This can be just as bad as the Nazi German flag to some people, also swastikas are not offensive.

Hitler just used it for his flag just like he took the red colour of the so popular communist party at the time to gain voters.
Not that I personally get offended or care if others did.
*edit*
Also as for why this might be offensive to some people try and look up the Katyn massacre.

Quote:The word "swastika" comes from the Sanskrit svastika - "su" meaning "good," "asti" meaning "to be," and "ka" as a suffix. The swastika literally means "to be good".
