   When I was in high school, I made a poster with paisley fabric cut out behind a peace symbol for a geometry project - when sun shined through it, it looked like stained glass. Makes me wish I hadn’t let the teacher keep it when he asked for it

   now only if we could get a 50 year spell of what that sign means. I just have no idea why people think war is justifiable. Killing of one person is bad, but hundreds, thousands, it just freaks me out. Bye and large, its sorta funny that the symbol of peace, and peace itself are so disconnected. For sure those that bare that sign are for peace, some may even work to try and achieve it, but the people who “push the button” have absolutely no reason to answer for what they are doing. It leads to catastrophic loss of life and chaos. It doesn’t seem fair that people can be played like pawns for the sake of ideals, religions, politics, money and fear mongering. Any who happy birthday “peace sign” may what you represent someday outlive you.

   Dang. And I thought it was all about a Mercedes advertisment scheme…

   Or as the bent-nose hardhats used to call it, “THE FOOTPRINT OF THE AMERICAN CHICKEN!” They’d yell, too. Just like that.

   The sign is the combination of the semaphore letters “N” & “D”, for nuclear disarmament.

   Look up Nero’s Cross or Broken Cross. Odd how the meaning of some symbols change over time, such as the peace sign or the swastika.

   Sometimes peace is not always a good idea. Want to become enslaved by a more aggressive nation or ideology? Stop defending yourself. Then you would have no peace for sure.
