West Point Cadets Raise Eyebrows As They Raise Fists

NYDN-

A photo of 16 black West Point cadets raising their fists is causing controversy, with many offended viewers linking the image to supporting the “Black Lives Matter” movement.

The image would violate West Point’s policies against participating in political acts or movements while in uniform, if the cadets’ raised fists represent support for the activist group.

“We can confirm that the cadets in this photo are members of the U.S. Military Academy’s Class of 2016,” Lt. Christopher Kasker, a spokesman for West Point, told the Daily News in a statement. “Academy officials are conducting an inquiry into the matter.”

  1. It’s okay for them to break the rules because they’re black. They need their Army Officer training in order to take charge of the white genocide purges they plan to lead in 20 years.

  2. When the Tea Party movement took off and tea bags were being sent to DC the libs had a lot of fun with the sexual “tea baggers” references.
    When a co-worker pulled the same “joke” I said “Okay, I’ll go there. The raised fist is a common socialist salute, being used in communist posters & statues, at Black Panthers meetings, Occupy Everything, & what-not. So if conservatives are tea-baggers then the libs are fisters. How’s that hand feel up your ass?”. That shut down the conversation & innuendos on the spot.

  3. B Hussain O. promised to fundamentally change everything in America. He’s succeeding unhampered. Affirmative Action at West Point. Imagine our young soldiers having to serve under these MOTHERFUCKERS

  4. It appears that the military colleges need to institute the “melanin rule”…cuz the people pictured sure gots a bunch of honkey in their chest of drawers…

  5. This breach of Army rules will be “white washed”. The “investigation” will quietly conclude with no discipline.

    If the Army doesn’t have the Balls to prosecute a known Traitor (bergdahl) they sure won’t enforce rules of conduct against “black” transgressors who support violence, riots and killing cops.

    It is hoped that the politically appointed Army perfumed princes (generals) in the pentagon will resign or start leading their Army in spite of the lying commander and chief.

  6. It appears that everyone in the picture are both (GASP!! — MISOGYNIST!!) wymyn and (GASP! — RACISSSSSSS!!) Black.
    I’m SO glad I’ve done my 20 and am retired. I would absolutely HATE to be an enlisted under the command of ANY of those “upright bipedal hominids”.

    I suspect Col. Hackworth would run them into the dirt and then kick their ass. They are unworthy to grace his Army.
    A warrior’s warrior sees nothing but OD green, everyone is measured by their knowledge, experience, expertise and willingness to step beyond their limitations and fears.

  8. Calm down gentlemen. It’s nothing political or racist, because that would be in violation of the UCMJ. They are only communicating their preferred sexual activity.

  10. Brigadier General Diana M. Holland
    Commandant
    West Point Military Academy,
    634 Swift Road, West Point NY 10996

    Dear General Holland:

    As an ex GI who served four years in the US Army in Europe, under the command of West Point Officers, I ask that you consider not
    commissioning the sixteen female cadets who raised the leftist,BP,BLM, clinched fist salute, while in uniform at The Point.

    They should not be trusted to lead young American men and women, in a chow line, let alone battle.

    Yours Sincerely.

  11. This fucking pisses me off to no end. My older sister was accepted to both army and navy academies. She chose army because it was back in the early days of women getting in. She graduated from west point and became a black hawk pilot. She never once shamed the academy like these d bags! They need to get thrown out! No effing compromise.

  12. USMA will probably treat them like officers. “Officers who, in uniform, support a political party or movement are charged with conduct unbecoming of an officer and failure to follow orders.” These are court-martiallable offenses, but not enough to get them kicked out of the army. Pay reduction and a General Officer letter of reprimand (which would likely destroy their careers unless they were exceptional officers) would be the likely consequence.

  13. Freedom cat. Be proud of your daughter. Well done girl.

    Ricky. I hope it never comes to that. But if they are commissioned, and I hope they won’t be, the thought of fragging will keep them sleepless.
