I'm certain, if you follow the news, there's a kerfuffle regarding one of our servicemen at the Army-Navy football game supposedly flashing the newest 'racial sign'. Putting the thumb to forefinger with the other three digits extend somehow has become a racial signal.
I had written on this a year or so ago and how silly it is. At the time the UK Daily Mail showed a kid from Moeller H.S. in Cincinnati flashing the gesture after making a 3 point shot. I posted a pic of an NBA player doing the same. Today, watching games you'll see players make the gesture with both hands then put said hands up to their eyes as though they were masks. The bastards!
Only very troubled people would come up with the nonsense that whatever we do is racist. I have no doubt that Waters unknowingly made the gesture. I'm certain she was trying to make a point. Except, turnabout is fair play and worth a good laugh exposing stupidity at its height.
