From a database of hate symbols and signs

https://www.adl.org/hate-symbols?cat_id%5B153%5D=153

A common hand gesture that a 4chan trolling campaign claimed in 2017 had been appropriated as a symbol meaning "white power." Used by many on the right--not just extremists--for the purpose of trolling liberals, the symbol eventually came to be used by actual white supremacists as well. Caution must be used in evaluating instances of this symbol's use.

So when used in the context with a known white supremacy group, it’s pretty clear cut

Wait, people take that dumb internet **** seriously? I didn't think anyone outside of their mother's basement actually used the OK symbol for anything but what it actually is.

How do you know he was from a white supremacist group?

white supremacists use it all the time, there are loads of recorded videos of it happening, usually in and around trump

No known motive yet, but the driver has been identified.

Quote:


Dawit Kelete of Seattle drove the car around vehicles that were blocking Interstate 5 and sped into the crowd at about 1:40 a.m., according to a police report released by the Washington State Patrol. Video taken at the scene by protesters showed people shouting “Car! Car!” before fleeing the roadway.

The driver, who was alone in the Jaguar, fled the scene after hitting the protesters, Trooper Chase Van Cleave told The Associated Press. One of the protesters got in a car and chased the driver for about a mile. He was able to stop him by pulling his car in front of the Jaguar, Van Cleave said.

Officials were trying to determine the motive as well as where he got onto the interstate, which had been closed by the state patrol for more than an hour before the women were hit. Mead said they suspect Kelete drove the wrong way on a ramp. Trooper Rick Johnson said the driver went through a barrier that closed the freeway before striking the women.

Troopers did not know whether it was a targeted attack, but impairment was not considered a factor, Mead said.

An unarmed black man was shot to death by police as he was sleeping in his car, on his own driveway, because cops thought he was someone else they were looking for

Putting it in a spoiler.

because its totally normal to sleep in a car on your own driveway?
something seems off about this "story".
and I'd require more information before speaking my opinions as to who is at fault.

true @usersince2005, there is something off about that story


sleeping in your car seems fine by me, so either this man did something wrong (still doesn't justify cops killing him, could've just arrested him) and if the man did nothing wrong, it just seems like ''cold-blooded murder''

Yes let's defend the police shooting an unharmed black man dead when their life clearly wasn't in danger.

Every one who was compliant in the murder need to face the death penalty

people just film it more now, put it on social media's to document evidence themselves, rather than the corrupt law/justice system doing that whom Always protect their own

Police said the officers fired after the man refused to drop a gun and pointed it toward them.


So

So
There was an incident here recently actually where a guy pulled a gun on the armed response unit and started shooting at them after a car chase, they still managed to incapacitate the man without anyone dying. It just seems like the American police are way too shoot to kill/trigger happy.

What do you expect when they have a president who campaigned to get 5 innocent black men the death penalty and to this day has still to apologise

I hope that terrorist is brought to justice and is hit with the full extent of the law because that inevitable white person is not misunderstood or mentally unstable or any other descriptors white people get to excuse their violence,

how bloody dare you.
