Jphn - I believe you are correct!

Best,
Tom

Its a peace sign

Peace?
That's with the palm facing the viewer...this way round its 'f### you'.. or as myth may have it the sign the Welsh longbowmen gave the French before Agincourt..as those two fingers are used to draw the bow...as a consequence they were removed when aforementioned longbow men were captured...

Common guys there is a fundamental difference in meaning...

Wrong, one on left. must everything be explained to you?

The pictures have been posted before, along with the boyfriend, Bristol and the gun one. Not sure if there was a bottle in that one, but they both looked a little stoned if I recall correctly.

There are many more drinking photos and I think a video of pot smoking floating around too.

anybody seen the photos of joe biden's daughter do'in lines?

or the one of his son being a scummy lobbyist?

or should we just go look into the circumstances of barack obama's birth again?

You're "sort of" correct. The Welsh/French "F.U." sign is with the fingers held in the same position (vertically) as the traditional "flipping the bird" sign. Holding your fingers sideways, as in the above photo, is "peace out", a variant mimicking gang signs. It's a "gangsta" thing...most here wouldn't understand.

Wrong forum. needs to be moved to the poltical forum so I can tell Kach what I think about him and his posts.

what is the big deal? it is the internet that made these images a big deal. kids are stupid. i bet there are dozens of photos of me and my friends in that exact pose. some cheap lame alchohol, red eyeballs, stupid smile, and even the dumb hand gestures. i am old enough to have my images on film.

kids drink booze. surprised?

now the jailbait on the right is much cuter.

yeah, there are other pics of kids doing that, but are the parents of those kids politicians running for office, who trot out the kids in public to use them as marketing tools to try to win elections?

when you make your kids (esp. when they are adult or near adult) public figures, they are going to be treated as public figures. that includes criticism, and pointing out perceived hypocricies.

The whole family is into gang signs.:D

All that drinking, dope smoking, snorting cocaine, snorting and smoking OxyContin would have absolutely no effect on a developing fetus, or so I have been told in this forum.

It certainly isn't French....
I see 'gangstas' have yet again made something 'bad' mean 'good'.. thankfully Steve McQ made no mistake...

As for the kid... well we were all young, dumb and full of ###...

He was addressing a French driver...

<title></title>This gesture is English in origin. Hundreds of years ago when the French and English were at war, the French would cut off the fingers of the English bowmen when captured so they couldn't use their bows anymore. The English bowmen would therefore taunt the French across enemy lines by using this particular gesture."

That's ASL for "I love you." :D

The one on the left in the OP is definitely not Bristol Palin.

Different eyes, eyebrows, and chin. And the nose isn't even the same.

Let me explain something to you; you shouldn't believe something just because you found a photo some dude posted on some blog somewhere.

Actually, minus some weight, and with her head angled the same in both pictures (angle and weight can make a big difference), I think it is the same girl.

Two more that are also not BP from sites you linked:

It's not. It's the girl in the two photos in my post just above this one.

Look at the chin and the nose, but especially the eyes and eyebrows.

I guess it doesn't really make a differenc who they are. They are all easy to look at.

Best,
Tom

I will never vote for Bristol Palin after seeing those shocking photos.
