All I was trying to do here is to educate this community to look at the logo's subjectively and not with emotions.
My intentions are not to offend rather to educate.
I am sorry if educating is seen as offensive.

This seems awfully opinionated and is a bit condescending to the
community. Are you saying the community has rotten taste and doesn't
pick logos that have "thought" behind them? I personally find this
statement offensive.

What do you call the Apache feather then? I am sorry, but that feather
is obviously attached to a form of native american image. Do you feel
this way about the current Apache logo?

Is there a reason this type of verbage needs to be used? Can we engage
without showing disrespect? IMHO, I think we don't need to rate
people's taste factor. Again, I find this particularly offensive.
