Someone offered up the alternative:
Weed
Dead (the face has Xs for eyes)
4 points on a cross
0 Because if a skull can mean ‘3’ it can mean 0 too?
WD40
But either way, if this guy doesn’t get a hearing, then how can any of us be assured we could also get a hearing? Maybe he gets deported, maybe he’s problematic, but we have to be giving people hearings.
The photo is stupid as hell, but saying they’re claiming the obviously added text ‘M S 1 3’ is what was actually tattooed on his hand is intentionally disingenuous.
It’s obviously an annotation to show what they think the symbols that are tattooed on those fingers mean.
Argue about the symbols and their meaning all you want; but please stop bringing up the added typeface like it has any sort of useful meaning in these conversations. It’s literally just subtitles.
The whole thing absolutely ridiculous; regardless of their meaning, it’s an incredibly flimsy reason to link him to gang activities and suspend due process.
I’m just annoyed at all the people and various news articles failing to talk about that and instead scream things like “Internet Sleuths determine image was photoshopped!!!” and go on about how the font means its fake, because somebody clearly opened it in MS Paint and added some shitty annotations before having Trump pose with the printout
The additions to the image were made without context. If they meant subtitles as an interpretation of what they meant, they should say so. Otherwise it is unclear.
Why argue about the symbols? The more important point is violating human rights by a lack of due process. He is innocent until proven guilty and there’s no legal value in posting a photo online
Their evidence: a photoshopped image with Calibri typeface on his knuckles. It’s like they weren’t even trying.
They claim that the various tattoos he had, like that skull and shit, are all various symbols that denote MS13.
Never mind that one of the MOST KNOWN THINGS about MS-13 is that they’re famous for tattooing EXACTLY THAT across their entire bodies, flamboyantly.
i think i missed which sources they got these symbol meanings from.
Yeah, never explained.

They sits on their sources.
No, they’ve already showed their asses.
