was wrong with it, I didnt know any better. My teacher started freaking out and I remember this black kid named Isaiah asking what a "Nay-Z-eye" flag was. When asked why I drew it, I told her it was part of my family.

I wasnt old enough/had to know how to inform them I just ment it to be a German thing. Back in 1990 very few people back then knew what the German flag was, but most people knew the swastika. Still, it must have seemed really fucked up for a 10 yr old to draw something like that when there is no way in hell I could have come up with that on my own without having someone in my family somehwere along the line affiliated with the party in those days.
