Washington Times ^ | 9/11/14 | Doug Ernst

sociologists are worried that a lack of black officers leading its combat troops will have detrimental effect on minorities and lead to fewer black officers in top leadership posts.

America was once color blind, but
undocumented pRes_ _ent Obola added his ‘race war’,
to his biowarfare and DeathCAREplans,
against the American people.

“sociologists are worried that a lack of black officers leading its combat troops ....”

Didn’t know sociologists had combat troops...

I guess in our new nation, this may not be surprising

So is our military a racist institution that gets innocent black men killed by putting them in dangerous combat positions?

or

Is our military a racist institution that won’t let innocent black men in because they will be promoted and might be in charge of some white guy?

I’m having a hard time keeping track of the narrative...

Don’t worry, with all the illegals getting anchor kids here our armies will be 90% brown in no time.

Americans are having fewer children and a single male child would not be drafted.
Latinos especially love large families, so if we have a war with a draft again (which is happening IMO) look for most all of the children collecting on the dole being later taken into a draft.

That will be of course a problem then as well.

It means there is not enough Blk Mafia control in the army...just as other government agencies have become predominately polluted and corrupted.

Why not female officers in charge of infantry? Good place for a lot of them.

Why is it that after the words “too many” the only race that can follow is white?

No problem seeing as how the Constitution has been reduced to toilet paper. Just don’t let Whites or White Hispanics volunteer unless they are gay or transsexuals. That should work out great. Of course keep Homeland Security as the only effective fighting force.

Yet back in 1989 I saw on CNN Crossfire where the left was complaining that there were disproportionately too many opportunities for blacks in the military. On the left were some “civil rights” types and on the right were Alan Keyes and Colonel Fred Cherry USAF (retired). It was the first time I saw Alan Keyes in action.

“...“sociologists are worried ...”

Sort of refutes the whole argument right there...not?

After all, when one wants a leading example of a libarts major which is akin to throwing one’s tuition into the street, sociology would be a good choice.

It doesn’t much matter when they are AA promoted from Colonel of the kitchen to General in charge of Central Command.

That’s the working definition of diverse!
Fewer white men, less Western culture.

Contrast that with the dictionary definition of “diversity”:

the condition of having or being composed of differing elements : variety; especially : the inclusion of different types of people (as people of different races or cultures) in a group or organization

Oh, and what they’re really saying is

“there are too many Christians”

(who won’t follow orders to oppress and kill their fellow citizens)

Remember when that was a deep concern in WWII and how we lost the war because of it?...

...neither does anyone else...

My dad was a career military officer, so I grew up blissfully colorblind-and I married a career military officer. So what is this crap? Either an officer is qualified to lead combat troops or they are not-period...

I was going to comment on the article but was happier to see "fewer" and "less" used correctly.
