Wikipedia isn't the place for political advocacy. Unacceptable here, period. Josh Atkins (talk - contribs) 15:26, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. Same reason as on this MfD. --StuffOfInterest (talk) 15:46, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. This isn't in the Wikipedia space and per the "German solution" consensus reached after the Userbox Wars (and also per my reading of [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:StrangerInParadise&diff=prev&oldid=44204142 Jimbo's comments on the matter]). – iridescent 17:02, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. This, and many userboxes were moved/created in the userspace because of the so called "German solution". I thought that the "German solution" was supposed to keep stuff like this from even being nominated unless it was profane, or "within limitations of extreme controversy (eg: no pro-Nazi or pro-pedophilia userboxes, no solicitations)". You don't have to agree with the message, but you should respect the right for it to be in the userspace. Don't be so eager to censor & ban things! —MJCdetroit (yak) 17:10, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
  • Ironically, the pro-Nazi userbox seems to be one of the few political userboxes that hasn't been nominated. – iridescent 17:19, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
