That is not a “white power” sign! This is what the left does. They declare something bad, and all of the left immediately agrees to go along with the ruse.

This is the Ballantine three ring sign! It means OK! It is obscene in some countries. It has nothing to do with white power.

Just to be accurate- he graduated from WP. He resigned his commission as a 2LT under less than honorable conditions. Yes, some bad apples make it to graduation.

Flashback: Origin of the White Power troll from 4chan.

Note the date of the post.

Same place as the origin of the "It's OK to be white" troll. Which also worked fantastically.

The people going bonkers over this are very much over the top SJW morons, and this should be pointed out to them in no uncertain terms.

It seems some of the problem is people listening to the ADL and the SPLC as legitimate sources of information. Maybe the ADL was legit at one time, but not anymore.

They don’t “misunderstand” they intensionally try to push an agenda on everything.
They are not able to relax and enjoy themselves and they wish to pull us into their misery.

Who gets to decide if a gesture is racist and that it’s not free speech? Is there a national hand sign registry? My 18 month old communicates with many gestures. Do they have political meaning and can she be arrested?

I think that reporter is "secretly" sending a message that I've seen before...

No, it’s not the punching game. It’s the race-baiting white power hand gesture game.

It’s either an “ok” sign, the number 9 in sign language or a rude sexual gesture or any thing.

Who came up with this being a white supremacy sign? Sort of a wimpy little gesture for supremacy. At least the black sign is a powerful raised fist.

The pussies of #GenerationSnowflake need to be treated like any other snowflake that becomes inconvenient.

The treatment involves being hit with a shovel.

Making that gesture with the hand below the waist means that if someone notices it, you have the right to punch them in the shoulder. A little immature perhaps, but not “white power.”

Yep. We were doing that in tech school back in '68.

Cannot ink right now. AP, June 2018. Spenser Rapone ‘resigns’ with a less than honorable discharge. Still a pig.

Spenser Rapone is out of the Army. Discharged with Other-Than-Honorable back in the summer of 2018.

Leave it to the Daily Mail and ever-offended, racist-oriented liberals and democRATS to use their dog whistle skills in divining that a simple "ok" hand sign is now some symbol of white supremacy.
