Swastika carved into green at Lakeville golf course

LAKEVILLE, Mass -- Police along with the Secret Service are investigating after a local country club discovered a swastika carved into the green.

Lakeville County Club workers discovered the vandalism early Monday morning.

Carved into the green on the 18th hole was a swastika next to President Barack Obama's name.

The vandals snuck in at night and carved their message of hate, according to the owner of the country club.

"We don't know if they did it with some type of cleated shoe, or they had some type of tool and this time of year to have that happen, it's a problem it's much harder to fix now," said Lou Mincone, the assistant manager of the Lakeville Country Club.

Since Massachusetts is full of liberals, odds are it was done by an Obama supporter.

Gotta be “skinheads” or “neo-Nazis”.

You know that army of millions that threatens every community in the land.

Hollywood says so.

Maybe it's a good luck sign. It certainly isn't a nazi symbol, that's backwards.

I agree. The Corruptocrats union/race/gender thugs have been doing this kind of crap for the last three months. Remember their attempts at their version of the “Reichstag fire” at the Colorado Corruptocrat HQ? The moonbats were howling about “reich whing haters” until they found out that the perp was one of their own-a “transgendered” leftard whack job.

In some Buddhist temples, I noticed both versions of the swastika.

Interesting...the left turned swastika is actually an old Christian symbol...turned to the right it is a symbol of Nazi Germany and evil...

Another "self-inflicted" hate crime (done by a perceived victim to draw attention away?)

In some Buddhist temples, I noticed both versions of the swastika.

its meaning changes depending on which way it is "turning" (for lack of a better word)... clockwise has one meaning, counterclockwise another meaning. (one means prosperity, IIRC, but I dont remember which one.)

So perhaps the vandals were only wishing Obama prosperity...

the left turned swastika is actually an old Christian symbol

You mean it is an old Buddhist symbol. It is certainly not Christian, when turned either to the right or to the left.

In Asian towns, the left-turned symbol adorns hundreds of Buddhist meeting places.

Until 1940, the Swastika was on the (left) shoulder patch of the New Mexico National Guard. Red on a yellow background if the memory cells are correct.

The swastika shows up in a number of Amer-Indian locations.
