Oh crap, i was in military during the Reagan presidency and we had diversity training and all that. It's all about team work and racism hurts that.

 

I was in the military during the Ford/Carter presidencies. We didn't have any diversity training. And women were viewed and treated as weaker. In my training, we had to pull fire watches at night. When the women had to do it they got the next morning off while us men, did not.

It's not the same thing. You're being obtuse and you know it.

 

Actually, if he's being obtuse, he probably doesn't know it.

 

Again, g'man, look up the definition of words BEFORE you attempt to use them in a sentence...please!

And you think effective teamwork comes about as a result of 'diversity training'? :lol:

Haters hurt teamwork, is that fact in doubt?? :mellow:

I can assure you no amount of diversity or sensitivity training can fix someone who wants to be an ignorant hater, and it can frusterate and annoy the hell out of people who are nowhere near being racists and are sick of hearing diversity training. In fact one could argue Ridiclious diversity training is a contributor to some of the race baiting and racial tensions we have now. Everyone should be treated the same, stop breaking people apart into their own unique groups.

It will never eliminate it, but it does create awareness and makes people look for it, discuss it and attempt to reduce the worst aspects of it. The idea we should simply ignore it is evil and should be punished B-) The High Court of Gatorman :devil:

 

Um...ok. I have a few more minutes to throw dodgeballs at you.

 

So then what is the point of diversity training?

You probably get picked last to play dodgeball, huh?

That moment when.....gatortard finally realizes his posts on a topic have led full circle back to his glaring stupidity and he has no where left to run.

CHANGE: America’s Air Supremacy Is Fading Fast.

 

As regards the much higher performance F-22, only about ninety are available for global air supremacy tasks. This is arguably too small for winning air supremacy in one theatre, let alone both Europe and the Pacific.

 

Ongo
ing peacetime training attrition is further gradually reducing this small fleet. The

2

009 decision ceasing F-22 production early was based in part on beliefs that it was irrelevant to countering Islamic extremists or the counterinsurgency wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Events have now overtaken this perspective.

 

 

Scaling back American power is a feature, not a bug, to those who never believed in American exceptionalism.

Blaming that on Obama ignores years of Air Force mismanagement. That's not limited to the F-22 - across the board, the Air Force lacks vision, discipline, coherent doctrine, overall direction, accountability, a clear understanding of mission, and meaningful political support, and that goes all the way back to 1992 (if not earlier).

 

And all those issues the Air Farce has are already starting to evidence themselves in the B-21 Bomber program...which was only finally awarded three weeks ago! (There's already accusations of fraud floating around, they expect to use it to partially fund F-35 engine development, the Senate is already questioning the acquisition, they have a plethora of intended missions for it - meaning they have no defined mission for it, and costs are already increasing. But goddammit, they're going to have a stealthy batwing airframe!)

 

The Air Force is quite simply !@#$ed up. Has been since they decided their 5-gen air superiority fighter had to be a fighter-bomber (after cancelling the fighter-bomber version of the same airframe.) That's not in any way Obama's fault.
