You'll like this Joe...
Re: You'll like this Joe...
I think we don't have anywhere near enough clueless white guys whose response whenever black people have their noses rubbed in blatant racism is to insist that it's no big deal and to try to dictate how they should respond.

On the other hand, we do have more than enough green guys here to misrepresent what we've said.

How about racist clothing? When a white person especially a white man wears a hat it is a sign of race hatred. By the wearing of the hat he is saying my skin is different from the skin of black person I need the hat to protect my delicate skin from sun. His attempt to avoid skin cancer is a racist act. Such people should be attack, knocked out and hopefully accidentally killed.
Soon, I’ll post my farewell message. The end is starting to get close. There are many misconceptions about me, and before I go, to live with my ancestors on the steppes, I want to set the record straight.

I hope that Universal had some additional evidence before they fired this guy.
He could have been making an OK sign for some reason; he could have had an itch at the end of his thumb which he was absently scratching.
But if he is routinely photographed with children I doubt it's his first and only time if indeed he is a closet supremacist. Or maybe he has been observed and heard to have made other gestures and remarks which supported that idea.
Absent other evidence I'd like to know - and so will his attorney - why they think that this was anything but an innocent gesture or even some random fleeting position of his hand.
For example, if there are ten pictures of him with kids and three of them are black and on those, and only those, photos he is doing that gesture, then that's damning enough for me.
Lib's post is, as often, asinine.

I'd be surprised if they didn't have more evidence but nowadays you never know.ex-khobar Andy wrote:I hope that Universal had some additional evidence before they fired this guy. .....

Joe is a clueless white guy? I had no idea he was white. (The clueless bit is subjective.) I always picture Joe as black with a white stripe.

Re: You'll like this Joe...
It now appears that several cadets at the Army Navy game - which Trump attended and where he was apparently cheered - ostentatiously displayed the OK / White Power sign. There is a clip here of several examples.
The cadets claim to have been playing the 'circle game.' Now I admit that I am a little shaky on some of the pop culture issues of the day but even the description of the game I have read (form a circle with thumb and forefinger below waist level and punch anyone who looks) doesn't seem to accord with the tape.
Of course all this reminds me how Associate SC Justice Kavanaugh sought to tell us how all his high school allusions (devil's triangle, Renate alumni club, boofing) have innocent origins. One day we will prove that he lied.
If these cadets lie about this then they can get a fucking job. If they are so stupid that they do not know that this gesture has taken on a connotation way beyond the original meaning, they have no place at an elite military academy. I have no problem with the sign being used appropriately in a situation (e.g., scuba diving) where verbal communication is not possible.
