He got gypped.
Do Indians drink? They worship cows and put reed dots on their heads...??
People are offended by the slightest crap today.
“drunker than 10,000 Indians”

Was that dots-Indians or feathers-Indians? Just what protected class did he piss off?
I’m guessing feathers-Indians.
The Air Force must have an oversupply of good generals for this one lose his command over a thing like this. At least he’s been made an example for the rest.
Did they send him off base in a Paddy Wagon?
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
We are undergoing a Soviet-style ideological purge of the military.
Those left will have no problem shooting you.
As I was winding down my career in the USAF, it was becoming policy that if one knew of “aberrant” behavior and didn’t report it, they were just as guilty.
It has created a system of snitches for some of the most minor errors in judgement without a chance at redemption.
Ever since I started in the USAF (still serving) in 1985 the USAF has moved decidedly to the left, has been taken over by liberal progressive lawyers, and is far worse than the one-mistake air force of General McPeak. To lose a command over such a thing is stunning and I would submit that every liberal is guilty of far worse. But, when you run the USAF like you do the Star Trek Enterprise (Next Generation) Where they are paralyzed until the ask for “counsel” then you get what you get today...a highly reactionary force that has a perpetual identity crisis and cant make a solid leadership decision without calling for a confab so as to all wring their hands together and suffer death by consensus.
Oh, nooooooo!
The general said a no-no, so let’s fire him and lose his experienced service forever.
America continues its childish, downward PC spiral.
It’s a fact most American Indians genetically lack an enzyme that metabolizes alcohol. Ergo, they get drunk rapidly and for a longer period of time.
Had an Indian sailor/alcoholic on my last ship. He had been just about permanently restricted aboard because of his drinking, but he managed to have liquor smuggled to him. And it’s true, he would go on the warpath, racing & whooping around the decks. Sad, but true.
Our friends and foes are watching the U.S. Military deteriorate.
Spit.
There are no more private conversations and no private correspondence anymore. Everything said is now grist for somebody's mill. "To disagree with" now means "to be offended by". Offending someone is now the sin which can never be forgiven. This man is a bit to old too have come up in that environment. But the younger generation understands it. Imagine a world where everyone talks endlessly without ever saying anything, the way politicians do now. It's about 10 years away.
drunker than 10,000 Kennedys.
The horror! Damn I remember when our military leadership wasn’t controlled by a bunch of pansies with their panties in twist when anything other than Christianity was offended. We need people leading that are warriors not..........community organisers.
What would be acceptable? "Drunker than Chelsea Clinton"? "Drunker than the Big Three at Yalta"? "Drunker than college students on spring break in Florida"?
Indians have the highest rate of alcoholism of any ethnic group. Why is this offensive?
