I recently took issue with a swastika imprinted into a concrete step at an appartment building I recently moved into.
It was only about 7 inches in diameter, and was imprinted into a concrete step so contrast was low. That being said once noticed, it was always noticed.
Anyways, from asking around I learned it has been there for at least a year.
One email to the property management company along with reference to a by law and the step was repaired within hours.
What a dichotomy, was I that overly sensitive to the symbolism of the graffiti. I appreciate the person who did this probably wasn't even a "nazi" let alone necessarily a racist, but still it's the symbolism of the image that irked me as to why it was there for at least a year.
I noticed a grammar error in the second poll option. "is" shouldn't be there, blame the editor.
