It depends largely on who has the tattoo. If it is being worn by a white supremacist than it probably is a designation of white supremacy and/or Nazism.

If it's being worn by someone who looks more like a hippie than a Nazi, then it is probably more symbolic of the original meaning of the swastika, which had nothing to do with Nazis or white supremacy. This is because in many Eastern faiths and cultures (Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, etc.) the swastika was and still is a symbol of peace and luck.

Contrary to modern Propaganda, the swastika was not invented by the Nazis, nor was it originally meant to be a symbol of hate. Unfortunately, one idiot with a bad mustache thought it would be a cool symbol to promote hatred, and now most Western cultures associate swastikas with hate.

How can a person with swastika tattoo really be a Christian at heart?

Easily. Have a swastika as body art does not mean that person is not Christian. Swastikas were used as religious symbols long before the Nazis adopted them. Furthermore, a tattoo does not necessarily reflect a person's current beliefs. Many people have gotten tattoos that they have later regretted.

If you live in Ontario and you want to get a swastika tattoo is it legal getting it because you find it interesting and support the fact that it is a religious peace symbol?

The swastika associated with Naziism is NOT a religious peace symbol. The religious Zoroastrian symbol is a cross with four arms facing a completely opposite direction than that of the Nazi swastika. Regardless of where one lives, there can be only one reason to choose the latter symbol as a tattoo, and it is reviled by all thinking people.

Rudyard Kipling used the swastika in the context of its original meaning as an ancient symbol of good fortune and well-being. At that time, the swastika was not associated with the negative connotations it later acquired. Kipling likely included it in "Soldiers Three" as a symbol of luck.
