The swastika indeed stands for racial prejudice, but kinda ironic that some of its biggest opponents today believe that they are the members of a master race, prophecised to be the chosen people and cleanse their homeland of other ethnic and religious groups.
The debate about the freedom to don hate symbols and oppressive items of clothing is basically a matter for secular politics to decide, or at least should be. There are pros and cons to allowing/prohibiting these things, and good arguments on both sides. All we can surely be certain of is that racism, political and religious extremism is fucking repulsive whatever form it takes, oui?

Just for the sake of information, the site being referred to is not a hate site. Only a person who just plain fucking hates Muslims would have a problem with it's existence. That said, it really is not much of a site, and really does not update with any kind of frequency. It is of no real consequence actually. Few have heard of it and it really does not deserve to be any better known. But it is not a hate site.

A symbol that was co-opted by the ideology that perpetrated those crimes. Would you condemn a hindu for displaying a swastika? Offence is taken, not given and a symbol has no meaning except that which it is given.

Well how about you got to a synagogue and do the hitler salute and see what happens

Just because an action is stupid does not mean it should be illegal. Would you condemn the hindu or not?

No, because the hindu swastika has a different meaning than the Nazi swastika

So it's ok as long as you assign it a different meaning? Or is it only offensive if a certain group of people display the symbol?

Its impossible to assign the swastika a different meaning now that hitler used it

I may need to explain myself more, I think you are just being difficult on purpose.
If a hindu is using it, its likely to mean whatever it meant before hitler stole it.
If anyone other than a hindu uses it, then it is automatically assumed that they support hitler and the murder of 6 million jews, gays and gypsies.
And you still didn't address what I said earlier. Should we be allowed to not wear anything we like either? Should people be allowed to go outside with no clothes on. Cause over here, that isn't allowed
