Pentagon training manual

FOX news
Seems FOX is the only place making a stink about it. I read through the 20 pages the article refers to and don't see the problem. The wording regading the founders is a bit clumsy but I think the point is pretty clear and FOX seems to have missed it. No surprise there.

Simply put, a healthy, white, heterosexual, Christian male receives many unearned advantages of social privilege, whereas a black, homosexual, atheist female in poor health receives many unearned disadvantages of social privilege,” reads a statement in the manual created by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI).

Anybody who thinks the Old White Boy's Club doesn't still run this country is a fool. Good for the DEOMI. The problem will of course auto-correct in another few generations. Nobody listened to all the white people yapping about reducing population size except white people.

I thought LBJ's Civil Rights Act of 1964. the creation of the EEOC, Affirmative Action and the Federal Fair Housing Act had fixed and repaired all racial 'inequalities'. I know at my last visit to the EEOC, the only people waiting to get in to see a counselor were black pregnant females, no men (other than myself) and no other races were represented. Once I was called into the EEOC counselors office, there hung a very large portrait of the man of the hour, Martin Luther King.

God Bless him.

Why on earth would you think that various acts would change the way people think over night? The CRA certainly made things better but that is just one step out of many.

Time to get to work and pass mucho grande legislation in hopes of fixing and repairing the situation, right? I mean, we all know and understand that creating bills and passing legislation is the 'fix'...........

That's not the case in a lot of cities, all the races get a little clique when they get in power. Try being white in an inner city government and get promoted.

Duck and hide from Airline Forums, Dave?

Do some checking, minorities ala Black, Hispanic, Female and Asian have been the forefront of promotion within the military.

Gays will or already are...

And you opine we have a problem within the ranks regarding racism, feminism and so on?

Promotion of said minorities to command positions will, in due time correct what keeps you awake at night.

LBJ fought civil rights through the 1950's. It was pushed by Republicans, he signed it to be on the right side of the wave as it came by in his ambition to be president. From 1957:

“These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don’t move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there’ll be no way of stopping them, we’ll lose the filibuster and there’ll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It’ll be Reconstruction all over again.”

Standing in line marking time, waiting for the welfare dime
'Cause they can't buy a job
The man in the silk suit hurries by
As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes just for fun he says, "Get a job"

That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
But don't you believe them

They say hey little boy you can't go where the others go
'Cause you don't look like they do
Said hey old man how can you stand to think that way
Did you really think about it before you made the rules, he said, son

That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
But don't you believe them

Well they passed a law in '64
To give those who ain't got a little more
But it only goes so far because the law don't change another's mind
When all it sees at the hiring time is the line on the color bar

That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
Thats just the way it is, it is, it is, it is

The Way It Is - YouTube

I knew BB was stalking me, now you too? Kind of creepy but not surprising.

And that must mean bigotry is a thing of the past right?

Yes but now they do not need to hide who they are and risk being discharged.

Yep. Tail Hook ring a bell?

In that we agree. The old guard will move along and the new guard will take it's place. Hopefully they will be wiser as well.

She certainly makes a strong case for mandatory sterilization for those dependant on public assistance.

I for one am elated that the U.S now has a Muslim Prez...and that the Muslim Brotherhood has infiltrated the White House.

Now the folks just have to work on correct pronunciation of the words: Sharia-Caliphate-Jihad
