I would hope that people could see them and react to the quality of the art
involved.

Since there are two forums I think you could say in this forum:

I'm not in the audience for your image of tree with American flag in the
background.

while in the lugforum you could say:

You ignorant nazi slut! Take your propoganda and burn it. We will bury you.

Or words to that effect.

No, I take it back, good art can produce an emotional response and if it's
directly related to the image then the comment is welcome. 

I'd respect John Collier's response more if he was just silent rather than
provocative. He could have taken up the issue in the lugforum since he wasn't
concerned about the art of the image, just the politics of having it posted.

Now BD can tell us we shouldn't view Nazi art.
