MOO, the findings of the investigation <<LINK>> are unconvincing, especially 4(c). A cadet indicated that it was a bad idea and one minute was enough time for someone to say/do the right thing.

IRT comparisons of the KKK to the Black Panthers, IMO, historical amnesia does not help stop the spread of race-based radicalism in America--it just fans the flames. (Who was worse off: blacks in the South in the late 1860s, Catholics in Indiana in the 1920s, or whites in Oakland, Richmond (CA), or Chicago in the late 1960s? )
