Darren Mackay and Jenni Duncombe, from Mannering Park in New South Wales state, say they bought the swastika-bearing flag at a local market for 10 dollars (7.80 US) "as a bit of fun" and did not realise its significance until neighbours began complaining, Sydney's Daily Telegraph reported.

Did they live on Mars for the last 75 years?

"...did not realise its significance..."

I think that we have the "WTF!?" moment of the day. Have these people been living under a rock their whole lives? Will an Aussie FReeper please smack these people on the head for us?

Note - the flag has apparently been taken down at this time. Hopefully they've seen sense.

Here's a non-confrontational solution, buy their daughter another flag. Yes, they could be giving a BS excuse, but this would smoke them out and find out if they're of goodwill.
