Where were those braying about the flag code when this occurred?

This is the speech we wish our president could give.
This is true leadership, and true patriotism.

So now that sexual assault is allegedly under control, they're going after the racists. Good for them! But then maybe that's just an Air Force thing too. No idea. No offense to The Air Force, it's just not something that was an issue in Annapolis or that I saw in The Fleet.
The President used his patriotism and leadership to deliver a fantastic call to action toward the unpatriotic disrespectful, and overpaid, reflecting the exact reason why we elected him.

You know I had similar thoughts. Really an unfamiliar thing for me in 20 years in the Marine Corps. Never remember having a 3 star have to tell me how to be a human being. There was usually a fellow aviator, a sergeant, or in a few instances the CO...but that time was after that really weird night in the P.I. Must be one more service related peculiarities. Perhaps it won't be such a big deal once the Air Force is over...Oh I don't know, maybe...90 years old. Maybe by then, a group of airmen gathered to listen to a 3 star will all be in the same uniform too. And not have their cell phones on them either....time will tell.

Maybe then also they won't be the most spineless, politically correct service in the country as well.

But all this is COMPLETELY off topic from the OP. Thanks again.

I agree Latch, comes off more as a move to show just how PC they are. Idk.
Maybe politics to put himself on the map and get the pentagons attention for his next billet. Wouldn't be the first time I've seen that. Again, no idea really.

 

[Ricochet]

No, actually, I totally get your point:

Why are they protesting lunch counters like that? People just want to go out and have a nice family meal and not have politics shoved in their face! If they really want to protest so bad, they should do it quietly at home!

Did you just go back to the 1960s?
What is your point?

Sure, never happens in the Marines


A former Parris Island battalion commander will face a general court-martial on charges stemming from incidents leading up to the death of Muslim recruit Raheel Siddiqui last year.

Lt. Col. Joshua Kissoon is the highest ranking Marine and the only officer to be referred to a court-martial in connection with investigations into abuse and hazing at the Corps' East Coast recruit depot at Parris Island in South Carolina.

Kissoon faces charges of failure to obey a lawful general order, making a false official statement and conduct unbecoming an officer, Training and Education Command announced on Thursday.

Those chargers came after Kissoon was fired as commander of Parris Island's 3rd Recruit Training Battalion on March 31, 2016, according to TECOM.

The mental midgetry and the intellectual dishonesty have made this not fun anymore. Its like playing chess with pigeons.

 

[Garym]

And people wonder why honest intellectual discussion about the problems in this country never happens? This is why, I don't know if they know that they are being dishonest and untruthful, or are just that mentally incapacitated. Either way we will never be able to move forward until certain demographics get their heads out of their butts.

Yea, I can believe that.

Back to the topic of oppressed black people in America, here is a black man with an outstanding attitude ( notice he is African, not African American and yet, he assimilated ):

Nice. Glad a refugee from Africa can assimilate so well in America. Definitely begs the question though: So why then is Trump banning these refugee orphans from Africa? Couldn't they do just as well?

Trump’s travel ban is leaving these orphans stuck in refugee camps

How many african orphans have you adopted? How about how many Muslims in your home right now coexisting with you up, close and personal?

“Basically our organization is a part of a much larger movement that is fighting for the abolition of prisons, police and anti-blackness itself,” said Assata’s Daughters adult coordinator in a video

Here is something that I have noticed and been wondering if anyone else has.
How many white family's do you see with black children ?? NOW . . . how many black family's do you see with white children ??.
Wondering why that is. --- SAWMAN

 

[Roaster's Gallery]

Sawman - You can tell when a mixed child is with "white" people. A mixed child with "black" people, just looks like a light skinned family member.

On topic - I wonder if the US flag and anthem will be used when the Saints play in England this morning? Go Saints.

 

[Jeb21]

Thank you for that.
The rape stats are quite amazing.

What we will never know is also the black women who have been raped because my impreasiom is that in African American culture that is not "a crime".
On that note:
I think it was only the white Americans who got upset about Trump using the expression "son's of bitches" because as a matter of fact I always hear black males refering to their women as "hos" and "dat bitch", with the exception of Christian black males.

You cannot be serious with these statements.

Took the words right out of my mouth But before you fly away. Explain to me again why it is ok that 25% of the blacks killed in this country by police were unarmed.

 

[Ricochet]

I am a woman.

I have seen it, worked with and heard it from other women and had negative experiences with the above.

So yes, dead serious and speaking from personal exposure.

What does that have to do with anything?
