Wherein Archy pretends we can't use context or common sense to understand language and communication. Bonus points for moving the goalposts on what Rittenhouse has been up to.

Wherein RedDenver pretends everything is racist. Bonus Points to Twitter Rose for being outrageously stupid for playing the race card when it’s not warranted unless he can prove otherwise.

Wrong again Archy. Your point might carry some weight if you were able to tell the difference between Rose and the prosecutors. It's even shown in the article link:
"Prosecutors say 18-year-old flashed 'white power' signs while posing for photos at bar following his arraignment"

Kenosha County prosecutors are asking a judge to modify Kyle Rittenhouse's bond.
The 18-year-old is free on $2 million cash bond, awaiting trial charged with killing two protesters in the aftermath of the Jacob Blake police shooting. In a motion filed Wednesday, prosecutors said when Rittenhouse went to a Mount Pleasant bar after his arraignment on Jan. 5, he flashed "white power" signs while posing for photos, and was serenaded with the Proud Boys' anthem.
Rittenhouse was seen in bar surveillance video wearing a T-shirt with the words "Free as F---."
"Among other things, prosecutors want his bond modified so he's restricted from associating with known militia members or members of white supremacist organizations, saying such an association could intimidate potential witnesses.
The prosecutors also want Rittenhouse to be prohibited from possessing or consuming alcohol or being present in bars and taverns. A court filing said 90 minutes after his arraignment on Jan. 5, he went with his mother to Pudgy's Pub.
It also said Rittenhouse consumed three beers at the bar in 90 minutes.
Prosecutors said his use of the symbols could intimidate witnesses.
Rittenhouse's defense attorney filed a response to the prosecutor's motion saying he did not object to any of the bond modifications.

Is the kid stupid for going to a bar while out on a bail? Yes
Is kid stupid for drinking while on bail? Yes
is kid racist for wearing shirt that says “free as fu$&”. No. Stupid while awaiting trial? Yes
Is kid racist for doing “ok” with his hands? Not unless you can show me his past behavior or social media is racist. If that is shown, then Twitter Rose has an actual point.

You unsurprisingly left out this part:
Rittenhouse went to a Mount Pleasant bar after his arraignment on Jan. 5, he flashed "white power" signs while posing for photos, and was serenaded with the Proud Boys' anthem.
Did he ask for that? Did he request it? Again, if you want to point to past racist behavior I would look and listen. Until then it’s ignorant ranting.

Man, this poor kid definitely deserves the benefit of the doubt.
This kid took a gun across state lines to a protest against racism and killed some people, has been praised by the likes of Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson, and MyPillow guy, has been hailed as a hero by the Proud Boys, and goes to a bar (at age 18) where he gleefully flashes a sign that has become well known as a White Power gesture in the last couple of years while the Proud Boys' anthem is sung to him. I'm sure it was all a coincidence and he was just playing the circle game! Leave the kid alone!

Yep, still waiting for the back history of racism by the kid. Maybe it’s there and people are too lazy to prove their assertion? Or maybe he just decided to do the racism gig last week? Or maybe he isn’t racist?

He's 17. What kind of digging do you expect people to do in the life of a minor? :blink:

I didn’t make the claim. Isn’t you who says burden is on the one who makes the claim?Then knock yourself out digging into them.
