USAFA Superintendent talks to cadets about racial slurs found on campus

You gonna say that it was black people marching with tiki torches too, then? Yeah, some people fake it, and those people are idiots who make it harder for the rest of us who deal with hatred. But like all crime, false reporting is about the same rate as assault, rape, robbery charges, etc. To say that the majority is 'people faking it' is idiotic.

Wain Dalton First off, the "hate" speeches you speak of works on the causal/effect principle and/or the action/reaction principle. Black folks in this country have been subject to endless gestures of hate. We give as good if not better as we get, remember that. ...and NO, none of it is right if you ask me. With that being said, I suggest you take your blinders off or man up...play victim and hijack a weaker narrative than mine, somewhere else please and while you are, ask yourself honestly why do you think that is? Second, the General will not take sides speaking in an official capacity, it is against DoD and Air Force policy to do so. He is setting the example of acceptable behavior by "toeing the line" himself, in front of all his troops.

And in case you're confused, a reprimand as a cadet means your career is over and an Article-15 is a federal conviction from the military. That's pretty much career death regardless military or otherwise. Of all the services, the Air Force does not play with racism and stupidity.

+Ardenwolfe "Of all the services, the Air Force does not play with racism and stupidity." That has been my experience as well.

(I'm civilian for a DoD sub agency that works with active in all branches.) To EternalPhoenix2183, a dishonorable discharge will follow you for any civilian career you might want.

Does the truth matter to you? "Air Force Academy Prep School: Black cadet admitted to writing racist remarks on dorm doors"

[@holton345]

Bravo, General Silveria. I wish we had more leaders like you today.

[@KeithGriffin]

This is amazingly on point and the perfect response. Anyone who gave this a thumbs down (9 so far) should take his advice and get out.

[@gracefromspace5502]

NOW! This is leading from the front...this is how you bring people together. THIS is a man that I would follow into battle. Not that orange race-baiter in the White House...that has never served. This gave me chills!

[@henryalexander8560]

I agree, big-time!!

[@sheilabaker6726]

Did you miss the message being given here?

[@dagnabbit6187]

Grace I go way back . Am aging Boomer. honestly From what is going on in all branches of Government , I can say I have never been more afraid for my Country ! Honestly Even that Ass Clown Ted Nugent said there was no racism in late 60's Early 70's . That wasn't true but the intensity and the shittiness of it was leaving but two people brought it back. David Duke in the 70's and Al Sharpton in the 80's . We are a multi-Cultural ethnic Nation whether Racists and Race baiters want to admit it or not. Trump just wanted a trophy and he got it . Those on the Supreme Court and McConnell and Ryan , I fear more and although I am a Democrat i can remember a Republican party that was far more sane and compassionate than this bunch now. Trump is just an Independent Rogue who saw the opportunity and grabbed it. Liberals underestimated his shrewdness regardless of his gaffes and now they are paying for their presumptuousness . Yes this Air Force LT. General as well as that Senator from Arizona are true Patriots unlike particular Chicken Hawks who try to smear them .

[@BLUDDYknucklez]

Sebastian Ionescu Wow even this is a hoax somehow? You Trumpsters are just unbelievable.

[@MaxiPCX]

To battle? bitch please you wouldnt even know how to shoot a weapon

[@QPham-nz5po]

I wish the entire country would take notice of these words. Treat people the way you want to be treated and this country wouldn't have any problems

[@tokioobsessed1983]

He swallowed the lies of the graffiti artist, however.

Thank you #USAFA We need more people like Lt Gen Jay Silveria to speak up, loud and clear

[@waindalton8575]

No, we don't. "Air Force Academy Prep School: Black cadet admitted to writing racist remarks on dorm doors"

[@mesee557]

You, Sir have restored my faith in America. Thank you.

[@ym5891]

Yet, no correction after finding out a BLACK student did this. You have no faith, or respect of any kind. You ARE a racist.

[@nicholasmedovich8691]

Indeed. Attitude is EQUALLY important

[@macctv_bayarea]

Extremely proud of this publicized display on the part of our USAF leadership... I can only hope that this is the beginning of something grand.... Thank you for your continued and honorable service to our country!

[@waindalton8575]

There's nothing great about it. In fact, just the opposite. "Air Force Academy Prep School: Black cadet admitted to writing racist remarks on dorm doors"

[@macctv_bayarea]

Wain Dalton you truly missed the point.... or you dont really care and just like to troll....

[@TMXPollinator]

Thank you, sir! I would've loved to be in the Air Force Academy, but ended up enlisted. Thank you for standing up for diversity. I'm outraged

[@Nodnarb69]

DaFox45 - The Pollinator you’re no better than him. He didn’t rape your women all we know your ancestors did. That’s just racist and you’re fucked up in the head to give in to him. This isn’t Amerikkka last time I checked it’s America, where racism isn’t tolerated.

[@victoriamcfarlane8392]

Cool JeansBro tells the guy who originally wrote a very positive message that he's fucked In the head. Claims racism isn't tolerated but then proceeds to tolerate it by not addressing the person who made the original ignorant comment about diversity being bullshit. Acts like it has not been proven that white people raped and tormented black people ancestors.. says "for all we know it was your ancestors who did that" I'm dying over here. The ignorance. You realize you are more angered by a person calling out racism than you are the racist. Top grade humor!! 😂

[@Boso-ii2ef]

I agree wholeheartedly that racism has no place and the decent civilized people call out all racism no matter what side it may come from. slavery was a terrible thing, just as it was every time it's happened to people throughout history. the good thing is that we have finally evolved to the point where almost everyone finally understands that it's immoral to own another human being as property. it is now a basic value instilled into everyone that has decent parents to teach them right from wrong as it should be. no one that is alive today has ever owned a slave though and we need to try not to blame people for things that their ancestors did and they had no control over. there are of course some people of every ethnicity that are racist, but those people are the ignorant minority, not the majority. the fact is the only race that exists is the human race. we are all human beings more than we're members of whatever race we were arbitrarily born into. we're all family in some way on this planet, and science backs that fact up with enormous evidence. we all have to stop focusing on stupid insignificant differences like the color of skin we happen to have and keep in mind the important things like human decency that make us all alike. everyone is unique and different in ways but we're all far more alike than we are different.

[@glennsmith6071]

Cool JeansBro so you dont address the person who said diversity is bullshit smh stupid ass

Damn! What a charisma. I literally 'reached for my phone' while sitting in front of my computer watching this.

Respect General 👍💛💂Racism has no place in this world

[@waindalton8575]

The black man who scribbled the graffiti is a racist, Omar.

[@querubekelso9398]

HATS OFF we need more people with this true high moral and leadership.

[@1Truckman]

I began to learn the value of racial equality during my tenure in the USAF...Gen. Silveria has my respect and my salute for making his views public and official...

[@ym5891]

Yet, no mention on the fact that this was a hoax committed by a black student trying to frame whites. You're a racist.

[@joehoncho8557]

For falling for a hoax??

[@sjadler100]

BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO!!! This is what a TRUE LEADER sounds like and acts!!!

[@polypowtube7185]

This is the type of leadership that we need. I am willing to follow this man in battle and fight for our freedom and rights as human beings. All American needs to hear this.

[@TheHarperDave]

OUTSTANDING!!!!! THIS is what I call a commander! We need a LOT more of THIS!

[@waindalton8575]

Commanders don't push hoaxes. "Air Force Academy Prep School: Black cadet admitted to writing racist remarks on dorm doors"

[@gor1l1a]

There is no ambiguity. No one in that room or who watches this video can misunderstand Lt Gen Jay Silveria's position. That's what real leaders do.

[@waindalton8575]

Real leaders don't perpetuate hoaxes.

[@chetjuall2269]

It is not easy to speak this effectively. A powerful, effective and appropriate speech. Well done.

[@ym5891]

He shut up real fast when it turned out this racism came from a black student, though.

[@michaellandi1090]

Tank you Sir. 👏👏👏👏 U. S. Navy, retired.

[@jmpomerleau]

Applause! Applause! I literally applauded my computer screen when he was done. We need more of THAT!!

A real leader does not promote racial hoaxes such as this one. "Air Force Academy Prep School: Black cadet admitted to writing racist remarks on dorm doors"

It is so simple. Dignity and Respect. We all deserve it. No hesitations, no qualifications. Bravo USAF and Lt Gen Silveria!

[@waindalton8575]

So false. "Air Force Academy Prep School: Black cadet admitted to writing racist remarks on dorm doors"

Marty Schneider is a racist, clearly. He believes anti-white rhetoric, every time. Even when this was a hoax committed by a black student.
