I KNEW IT! It stunk from the get-go. I don’t blame the commandant for saying the things he did. But he should have addressed and condemned the possibilty of a hoax scenario with the same fervor.

Now the question is, Will they kick this guy out of the Academy for doing this, or not? To me, this is not a prank, it’s a racist act in and of itself.

Chris Plante discussed this yesterday, and the authorities in charge, either the military or a school or a police officer or a judge, actually encourage this behavior through failure to adequately prosecute fake “hate crimes”.

Anyone with an ounce of common sense could have seen this coming five seconds after the story broke, except that is, our SJW Superintendent. Apparently, Gen Silveria doesnt understand what the “culture of dignity and respect” that he preaches about looks like, and there should be no room for him at USAFA. He used his entire cadet wing to grandstand for his own publicity, accolades and YouTube moment, while basically calling 4000 cadets racists.

He knew full well that at most this was an isolated incident and more probably that it would turn out as anyone with an ounce of common sense could have guessed. A simple “we’ll do a full investigation and take swift and apprpropriate action if necessary” would have sufficed. Gen. Silveira is a disgrace and should be relieved of command for a variety of reasons, none of which will happen.

Remove that commandant. He is unfit. To jump to conclusions without waiting for the investigation shows he has no business there.

This story will make a tenth the news of the original story, thus the initial charge of racism white guilting will mostly stand.

Mission accomplished.

And the superintendent was so hoping and praying the graffiti was true. Sorry General, PC always seems to melt away when the lights are turned on.

Although this posturing, pompous general is a hero to the mainstream media and progressive leftists throughout the country he is clearly a DISGRACE to our nation. It’s pretty clear to me why this VIRTUE SIGNALLING pompousity was given his 1st, 2nd and 3rd star by Barack Obama.

Will he now assemble the entirety of the Academy’s Cadet Wing, have them stand at attention while he shouts that HOAXES meant to establish false VICTIMHOOD and divide the community are UNACCEPTABLE? His silence is overwhelming...and telling.

Despite the hoax, Silveria said Tuesday he stood by his speech.

Fake, but accurate. Or in this case, don't let a good Trump-bashing go to waste, even if the hate crime is a hoax.

I thought he was an AFA prep student. I don’t know about the AF but in the Army the West Point prep school are usually enlisted soldiers. So did this AFA prep student go back into the enlisted ranks? If he did he should have gotten at least a letter of reprimand or an Article 15.
