I wonder if we can get them all to commit suicide to draw attention to mental health issues?!?!

Yep. And our moronic Superintendant, Gen Silveira, immediately believed them and of course intimated a white cadet did it. What an ass wipe. Should be relieved of command for gross incompetence, reverse discrimination and all around poor judgment.

Student’s name was not released. I would have leaked it.

If the last few major "hate Crimes" were hoaxes?

Does that mean Hate Crimes are no longer an issue?

I’m still waiting for the general to apologize to the academy and to the Air Force for his insinuation of who was responsible. But, I won’t hold my breath.

That University would be Kansas State. And now we were informed by the administrators that there is going to be a Unity walk and KSUnite to commit to diversity, inclusion and equity from 1 - 3 pm Tuesday, Nov 14. All classes and offices will be closed during that time.

Sheesh....

It sure fooled the gullible social justice Superintendent of the Academy. Of course he wanted desperately to believe.

Yes, he wanted to believe some white guy did it. I saw the interview. It took all his strength, to keep from saying, all the white students are at fault, but you know he wanted to. Probably a Hillary/Obama supporter.
Now, my next question is, will they bid that student farewell? If it was a white dude they would.

The commander needs to provide an apology to everyone for concluding guilt and chastising everyone.

The USAF has changed so much since I was in it. I think, with the PC that is running rampant, I would not do it again, unless PC changes a lot. I suppose it did not become a haven of PC social experiments overnight. It might not become non PC overnight either.

The announcement Tuesday was a jarring turn in an episode that prompted the academy's superintendent to make a widely viewed speech warning that racists were not welcome at the school.

What are the odds they actually expel the liar? They need to start charging them.

The Air Force Academy says racial slurs posted outside “the dorm rooms of five black students were written by one of those students. The announcement Tuesday was a jarring turn...”

Not jarring at all, I’d be shocked if it wasn’t.

So is the 3 star L.I.F.E.R. who stood 5000 cadets at attention and told them to accept diversity or “get out” going to apologize to them?

It started under Clinton. I remember having to go to all sorts of Social Actions training. This was mid 90’s. I was out by ‘98 but it has gotten much worse. The military has had to endure 16 out of 24 years with Democrats running the show, and Bush wasn’t much better. We’re really screwed all around in this country.

The superintendent needs to make another speech.

It’s not a “jarring turn.” We all knew that would turn out to be the case.

Yes, he needs to call the entire Cadet Wing together, express his outrage and denounce divisive hoaxes and fraudulent attempts to achieve victim status. Will he do that as he did several months ago to denounce the (non-existent) racists who were posting racist graffiti? Of course not ... it wouldn’t serve his social justice warrior objectives.

Lt. Gen Jay Silveria is a wimpy social justice warrior and has become a disgrace IMHO.

I would not assume he was fooled. He had to do been seen as doing something though. His speech might even get him promoted. For him, its a win/win.
