First thought that crossed my mind when I heard it.

[Impala64ssa]

For those who protest NFL players for taking a knee during the national anthem, for those who consider the players to be unpatriotic for their behavior, now is a good time, whether this instance is true or not, to condemn racism and thank, regardless of their race, gender, or religion, all those who serve this great nation.
WTH does the NFL situation have to do with it? More guilt driven virtue signalling. "whether this instance is true or not," Now why do you suppose he threw that remark in to this statement, HMMMM?

[toldyou]

Yep!

I’m calling it now: fake/ bad poorly thought out prank.

If it's a poorly thought out prank then I'd rather not have idiots like that in the Air Force and they should be ejected. If this is a hoax then I'd rather not have idiots like that in the Air Force either and they should be ejected as well.

I would think they had surveillance cameras in the area, but perhaps not, since the perp would know that.

The left sees the Constitution as an irrelevant piece of paper. If we cannot agree on the very fundamentals, then the concepts that are derived from them will never converge.

So you're saying this is Constitutionally protected free speech?

[DoodleDawg]

Lt Gen Silveria is a fool.

Why?

[Darksheare]

Exactly.

[petitfour]

That garbage has no place anywhere in this country! For real or hoax.

[trisham]

Because he gave credence to something that he didn’t vet.

[sparklite2]

Good lord. You could look into a bowl of alphabet soup and read a novel out of it. Look at what I excerpted. It shows to what I am replying.

“Conservative” talk show host Michael Medved ran with the story and praised the superintendent’s speech. I would not have run with it until it was shown not to be a false-flag deed or a prank.

[bigdaddy45]

It’s called being a leader. That’s what leaders do.

[SandRat]

Ikey hadn’t learned yrt from a mean SGT yet, that the Only Coloor in the USAF is BLUE!!!!

[Gritty]

I can understand the moral outrage.

Wait a second. Isn't Gen. Silveria's immediate subordinate (the Commandant of Cadets, Brig. Gen. Kristin Goodwin, USAFA Class of '93) a lesbian woman married to another lesbian woman (her "wife") and they have 2 kids (not their own, obviously) and they are living openly together in Base quarters?

I'm not confused about the moral outrage on the one hand - but I am confused about the lack of moral outrage on the other. It appears writing the "n" word is more of a moral outrage than an open, perverted sexual relationships among the very high ranking person who is supposed to be the military caretaker and example to all cadets in the Wing.

General Silveria might better get off his high horse and think of just what constitutes a "moral outrage" in all cases - not just the most recently politically correct one.

General George Washington certainly would not be confused by all this moral jiu-jitsu and high dudgeonry. My guess is he would roundly condemn both.

[MAGA2017]

You can’t assume this was by actual racist who happens to be white. Quite probable this was done either by BLM-type or someone with an issue with the AF.

[madprof98]

When it is proven to be a hoax you will cuddle the little student to your breast and mummer sweet nothings to them while condemning the rest of us for not understanding how they were just trying to bring attention to the problem.

[Lord Casselreagh]

Beautiful post. Par four is fabulous.

[Tallguy]

“The left sees the Constitution as an irrelevant piece of paper. If we cannot agree on the very fundamentals, then the concepts that are derived from them will never converge.”

Lt Gen Jay Silveria’s next ‘star’ is in the balance. So he’s going to turn the place upside down.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

I am not sure if I am becoming a cynic or just more realistic.

But the pleasant surprises are becoming fewer and fewer.
