And it was still used by Hitler, and it still leaves a nasty taste in your mouth when you see it, and it's still used by nazi supporters..so what that it used to be good? It's not anymore and you shouldn't walk around wearing it.

Also, Hitler stole just about EVERYTHING he did, from his mustache to his strategies to the use of the word heil etc etc.

I didn't know Taylor Swift was blind? I certainly didn't think people would actually think she didn't see what was on that guys shirt. Its not like its small. WOW people are stupid.

To me it looks like a giant X tring to be graffitti style or something, not a swaztika. P.s. I am Black and I write graffiti

"Taylor took pictures with about 100 people that night ... she doesn't know who this guy is and she didn't realize what was on his shirt."
_______________I think this is a very plausible explanation. I have been at scenes where a star is giving out autographs or agreeing to have their photo taken with a fan. There isn't time or reason for that matter, to be assessing what they are all wearing. That said, I would think she would be more inclined to notice being it was her costume party. That said, I believe what her reps are saying.

How the hell she couldn't see it lol. plus all her reps. around her he might as well had his manhood out in the picture if she missed his shirt, bet that wouldnt had happened. In her defense im sure no other country singers have performed in bars where the stars and bars were the theme or diplayed "Noooo never yeah right" lol lol. Im a black man from the inner city of Cincinnati, Ohio. His shirt is American as apple pie.

Look again..the swastika was painted on the PHOTO..
not the T shirt

MeMan>> Honestly? You think of the hundred people or so she took pics with she took the time to step back and check their shirts for something offensive each time? "Hold on, gotta check your shirt for scandal!" Get real, I can barely read what's on peoples' novelty shirts half the time unless I ask them to stop moving so I can read, what makes you think at a casual sideways glance she's gonna know exactly what's on the shirt? I wouldn't be surprised if she never even got a full view of him from the front. You tell me exactly what's on a hundred peoples' shirts tomorrow and be 100% correct and then talk, I bet you won't even remember 10.

This is all absurd, America is way to sensitive. I understand that a swastika is a terrible thing to put on your shirt but there are so many more terrible things happening in the world for us to worry about a stupid shirt in a picture next to Taylor swift. I mean seriously, people are starving to death in other countries everyday and all you people can do is freak out about gay slurs Larry Johnson said or if a ethnic person was offended by a joke that was said at the office this is insane.

I agree with you meman

Give me a break everyone! The girl was at a party where there we tons of people, most of which she probably did not know. Various people were talking to her as well as asking to get a pic with her. Come on I have been at parties and have taken pics that I thought were cool until I got them home and saw someone had a body part popping out or something like that.
Who is the guy in the photo and who painted it on to begin with?
I live in Germany and I see how that symbol has left a negative mark on the country.

Now that other stuff is how you get a bonus or a bailout.

What the hell does Jones and Wright have to do with Taylor Swift?!! Face it, She did something VERY STUPID and INSENSITIVE! Don't try to deflect the attention away from her whit something that dumb.

As biased as you believe Rev. Wright or Van Jones to be, they were smart enough not to stand next to a symbol synonymous with hate.

And if you were Rev. Wright growing up during Jim Crow, you may be a little pissed off too just like some Holocaust survivors, victims of crimes against Israel, survivors of the Armenian genocide, Native Americans and any other group targeted by prejudice systems of authority and social control.

I knew she was a nazi.

Pop will eat itself!

Sex tape is small. Swastika is major.

For all you uneducated yahoo's out there...look up the "original" origin of the swastika...it is actually a good luck symbol...from India...a Hindu symbol for good luck, good fortune, a religious symbol, a holy one, a harmonious one. Now some of you know that, so don't forget it, and pass on the info. However, the ignorant Nazi's thought they would incorporate it into their regime (actually a smart idea,) and due to that, people only know of the negativity it represented, and for some backwoods thinking jackholes...still does. So, hopefully, now everyone who reads this learned something, and in turn will tell someone else, and maybe one day, we will see this symbol as it was truly interpreted. As far as her taking a pic with this guy...SO WHAT!!!! He's wearing it, not her...and for all we know, he knows the true sybolism behind it...and is wearing it for sheer shock factor...in that case, making people have a fit, post it online, and have someone like me school others.
