The Patriots Drafted A Kicker With A Racist 'Three Percenter' Tattoo, Which Is 100 Percent Shameful

The tattoo acts as a symbol of solidarity for the group whose core belief is to honor the misinformation that only three percent of colonists rose up against the British and who have been closely tied to white supremacy and racism.

The Patriots Drafted A Kicker With A Racist 'Three Percenter' Tattoo, Which Is 100 Percent Shameful

The New England Patriots selected Justin Rohrwasser in the fifth round of the NFL draft. After his selection, Rohrwasser, a kicker out of Marshall, came under fire for sporting a "Three Percenters" tattoo.

The tattoo is the logo for an American far-right militia movement. According to TMZ, Rohrwasser now believes that the tattoo is "shameful" and will have it removed. The group's name comes from the false statement only three percent of colonists rose up against British rule during the American Revolution. The Three Percenters have also been closely tied to white supremacy and racism.

While the group claims they are not a militia or anti-government, their associations with white supremacy and racism are well documented, with the group's ties to the Charlottesville riots, a foiled bombing, and white supremacy in general.
