What known fascist is that? Only one person comes to mind who could possibly fit that description and he was not a known fascist, only a suspected sympathizer (and there has been little in the historical record to push the argument one way or the other over the years -- maybe he was, maybe he wasn't). I've read your reasons for disliking St. Louis in other posts, and they are understandable, but I would suggest that if there was ANY proof that the person you are referring to (if I am correct) was a fascist or even a verifiable Nazi sympathizer, I doubt St. Louis would go to any pains to "worship" him.

As for logos - as long as it doesn't belong to the Cubs, I'd wear it.
