That's neat. I'll be holding them to the standards of United States Army officers, not ghetto hood rats. But go ahead with your bigotry of low expectations. 


You lost all credibility with that ghetto hood rat statement. Its hard to hide your true colors in these kind of threads.

Should we burn the US flag since its a symbol used by terrorist organizations?

Of course.

They got away with it because they're a twofer. Female minorities that is.

I swear to fricking god we have some PC pussies running West Point and the pentagon.

The fact that the term "Black Power" and the symbol has no negative connotations is basically because it wasn't used to segregate not demean any person non black.

When did this become fact, or did somebody tell you it's a fact and you believed them

It was a self-affirmation tool used at a time when the very idea of being black was demeaned

Currently, (specifically) whites do not have any advantage given to them via the government, so I would say whites are demeaned yet if they show pride they are racist.

"White Power" is a slogan used by terrorist groups. Groups that held the belief that being white meant lording power over all.

White power is a term used by terrorist groups, so is allah akbar and the american flag, you shouldn't judge an entire group of people by the crazies that try and relate

All of this.

Is ridiculous

Geez man, they said it wasn't a pre-planned political statement. The key word being political not pre-planned. Obviously the photo and fist raising was preplanned.

I feel like some of you take moron pills.


And it's a political statement. Stop with the semantics.

They get away with this bullshite simply because they're black women. It's not rocket science. The only good thing about this is that these dipshits will likely end up in rear echelon roles that won't get people killed due to their incompetence and lack of reasonable judgement.

Could easily argue it's more of a societal message than strictly an overt political one.

Depends how narrow or broad you want to define political. And I'd say that if the military starts defining political messages rather broadly then there'd be a risky precedent set. And it could backfire on many conservative soldiers too.

No I didn't. Ghetto hood rat is actually a thing. It's not racist to admit that they exist. I'm the one who isn't racist because I hold them to a higher standard than others in this thread who are saying "Well at least they aren't standing in line with at Walmart with their EBT cards."

Everybody run. A Group of graduating black female cadets raise their fist in solidarity after completing training at an institution that historically did not allow many females, much less black females Get your bunkers and shelters. The attack is about to happen

Nonody is saying that. Don't make up things. We are simply saying they should be disciplined

I don't care what they do, what I do care about is if the same thing happened by white girls giving the the "white power" salute they would be burned. It's a hypocrisy and you have yet to admit it.

Here we go with the normal woe is me on the OT the poor conservative white male. Black people have it sooo good they can get away with things I can't.

And why are they incompetent dipshits? Because of one picture? Im sure being women or black has nothing to do with your assessment.

So several black women graduated from a place that historically many blacks have not been accepted. And with a raised fist they show soidarity and referece the past and present struggle of civil rights. Now a bunch of redneck mouth breathers have their panties in a bunch.


What part of political statements in uniform are not allowed do you not understand?

Military officers have less rights than civilians by design.



If you think there's nothing wrong with group pics with political statements, you want to see if a bunch of white guys trying out the Nazi salute can get away with that?

I don't think it is a huge deal. I also don't think the cadets meant any ill will

Just don't treat me like an idiot or hide in fear is what I want from West Point

A simple statement saying there will be discipline for the cadets because they used poor judgement based on the fact they will be expected to lead a diverse group of soliders and the US army is not a group that recognizes race would have been great for me

But to make the statement the Colonel did is insulting to me and the institution.

Yes, I did. What have those dipshits done in the past 30 years? It's not the klan of 1915.

People make them out to be this boogeyman when, in reality, they're a castrated group of retards that have harmed less people in the last 40 years than vending machines have.
