What an un-American low life. A disgrace to the Rangers. Worked for the same dope bank as Comey...HSBC.

we must come together and have some sort of open discussion about race
But that's just it, you can't have an open discussion with liberals. If you dissagree with them you are fired, doxed and/or destroyed in any way possible. These people are fanatics and don't belong in America.

Basically, the secretary of the Army is assisting a domestic communist insurgency.

Relocating the Confederate flag to museums is one thing, but to rename long-established bases is rather stupid. I suspect 99% of the population could not explain who Benning was and 99% would not care. It is Fort Benning.

Bigger question is Does President Trump support this kind of BS? And if not, why has he not reigned in or replaced his leadership staff? Seems from recent reports that he needs to replace most of his military leadership.

Maybe the pentagon is in open rebellion, and Trump is just trying to prevent the final solution.

Lost in all of this is how much a name change of an installation could cost. It just doesn’t only involve changing a few signs at a cost of several thousand dollars. Just changing a military installation with any type of airfield would cost millions in charts and maps alone.

Where does President Trump pick these losers from anyways?
Out of all the great highly accomplished conservatives out there, why does he keep picking these idiots every single time?

An open discussion about race. Like all the other open discussions about race we’ve had for decades now. snore

This may be unpopular on this forum, but I wouldn’t lose a moment off sleep if this happened. Robert E. Lee made significant efforts to restore the union after the civil war but he also fought in a civil war on the losing side to preserve slaveholding as a right to be preserved by governments. Many of his generals were either worthless in battle (Bragg) or eager slaveholders (Benning). This ain’t the hill I’m dying on.

I know! They should name them after famous criminals! Like Fort Dillinger or DB Cooper Air Force Base. Better yet, we can name them after famous Marxist revolutionaries, like Fort Che or Camp Ayers. That will make the BLM happy!

Well, at least then the libs will be happy and STFU. It’ll be nice to never hear from them again about racism.
