This symbolizing white supremacy is absurd.

However, if mass shooters are using it as a rallying cry in courtroom and such then I’m all for labeling it as such or anything else to deter them bastards from copying each other
 
We are in an all out politically correct assault. I just heard on the radio that a black guy who was parked somewhere too long or somewhere he should not have been, received a ticket from the police. He is now suing the police for racial profiling. Here is the punch line: the policeman was black...

I do believe that there is hope. As much as I somewhat dislike Donald Trump even though I am a Republican, Trump is about to deliver a knockout blow to the liberals, which includes many of the idiots, Me Too, etc. You may be about to see the end of the Democratic party as we know it, and the end of their current Socialist, Communist, and Fascist movements that are trying to destroy the very fabric of this country.

Let me explain this to everyone, it's just like Old Money vs New Money. Back when Obama was president, all the liberals were saving their F's, remember hearing ZFG a million times a day?? So now, they all have a surplus of F's, and they just don't know how to handle it. They're wasting all of them on stupid crap. But don't worry, unlike us Old F's, the New F's never last. They live it up for a few years, and then they end up back in the gutter where they came from. At this rate, they've already got one foot off the curb.

My wife texts me this symbol all the time

And now I have to tell her she is racist?
You sure she isn't just telling you to pass the joint?
 
You can thank all of the snowflake liberals

Obviously it depends on how the sign is used- like occasionally "gay" can still mean festive.

But as for the sophomoric liberal snowflake reference-

Publicly state the majority of Trump supporters fall on the wrong side of the bell curve, state the fact that all anthopogenic climate change deniers are intellectually lazy, willfully misinformed or disingenuous, suggest that "trickle down" economics was a sucker punch, point out that anyone who "needs" a semi-automatic weapon is likely too unstable to own one or that religious organizations need to politically sit down and shut up as Jefferson insisted- and just watch the drifts pile up on the other side of the aisle.
 
Actually, the opposite is true, but whatever.

You’ve both COMPLETELY missed the point of my post. Let me help you. The liberals and snowflakes have become so PC in the past several years that nearly anything and everything is offensive resulting in bans of this or that.

How long until giving someone the finger is so offensive that it’s labeled racist or banned?

It's a satanic hand sign means 666 when displayed with the right hand or at the forehead. Also used by the BSA to symbolize A Ok.
 
Next time I’m road raging I’ll try that instead of the middle finger and report back.

I don't disagree with much of what you said, but you're missing the very obvious flipside of that coin. Historically speaking it hasn't been left leaning people who wanted to ban things they found offensive. This is a relatively new fascism we're seeing from the left.
 
Remember the backlash for the brunette hottie sitting behind Kavanaugh during his confirmation. They made this a story then too.

But I did find this.

Don't blame liberals for this one. The white nationalists adopted this as their symbol.

Did they submit a bill to adopt this into their charter?
Do they even have a charter?
How does a marginalized group "adopting" a simple gesture obligate us all?
How are we supposed to know about this is we don't get the "white supremacist newsletter?
Is there a copyright?
Is there a patent?
Is it like when the gays adopted prismatic light (the rainbow) into being their symbol?
Is this like Ohio State trying to patent "THE"?

The whole thing confuses me.
