The messages were writes by a BLACK cadet...........................(CNN)In late September, after racist slurs were found on the message boards of five black cadet candidates at the Air Force Academy Preparatory School, the school's superintendent was angry. Lt. Gen. Jay Silveria told cadets to line up and pull out their phones to remember his message, and he forcefully denounced racism and intolerance. "If you're outraged by those words, then you're in the right place. That kind of behavior has no place at the Prep School," Silveria said. The speech was posted on Air Force Academy's Facebook page and quickly went viral. The Air Force launched an internal investigation to find the culprit. The powerful message the Air Force Academy's superintendent wanted to send loud and clear The powerful message the Air Force Academy's superintendent wanted to send loud and clear But on Tuesday, Air Force Academy officials said that one of the black cadet candidates actually wrote the racist messages. "We can confirm that one of the cadet candidates who was allegedly targeted by racist remarks written outside their dorm room was actually responsible for the act," the Academy said in a written statement. "The individual admitted responsibility and this was validated by the investigation." The vandalism was written in black marker and said "Go home" with the N-word, according to CNN affiliate KRDO. Lt. Col. Allen Herritage, director of public affairs with the Academy, said that the cadet responsible admitted his guilt when confronted. The individual has "received administrative punishment" and is no longer at the preparatory school, Herritage said. The four other students that were the target of the vandalism are still at the Prep School, which is on the same campus in Colorado Springs, Colorado, as the Air Force Academy. The Prep School helps ready about 240 cadets each year to enter the academy. 'This is our institution' Air Force Academy Superintendent Lt. Gen Jay Silveria speaking to Cadets in Sept, 2017. Air Force Academy Superintendent Lt. Gen Jay Silveria speaking to Cadets in Sept, 2017. Silveria, the Academy's superintendent, made clear in his speech in September that there would be no tolerance for racist rhetoric at the Academy. "If you can't treat someone from another gender, whether that's a man or a woman, with dignity and respect, then you need to get out," he said. "If you demean someone in any way, then you need to get out. And if you can't treat someone from another race or different color skin with dignity and respect, then you need to get out." "This is our institution, and no one can take away our values," Silveria added. "No one can write on a board and question our values. No one can take that away from us." Although the hateful graffiti was revealed to be a hoax, the Air Force Academy affirmed that same message of dignity respect in a statement on Tuesday. "Racism has no place at the Academy, in any shape or form. We will continue to create a climate of dignity and respect for all, encourage ideas that do so, and hold those who fail to uphold these standards accountable." Silveria said in a statement on Tuesday that his speech remained relevant despite the investigation's outcome. "Regardless of the circumstances under which those words were written, they were written, and that deserved to be addressed," he said. "You can never overemphasize the need for a culture of dignity and respect and those who don't understand those concepts aren't welcome here." CNN's Jamie Crawford contributed to this report.

@Simba Your observations are accurate to be sure, but the real horrors of the US system are the electoral college and campaign finance laws. There have been five elections (including two in the last 20 years) in which a candidate got more electoral college votes but lost the popular vote. Most recently, 2.8 million more people voted for Clinton, but because of the way the electoral college system is structured, tRump got in. It puts the election in a handful of swing states which decides the results for the entire country. The recent erosion to campaign finance laws have basically legalized political bribery to the benefit of the power elite in both parties. Both of these issues are responsible for squelching much chance for third parties to gain traction. Recent extreme efforts by Republicans to suppress voter participation have also contributed to the point where the U.S. is now considered a "Flawed Democracy", ranked 25th on the Democracy Index compiled by the Economist Intelligence Unit. The so-called "Beacon of Hope" the US used to aspire to be is now a cautionary tale about how a noble experiment can, in time, fail.

A black calling his own n's, is stupid! What, they miss being call it and was too peaceful? Their GrandPa's and GrandMa's fought for civil rights only to lose it by Hoods and feel like prisoners in their own homes in their neighborhoods. I'm not judging by their skin, only by the content of their character! As it was drepmt by Dr. King, 👍, 💪 😯 It's sad it came out that way, but it sure has me give props to their Grand Pops. l sat down with a few, Black men, separate times having a beer together, most of them are very good with words and It's where l was told what l just stated.👍 Mexicans being majority of the Hispanics and also thee U.S.! It would also sound stupid to say anything self-bigoted, right? It be a selfinflicting racist and a self-conflicting bigoted comment! 😀😁 No, race isn't nothing anymore, l see no dogs bitting in modern times and not fire hoses used to ward of protesters. Given the population of the U.S., the possibilities of racial inicidences and there are way more Americans turned off by racism, We have changed. Oh yeah, there's still room for improvement and it's coming.

There is no room anywhere for this bad behaviour. Well done to the commander, staff and pupils and this exact talk should be made to all new students starting the commander said great words, true and to the point he gave a great address and encouraged all to talk openly about issues and leaving his door open for anyone needing to talk about issues and concerns. Commander showed true great leadership opening the eyes to all. Great job for you tubing this and great job by the commander. I experienced similar when in the army myself. 4 guys sitting a a table having their breakfast but running someone down talking about the person behind their back. Others were laughing in agreement with the 4 backstabbers. I shouted over to the guys and asked where the guy they were talking about was. They replied over in the billet. I told the guys they think they are brave talking about someone not present and taking their character. I also told them cowards only do this to redirect attention off themselves and asked them what they are so scared of is it that someone might see their characters.

pizza steve , I Support politicians based on theirs policies , not based on party or Race. History and politics are part of my intensive profession engagement for 26 years now. I do not watch talk shows All the points I made are true facts. It is very painful when the Person you always thought was a hero turns out factually not to be just another Normal Guy from the Lobbyhood. 44 + 45 , all thesame MESS , even 42 and 41. A great US jazz trumpeter was beaten up By the Police in the mid 1950s .... What just happened a couple of days is no new BUSSINESS. However Language can be very dangerous weapon when badly used. Thanks

@@quantum_chezburger2279 "Yellow" describes asians typically, look at any 1940's or 1970's propaganda pictures that the US, GB, SUand or any other allied nation drew, all of the asians are typically yellow, so thats where that came from, and the movie he's quoting is set during vietnam, and lets just say (this is coming form a major US patriot) it was not a really good time to be Asian and in vietnam.

@Boots Jew ➊ Stop with your slanderous rhetoric. Remember who gives you the right to say that. The military and the government do to protect you. Remember, without them you'd be dead by now if you said the wrong thing. Do not abuse your rights please, it disrespects the point of this nation.
@TheIroncladResearcher3 роки тому
@Boots Jew ➊ Still with the falsehoods. Drone Strikes are much safer than manned strikes and even then the military prefers to have a confirmed match on their target before opening fire. Preferably outside of population centers, I read a book on it called Drone Warrior which illustrated it from a non-biased author who operated the drones.
