This is so insane. To top it all off, this was another prank on lefties, put out there by the same group (4Chan, I think) that came up with Pepe the frog. A supposedly Nazi frog and the OK sign... but the left fell for it. The slightly twisted pranksters created both of these in order to fool lefties into thinking these things represent some sort of secret code signals for white supremacists. Now the prank has taken on a life of its own and is causing people to be fired for nothing.

When is this witch hunt going to stop?

He should sue 4chan for turning it into a phony “white power” symbol.

Just saying, is Cafferty, actually a Mexican name?

Maybe half-Mexican?

Yet the black supremacist group is free to roam, burn buildings, loot and harm police, hold their fists up in the air, kneel instead of stand in patriotic awe of our flag in honor of our great country.

Dear Father in Heaven,
Please bring believers to our knees in prayer for America and for You O God to reach hearts and help people to see the truth. Because You said, “The truth will set you free.”

According to the Anti-Defamation League, the gesture — made by forming a circle with the thumb and index finger, and extending and separating the other three fingers — has been used in recent years by white supremacists to form the letters W and P, but has also long been used as a sign signifying “OK” or approval. Therefore it shouldn't be assumed to be a white supremacy symbol unless there is other evidence to support those claims, according to the ADL. …
This is the pile of misinformation that NBC (from last week) keeps putting out, citing the ADL but no mention of 4chan.

What is this White Power sign I’ve been hearing about for the last year?

I had not heard about this for the previous 50. Obviously, it’s something the Left has made up recently about us.

Isn’t a raised fist a black power sign?

Excuse me, But I have been white fore a long time and I never knew we had a sign. This is preposterous!

Peace sign, Victory sign, Hook-um Horn sign, the Bird sign, Black Power salute sign, OK sign, Boy Scout sign, Crazy in the Head sign, God is number One sign, I don't think any fingers are left for a white power sign.

This is ridiculous! This hand gesture is innocuous in North America.

But I wouldn’t mind if progressives and the idiots at the San Diego utility company gave this hand gesture the Brazilian interpretation.

The OK sign is just the OK sign. Get a grip people.
