The use of the gesture as a racist message originally started as a hoax, but has since been adopted in earnest by actual white supremacists and members of the so-called "alt-right. Per anti defamation league.

Investigate and determined it wasnt their intent. I can accept that.

Guys on this board( you know who you are) were so anxious to indict these young men that they had predicted expulsion from the service before ANY knew the facts. You can be sure as sugar that this would have been ALL Trump’s doing.

Yes what's the harm in asking what they meant by using a known racist sign? The Coast Guard had the same issue they asked and determined it was a racist sign and punished a Cadet in some way. Using your logic they would not have done anything and the racist would have continued to be able to make his racist sign. There's no equivalent to some 10 year olds making that sign and punching each other in the arm total false equivalency

Whether they saw it live or someone told him about it what difference does it make? None at all. If it wasn't a known symbol they wouldn't have investigated. Using your logic the Coast Guard shouldn't've investigated. They did investigate and they punished one of their Cadets for the same exact symbol.

motive. And when they’re cleared of doing anything wrong, no one apologizes, and for damn sure no one learns any kind of lesson. Because your side can’t win the debate of ideas ( when your ideas are open borders, free everything, and abortion until age 10), so everything is a personal attack.

Dismissing the spread of the hand signal as a hoax overlooks two hard realities: first, that its increasing use gives open license to actual racist ideologues to operate and recruit under the cover of the “plausible deniability” established by less ideological young trolls; and second, that any kind of wink-and-nudge interaction with the racist right is a direct route to its normalization.

No, just a temper tantrum from the left in response to getting creamed in an election they thought was in the bag.

You're all doing everything you can, to help Trump get re elected.

Yes, it is the righties on this site who resort to childless insults and vile comments. Look at your typical post vs the typical "lefty" post and tell me who is the angry one here?

The admin. said they needed to look into the symbols and based on what the cadets said (that it was part of a game) didn't punish them. The CG had the same issue and determined the cadet in their case was using it as a racist symbol. It is not a knee jerk reaction to view a symbol that racists use as a racist symbol.

No, just a temper tantrum from the left in response to getting creamed in an election they thought was in the bag.

I'll tell the superintendant in my town that all the schools need to be investigated, because at every single bus stop, you'll see 8 year-olds playing the same exact circle game that these kids were playing. What deplorable racists.

See - more insults from the right - and yet you claim the left is having a temper tantrum or is angry. You don't see those type of insults from the people on the left here.

Tell the super. that and come back and let us know what he says.

1) Presumption of innocence.They weren't guilty until proven innocent. They were questioned and then the admin. announced the symbols were a part of a game.
2) The significant majority of people are not racists.True - no one claimed the majority of all people are racist or that everyone flashing the symbol is doing it with racist intent (regardless of how Jim keeps talking about his sons playing a game)
3) Why are you assisting a bunch of asshats in co-opting normal speech and symbology. You are doing their work for them. Eff 'em, I am reclaiming my OK sign.

Reclaim it and use it when people ask if you want to go to lunch in 5 min. and you're on the phone so you can't talk.

It was intended to be an insult - a very valid insult, with all kinds of evidence to back it up.

"you claim the left is having a temper tantrum"

I'm stating a fact. I'm not angry. Just stating a fact. I don't generally get angry when my opponents act in a way that increases my chances of winning. That makes me happy, not angry. Many, many times here you've accused me of being angry. It's a desperate hail mary on your part, when you can't refute what I'm saying, nor can you admit I have a point.

The super would laugh in my face. Good for him.

There's a time for genuine, principled outrage. When kids flashing the OK sign sends you all into a frothing fit, maybe ask why that is. Or keep doing it. It's working wonders, which explains why republicans haven't won any elections anywhere since the left began this tactic in the late 2000's. In response, naturally, to getting humiliated, that time by Bush.

CNN called them disturbing and hurtful.

If not everyone is racist, why do you assume we need to investigate when the kids did this at a football game, when everyone was in a good mood? There was no evidence it was anything resembling racism, except for (1) the OK sign, and (2) the willingness of snowflakes to go bonkers for no reason. That was enough.

If one of the white kids was caught on camera yelling "hey, n***er", right before flashing the sign, OK. But there was nothing to suggest it was anything other than what it turned out to be.

You don't think the left immediately convicts accused racists? Again, tell that to the Duke lacrosse players, god knows how many white cops convicted in the media, or that Sandman kid who be a zillionaire soon. How many examples would I have to cite, exactly, before you might say "you know what, maybe there IS a pattern here." How many? Because whatever the number is, I can cite that many. Al Sharpton made a career out of false racism accusations, and you can't run for POTUS as a democrat without getting on your knees and kissing his ring.

You can't say out loud that your side uses the race card repugnantly. Because liberals are never wrong.

If the post below isn't considered angry, you need to get some help to determine what angry is.

Exactly - you made my point. He got in trouble for making the ok symbol bc the intent of the symbol was somehow racist and not the way a 11 year old is using it.

And how did the CG know his intent? - They asked him.

So you don't concede AOC is a major influence in the Democrat party right now?

How long does it take to acquire the ability to deny irrefutable truths, if they happen to be politically inconvenient?

Pelosi did say that. And then she flip flopped on impeachment, thanks largely to the squad. Pelosi had been saying all along that impeachment had to be bipartisan.

The symbol does not have racist connotations 99+% of the time yet whenever someone not with their Left Party Card does it they are immediately called out as racists, and suffer the onslaught or media and the Social Media defenders of Woke.

This is a bigger problem than anything.

And for the tiny handful that do want it to be a symbol of hate, they’re getting a LOT of help from the useful idiots

I agree it doesn't have racist connotations 99+% of the time. This time it might have. It was presented upsides down which I believe is further indication it is racist and it had no connection to anything else that was going on - The video clip on the news I saw did not have cadets punching each other in the arm and I didn't see it live when I was watching the game. For those reasons, I don't think the academies where out of line in looking into it, asking questions and stating the cadets didn't have racist intentions.

There hasn't been any big uproar where people have seen the symbol and are calling people racist. It is as much if not more about the right complaining about it as anyone on the left actually doing it - red herring.

No one would ever accuse some 11 year old in Jim's town at the bus stop who flashed the sign and then punched someone in the arm of being racist.

the Sandman kid was 16 when he was called the next James Earl Ray in every tv station except for one.
True or false? the tv clips we all saw, failed to show that the kids were victims of racist taunts, not perpetrators. watch what you are fed by the media Paul. They obviously have an agenda. Again, how many examples do you need to admit that, because whatever the number is, I can post that many examples.

your side is un-hinged.

The circle game as it’s called, is popular in high schools and colleges too. it requires the ok sign to be flashed upside down. but let’s assume it means Heil Hitler.

The thread is about your sides willingness to go on national TV, and label anyone who disagrees with them, a racist. This is just the latest manifestation.

Hilary is innocent? he didn't lie to protect her predator husband, and lut-shame his victima on national TV? That's all made up?
