There's a difference between "not politically-loaded decades ago" and "not politically-loaded now".
We still let people use the Swastika if they had a harmless tradition of using it beforetime. But if anybody new uses it, we assume it's because of the murder.
> the non-politically-loaded phrase
You mean its popularisation and heavy use by William Henry Parker III, Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department (from 1950 to 1966)?
He very much used it in a loaded manner to portray police as bastions of good and the last defence against "the criminal element".
From his wikipedia page:

There's also a difference between 'the USA' and 'the rest of the world'.
I don't know how Tso was using it and don't care nor have any reason to defend him, don't mistake me.
