[h=3]The Army is upset because a bunch of black women raised their fists in a photo[/h]
Excerpt revealing the SLANT........
West Point has gotten it terribly wrong here. They are blowing a picture out of proportion and instead of giving these cadets the benefit of the doubt, letting them celebrate the strength and unity that the academy fostered in them, they are being investigated. West Point is actually exhibiting the very implicit racism that lies at the center of the BLM movement. If this picture was full of white female cadets with raised fists, would there even be an investigation? Would those raised fists still mean support of BLM if they were covered in white skin instead of brown skin?
ANSWER: No, they wouldn't......however had they been 12 white women holding up Confederate Flags imagine the outcry from this Author and all the rest of the liberals?
Truth is.............there are Regulations regarding how a member of the US Military is to conduct themselves, regardless of race, creed, color, OR sex. Every person in the Military knows this, and accepts these Regulations when they "sign up."
