The Nagaland People’s Cock

Reader Nikhil Apte writes in:

Speaking of offensive symbols, did you know that the Nagaland People’s Front uses a cock as a symbol?

Going by current logic, this should be offensive to all non-Naga people whose fronts do not have cocks as symbols.

Also, the cock they use seems to be, well, a somewhat small cock. But they’re not a big party, so that’s okay, I guess.
