We aren’t “lowering” the norms/standard…. We are “modifying” it.

And see that’s a different word which makes it ok…

And apparently one of the modifications is to let people quit and come back as many times as they want.

Don't remember which thread the argument about Jan6 was in so I'll put this here.

Something fishy here. There are multiple sources.

I have some serious concerns that Babbit shooting wasn't investigated seriously due to political partisanship, which is a shame.

Either way, this falls squarely into the play stupid games, win stupid prizes column for me.  Don't vandalize/break into a federal building (or any building for that matter) and your chances of getting shot tend to diminish rapidly.

Nope. Not good enough. We are not going to outrage over a dozen shootings of unarmed individuals resisting arrest and then decide to not outrage over a person who happens to be of the opposite political end also being killed in another likely unjustified shooting. That's not justice. Everyone needs to be treated equally under the law. Not just people from our preferred political demographic.

Ah yes, I misread your post, I'm in agreement with you there.  I file many (not all) of those resisting arrests incidents into the same column as this chick.

Here's a thought experiment to help evaluate the justice involved here:  Swap the skin colors or genders of the two individuals involved.  Do you think the outcome would be different?  If so, the results of this case are unjust.

It’s going to get worse, on the woke and readiness side.. until we fix acquisitions, our planes will continue to suffer.  Diversity quotas won’t help the acquisition process.  Meanwhile in Ukrainian and the Pacific..

His opening sentence incorrectly identifies the CMSAF, which casts doubt on the credibility of his other sources, evidence, and conclusions.

“..have made diversify and wokeness”; I think he’s simply stating that CMSGT Wright started the USAF’s recent woke catalyst with his unprofessional tirade after the Floyd incident.  He later addresses the current Chief Master Sergeant Bass.

This is why the Florida bill is necessary…and I don’t see how this stuff is a winning message for the left this fall.  Until we get rid of public (ie government schools that indoctrinate kids) funded by forcing people to give up their wealth to fund such schools, then banning this kind of indoctrination of very young children is the next best thing.

Why are parents surprised? This shit is  everywhere. If any of you read this and say, “glad that’s not in my kid’s (public) school,” you’re 100% wrong. Time for everyone to get off their asses and fight this bullshit.

My kids school has a sign in the parking lot that reads something to the effect of "Staff is armed and will use lethal force to defend students."

I'm not saying that stuff isn't at my kids' school.  But maybe not.

That’s awesome. While some places are definitely better than others, nowhere is safe from this crap. It is directed to the states from the federal level, so it is there in some form, even if “minor” in comparison to off-the-rail places like CA, etc. Bottom line is parents need to be vigilant and continuously demand full transparency and understanding of curriculum their kids are under. If there’s the slightest pushback from teachers, admin, or school board when you ask pointed questions and demand to see things for yourself - you have a much bigger problem than you think.

Shack.

I've decided, though I haven't seen any evidence of chicanery, that I'll make it a point just to go sit in on a school board meeting.  And make it a point to vote in school board elections.  Again, not because I think there is anything nefarious afoot in my little ISD, but because it is clearly important for parents to show up and be visible; if only to shake hands and thank the board members that have taken the time to step up and serve.  Message sent.
