Naval Academy defends move to adjust image on national TV

<p>lol, I was more commenting on:</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>All I needed was the Dant’s call when the entire brigade, including one plebe that caught the brunt of his wrath, questioned Gucci on his handling of the situation. </p>

<p>Seriously, let it drop mombee. This is an old thread that needs to die.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I remember the same BS being done in the summer of 1987. </p>

<p>But I guess content of character is harder to capture on-screen than color of skin. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>ETA: There is no way I’m reading the totality of this trainwreck based solely on the few posts I glimpsed through.</p>

<p>Some things never change! :D</p>

<p>If only you knew how ignorant you are of the situation, mombee.</p>

<p>It’s really quite hilarious.</p>

<p>At the risk of following your lead and repeating myself, please allow me to rephrase my question. Since my comments were almost totally in line with those of Cdr Carpenter, the Commandant, and the Superintendent, are you stating that these three gentlemen also are quite hilarious?</p>

<p>Is your name HAL, per chance? :eek:</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>YES! Finally you get it! </p>

<p>The “official” story in no way matches the truth and is nothing but a politically-correct cover to appease those who feel that “diversity is the #1 goal at the USNA.”</p>

<p>Luigi, my comment was a question, not a statement. And it was, and remains, a question for Krypter.</p>

<p>Who cares?!?! Why do people feel the need to argue this for months after it has happened?</p>

<p>The administration did what it did, namely, damage control to make the incident appear as copacetic as possible, and that is that. No one blames them for what they did, as it makes sense. I fail to see any debate here…</p>

<p>Yeesh people, live and let live a little bit maybe?</p>

<p>

Au contraire.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>midn’12 …you know the answer to your question, I’m confident.</p>

<p>And aplages is correct. Many would, will, are in total agreement with “au contraire.” All one need do is rean virtually any USN publication …except Shipmates…to get a flavor for what virtually all USN vets who write in or speak up. This is the only blog-simile on the planet w/ vocal backers. Make that backer.</p>
