Of all the crap that comes up these days, this might be the dumbest.
1. This hand gesture is and has been one of the most widely used forms of hand communication for many many years. Thumbs up and middle finger are only ones I can think of used more.
2. It would be the interesting to find the origin of this BS. I bet it is someone who graduated with a worthless college degree that now claims to be a journalist.
3. It's used for various things all over every race. Every picture from Adidas sponsored 7v7 or basketball teams somebody is using the gesture.

Universal should call it stupid and then proceed with trying to break the lawyers that took this on.

To add to the story, as I read the Complaint here is the caption

J.Z., a minor, by and through her natural
parents and next friends, TIFFINEY and
RICHARD ZINGER; TIFFINEY and RICHARD
ZINGER, individually; H.R., a minor, by and
through her natural parents and next friends,
GEISY MORENO and JOEL RODRIGUEZ;
and GEISY MORENO and JOEL
RODRIGUEZ, individually,
Plaintiffs,
VS.
UNIVERSAL CITY DEVELOPMENT
PARTNERS, LTD., a Florida for-Profit Limited
Partnership, d/b/a UNIVERSAL ORLANDO
and d/b/a UNIVERSAL STUDIOS

The judge is Jeffrey Aston, whom you may recall, prosecuted and lost the Casey Anthony case.

The complaint is 87 pages and I'm not reading it all.

The lawfirm is McLUSKEY, McDONALD & HUGHES, P.A.
THE BARRISTER BUILDING • 8821 S.W. 69TH COURT • MIAMI, FLORIDA 33156 TELEPHONE (305) 670-2020 • FACSIMILE (305) 662-6164 • www.mmlawmiami.com if anyone feels like doxxing these people.

No surprise it is a miami law firm as they present some of the most bs imaginable. If Morgan and Morgan didnt touch it...you know its bs.

ETA

Par 104 states "As an employer of costumed characters who interact with children at its amusement properties, Universal Orlando supervised the man dressed as Gru and who showed the White-Power hate symbol in a photo with H.R., including placing the White Power symbol by the head of H.R.

Did I miss when this became the universal symbol for white power?

And to think, the whole notion that OKAY sign was a symbol for white power was a due to some idiot leftist being trolled.

Some people will believe anything.

It is amazing to me how we allow these people's stupidity to clog up our court system and affect our lives.

It's cultural appropriation of one of the hand signs that has been well established for spelling words for sign language.

How dare the courts take away the signed language of the deaf?

So like a white peoples only game, racist.


As it turns out, yeah mostly. Black guys at my high school at the time had ZERO interest in playing baseball. The reason given by most was they had no interest in having a ball thrown at them that hard! Always used to make us laugh... We did have an underclassmen black guy play with us my senior year in '88 but he did not play legion ball that summer, and this was mostly a legion thing as I recall. Spent more time together in the summer than we did in the Spring and were always looking to kill time.

Oh and later rendition added if the other person poked his finger in the hole then the punch would go back to whom threw the sign.


Yup...for got that part. That was in there too, though rarely utilized.

I though it was guys fricking around on 4Chan who literally started it as a hoax to see if idiots would run with it. Completely made up out of whole cloth as bait to see who was dumb enough to buy it.

Little did they know, not only would idiots pick it up and run with it, but since they control virtually all of information, they somehow made it "real" in that even though they KNOW it was a hoax, it's now useful to tar people with who are doubling down with it as a joke.

These are the type of people that intentionally go out and find bakers that won’t bake a gay wedding cake. Scumbags.

Didn’t the OK sign being racist just start as an internet troll? God these people are so stupid


Yeah, 4Chan made it up if they could get idiots to believe it’s a white supremacist sign and they bought it.

Illuminati do have hand signals.
The OK sign is an ok sign and also an illuminati signal.

Lets assume for a second that this Disney character was intentionally making a racist white power hand signal. If true under what forking grounds does that warrant a law suit???

Is it now illegal to make signals that others don't like???

Miami Law Firm .....Better get an Orlando Attorney in that group to lead these idiots down the path.

Guarantee Universal will respond something like this ...

We sued Disney for seven million dollars. A pre trial meeting was arranged. The General Contractor at one end of the table with his Attorney. We are the other end, two supervisors, one Orlando Attorney and our Great Britain Attorney. Disney walks in with twelve Attorneys. Disney was confident because one of their Junior Attorneys screwed up. The Junior Attorney had done the background study on Hanson Limited using a D&B report in the US. After the Disney offer was rejected ....The Junior Attorney pops off "You aren't big enough to take us on." Hanson Attorney responds "What gives you that impression?" "I pulled your D&B" "Where" "In the US." "Son, we are a Great Britain firm. I encourage you to check again." Kid returns white as a sheet. The D&B is passed up to the center of the table .....You can feel the tension as each Attorney realizes they pulled the tail on the Wrong Tiger. Hanson was ten times the size of Disney and Hanson had over ten billion in cash looking to buy Corporations. It was too bad that Hanson was not interested in entertainment firms ....Disney broke for lunch and returned with three attorneys ......Disney wrote the check for 7 million.

Universal will be armed and ready to grind two mid income families into dust ....We will never hear of the agreement and the families will be lucky to lunch after the fees have been removed. But the Partners will have a Mercedes payment in their checks at the end of the year.

That is a great story! I doubt that Universal provides any offer of payment given the backstory and acceptance of the signal

Of course, the guy could be a racist but how do you ever find that out?
