    I agree that he should not be allowed to consume alcohol.

    The guys he killed were white at least that was my recollection.

    Symbols and words evolve over time. The word gay in the 19th century and part of the twentieth century meant happy, carefree. Now it is the flag of homosexualism.
    Thete was a Black and white movie called "the day divorcee' " No it was not about a happy lesbian. Seriously word usage and symbols change over time.

    According to one of them, on the day Rittenhouse committed his murders, he had spent the day with members of the Boogaloo Bois. So not really a surprise if he's a racist.

    Just in the last year we've posted pictures of Obama, Clinton, the other Clinton, Biden, and numerous other liberals making that sign. No one stopped using that sign because it was just recently declared to be racist as a joke to see how far people will run with it.

    You have literally zero basis for your opinion. The fact that three armed men attacked him just seems to allude you. The fact he isn't dead seems to be something that you feel is intolerable. That's pretty sad.

    What's intolerable is that he shot 3 men, 2 of them for attempting to disarm him after he already shot somebody...

    Interesting that you're proposing that symbology is static and can't be appropriated. I remember asking students what they thought a box cutter meant on 9/10/2001 versus any date after. The examples of symbolic evolution are literally *everywhere* and tend to evolve as language does. Your contention would of course bleed into language as well?

    He was there for one reason only with his illegal weapon, to cause trouble.

    I just always thought this was like the secret handshake for the elite racist club. Gosh, and aren't these just amazing pics...

    He lives in Antioch, IL, and drove to Kenosha, WI. That's less than 23 miles.

    Well, if ya had to rely on public transportation because the government made cars that could only travel 13 miles on a charge, there would have had to have been a hotel for overnight charging.... or you'd have had to take public transportation, because cars that actually work that are electric will only be for really rich folks....

    No, he shot three men for attacking him. They weren't trying to "disarm" him, they were trying to kill Kyle. One swung a skateboard at his head and the other drew a gun on him and closed in to shoot him. The one-armed guy even told his friend in the hospital afterwards that he wanted to empty the whole magazine into Kyle.

    WTF are you talking about? He's being charged with murder because he traveled 23 miles and then shot 2 people dead. I'm sorry that in conservotopia you're able to just kill anyone for any reason but we still have courts and laws and all that sort of snowflake **** that all good conservatives despise and probably will for some years.

    So what "white supremacists" was he around? That doesn't describe the Proud Boys and I didn't see anyone in hoods in the picture.

    And if there was someone wearing a hood in the picture, it still wouldn't make the OK sign racist. Sorry but that idea is just rank stupidity.

    I don't think anyone is saying it's impossible for symbols to evolve, just that the "OK" sign hasn't yet for most reasonable people, as evidenced by the many dems who have been photographed doing it.

    How do we know he's been "radicalized" and what does that mean in this context anyway?

    Like what do you mean? Are you asking how do we know he's been exposed to far right propaganda and beliefs and has been converted or do you mean something else?

    So? He still shot two people dead after attacking them while armed. They got the better of him and then he had to kill them.
    That doesn't make it self-defense. He assaulted them and was still engaged in the resultant conflict when he killed them. It's like you rob somebody and they pull a gun and you have to shoot them. You don't get off. It's felony murder
