    Running through the barricade where the police are standing, and charging down a parade route with a heavy police presence? What police was he trying to avoid? Are you even bothering to follow the facts, or just throwing crap against the wall to see what sticks?

    Not sure what any of that has to do with Harris and the ridiculous statement made.
    I've stated my views on 24/7 reality tv masquerading as news organizations many times.
    As for NBC, I have no clue. I don't work for them nor do I follow their every word. You'd have to ask the writer where he/she mind set was at the time of the writing.

    You missed the point. You quote words which do not say what you claim they say, which is why its pretty dishonest. We had a long discussion of the Rittenhouse case, and I never called him a white supremacist. Why is it so important for you to insist that I said something I never said.

    I could explain it again, but I prefer you just go and read my earlier post again. You know, the one where I said his lawyer tricked him into doing it, and he didn't know people associate it with white power. Don't take it from me, Kyle said it himself.

    So you are saying there is a post from you in this thread in which Kyle said the lawyers tricked him into making the OK sign?

    Yes, I said that.

    Kyle Rittenhouse claims ex-lawyer ‘set him up’ for Proud Boys pic
    https://nypost.com/2021/11/23/kyle-rittenhouse-claims-ex-lawyer-set-him-up-for-proud-boys-pic/
    Kyle Rittenhouse claimed his ex-attorney “set him up” for a photo of him posing with purported members of the Proud Boys and making a hand gesture used by white supremacists.

    Rittenhouse blasted his former legal team, John Pierce and Lin Wood, saying he didn’t know the “OK” hand signal is now associated with white supremacy and claiming he “didn’t know what a militia was” until after he was arrested.

    “I didn’t know that the OK hand sign was a symbol for white supremacy just as I didn’t know those people in the bar were Proud Boys,” Rittenhouse told NewsNationNow’s Ashleigh Banfield in an interview that aired Tuesday. “They were set up by my former attorney (Pierce) who was fired because of that, for putting me in situations like that with people I don’t agree with.”

    To me, it's a national security crisis that a substantial portion of the country believes that the ok hand sign "is a symbol for white supremacy". Simply because while people focus on a "ok hand sign", we've got bigger problems to deal with. It's also a test of sanity.

    It's time we brought the far left, back to planet earth by persuasively explaining the truth. An ok sign is made by pressing your thumb to your index finger. No racism required.

    Drugs and good sense don't mix well. What are the chances the guy was on something that made him paranoid? We saw him drive very fast between the parade and the spectators passing a young white girl dancing yet he drove on past everyone. That little white girl would have been an easy target as well as all those marching in the parade with their backs towards the oncoming SUV. The racial theory doesn't hold IMO.

    I don't know why you keep editing my replies to edit out this question (that seems dishonest) but let me try again, does this mean that you are arguing that when you said that when Rittenhouse flashed the "white power" sign, you didn't really mean he believed in white power? So when you said, "most people assume it" (and hint, most people do not, that's the realm of a few nutjobs) you didn't mean you, simply other people?

    So you don't believe Rittenhouse intentionally flashed the white power sign now?

    Cops said that he reeked of MJ, but I have not seen a toxicology report. I once was stopped at a sobriety check. The cops claimed that there was a distinct smell of MJ coming from my car. They searched the whole thing, and could not find anything. They finally admitted that the smell was a cigar (real cigar, as in a Montecristo) that was in the ashtray that I was smoking on the way home from work 10 hours before. I was left to put my car back together. Which I did sitting right there. They kept telling me that I had to leave the area. I refused to move an inch until I had reattached the back seat that they had ripped out. In all, I made sure it took more than half an hour to get everything straight. I was late for work, but the pissed off looks on their faces was worth it. Those looks got worse, when I spayed them with gravel by spinning my tires when I took off. Oops!!!

    When you look at the video, you see that as soon as he came up on the band, he started hitting them, and then swerved left. Right there, was a concentration of whites sitting very close together. Prime target for what he wanted. From there the police said he swerved side to side to hit as many as he could. One officer said that his face showed no emotions. Sorry, paranoia does not match what happened. If he was paranoid, he would not have crashed through the barriers in the first place. He would have turned off as soon as he saw the first "Parade ahead" signs. Further, paranoia does not explain why he was heading west when he lived to the east. I firmly believe that Brooks thought that if he killed enough whites, then the police would kill him. Then he would have gone out in a blaze of glory and be idolized by blacks. This was suicide by cops with a political/racial twist. Plain and simple.

    I cannot answer for anyone but me. I always thought that the sign that is being attributed to white power as meaning that something is Okay. I have yet to meet a white person that knows what a white power sign looks like. Just to put that into context. I was raised in a somewhat racist family. I have an uncle that used to be the Grand Wizard of a Klan in Georgia. So, I would think that I would have seen that sign in that context before, but I haven't. Not until the liberals started pushing the claim during the Trump Administration. I am not saying that it is not real. Just that most whites do not know what the liberals believe that it is supposed to mean.

    For the record, I may have been raised racist, but it did not take me long to wise up. No real Marine is a racist. When you are in combat, the last thing you worry about is the color of the skin of the person that is covering your six. Further, I believe that a person's real essence is their soul which has no race. When you die, your soul lives on at least until judgement day. Your body, which is the only place your skin pigmentation exists, dies. Your soul lives on. To get wrapped around the hilt about race, is to deny your true essence.

    The idea that the OK sign is racist seems to belong to the online world and not in the real one.

    It isn’t the first time that a gang or movement hijack a symbol or a sign. The V sign (index and major finger) was once a symbol of defiance in UK culture before becoming the peace sign in the 60’s. All that it took was to show it with the palm toward your target instead of the back of the hand.

    The OK sign is generally made with your forearm pointing up and with the sign at chest or higher, while gangs and white supremacist make the sign near the waist and with the finger pointing down.

    just like words, signs can have more than one meaning at the same time.

    Suicide by cop? All Brooks had to do after running over all those white folks was to stop near a bunch of cops and point a real looking toy gun at them then he would have got his suicide wish. But instead he drives home where he is peacefully arrested and taken into custody. How does that fit your hypothesis?

    Thanks for the new and helpful information.

    Don't you think that a large portion of society that just doesn't keep track of all these changes or feel that it's a big deal?

    For example, in the US, I just don't see anything racist in the "OK" sign; I'm 70 years old and it's simply always meant "OK", but that's in the US, in Greece, it is an insulting obscenity.

    Anyone who has spent time in foreign countries can tell you that there are numerous ways to unintentionally offend someone in a foreign country simply by making certain bodily gestures.

    On the other hand I can understand why it might make your life a little easier to be proficient in current US hand signals if you live in a crowded, urban, American neighborhood.

    She had an affair 20 yrs ago. And she just now made it almost to the top? She's 2nd from the top at this point. 20 yrs later.
    That's some influence that it lasted 20 yrs. Wow.

    Story is now officially buried. Largest terror attack in years and it never happened. 6 kids still in critical care with permanent life changing injuries including brain and severe internal injuries. One little girl was crying to her father and asking him if they were going to put her together again. One of the dancing grannies was a customer of my nephew (he installed a HVAC system for her nine months ago). She lived in my parents neighborhood in Delafield (although they did not know her personally).

    Just watched a NBC program where they said it was definitely not a terrorist or racist incident. These are the scum that are setting the narrative. They are many ways responsible for this racist terrorist attack and now they are burying it like it never happened. We will not see another story about it other than local news and alternative news. No FBI investigation for incitement to violence and no crippling lawsuit. They get a complete pass because they are the "trusted and verified" new sources.

    They hate us and they hold all the levers of communication. There will be more of these attacks on whites and I STRONGLY suspect that there are also going to be white nationalist attacks on minorities (those will get PLENTY of coverage). When the people holding the power to stoke racial attacks are completely unaccountable, it is hard to imagine that they will not be successful in their attempts. Look how well they succeeded in driving the violent crime rates up in the past two years. These people are the worst humans in America... even worse than the politicians.

    Hey, you heard it from the pimp himself - he gave Kammalla her start and got her those jobs. Without Willie and their quid pro quo, Kammalla would probably still be some low-level government tart.

    So he didn't help her get to the top as you said. Just got her started. 20 yrs ago.

    I heard there was a thing called the good ole boys club that also allowed people to get ahead by being part of some group.
