nothing winds me up more than americans who lay some claim to be european. americans are so different to europeans that you may as well be fucking martians. and as for the swatika in sin city, firstly that character was a ruthless assassin (i.e. evil) secondly the swastika is an ancient religious symbol in many asian countries. for example, if you look at a street map of a japanese city there are all these little back to front swastikas (or as they are called in japanese, "Manji") that represent shrines and temples, not nazi HQs. so it's very possible that the sin city character and bowie were both refering to the ancient symbol, not the nazi one.
