    Laura Ingraham gets called out for appearing to make a Nazi salute at Republican Nati

    http://www.nydailynews.com/news/poli...icle-1.2719389

    Laura Ingraham, conservative radio host and political commentator, after serving up a cold dish of criticism against Hillary Clinton and men in skinny jeans, saluted her way off the Republican National Convention stage.
    Whether it was a Nazi salute or a wave is unclear, but with all the Adolf Hitler comparisons to Donald Trump over the last year, the convention probably wasn’t the best place to make such a similar gesture.
    Ingraham would not be the first of the billionaire’s supporters to make the infamous Nazi gesture, as Trump fanatics have yelled “Heil Donald Trump” and “Sieg Heil” at the Republican nominee’s rallies.

    Welp, nothing symbolic about that I'm sure.
    They always told me I would miss my family... but I never miss from close range.

    Looks like a carefully chosen frame from a wave. I'd need to see video of it.

    Pretty much this, it's extremely easy to make something innocent like a quick wave towards the audience look like a Nazi salute from the proper angle. People on the internet love to do this stuff...

    Looks to me more like a wave that accidentally looks like a nazi salute.

    Democrats and liberals are getting more desperate everyday, when they see this election slipping away because their candidate Hillary Clinton is so fucking vile.

    Yeah, that's not a Nazi salute. Watch the Left try to convince people that it is...

    Desperate. Really desperate. There are far easier and more worthwhile gaffs to talk about.

    You believe Swiftboat is real and tried to convince people, with zero evidance. You are projecting...

    Someone makes a comment/gesture, someone else claims it means something quite unintended ... who is the one that should be criticised?

    It's a wave. Unless people think Penn Jillette is also a Nazi. (at 0:29)

    Yeah that one works. It wasn't there when I commented.

    After seeing the video, it's a bit odd that she goes straight out with the hand to the nazi-type salute first before turning it into a wave. That said, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt that it's not an intentional nazi type salute.
