I was driving home to the suburbs to spend the holidays with my family when I was on the off ramp and noticed this sign. Is it just me, or are these "movers" blatantly using nazi SS lightning bolts on their sign? I could understand it if it was just one S, but the 2 make it kind of peculiar.
What do you think?
the sign...
Nazi SS symbol  |

Nazi SS symbol  | I'm hoping it's just ignorance- that would catch my eye, but I'm a comparatively* knowledgeable military history buff(particularly WW-II).
*Compared, I think, w/the average US citizen
