| Gen Milley says US & military are struggling with racism & have much more to do |
| 2020-07-10 |
[PUBLISH.TWITTER] I went to my first (and mandatory) Army "Race Relations" class in Berlin in 1974 or '75. They told us we were all racists. I stopped listening about that time. I don't think they've said anything much different since. That "discussion on race" stuff doesn't involve an exchange of opinions. I strongly recommend promotion board minority quotas along with an effort to increase the number of sergeant majors of color. Doing away with MOS tests and mandatory weigh-in should also be considered. Lastly, prior felony convictions should not preclude one from enlisting. [sarc off] |

| #5 Not going to put my life in the hands of an army who picks my superiors to match race quotas. That is an army that will be destroyed post haste. |

| #3 ..And sexism! When are we going to have one set of PT (physical training) tests? Or are we going to do away with them like the universities that have dropped SAT and ACT tests? |

| #2 "Gen Milley says US & military are struggling with racism & have much more to do." 1. Carla works for VOA news...AKA MSM. So what I see is negative spin, disguised as news 2. He's testifying before Congress (aka Dog & Pony Show), so what was he supposed to say? 3. Just what the hell is systemic racism anyway? I know what the words mean, I just have a problem when they are combined. I also notice no examples are ever provided. NEWS FLASH!!! it's not 1920. |
