I see nothing racially charged about the mud photos. Stupid facial expressions and dirty ass people playing in the mud.

If there were more stereotyping poses, props, or dialogue that would be a different story.

Hummm....I don't know about this one...I saw some things that are a bit questionable but you know what??? It seems that lately people are only doing things to bring attention to their dumb a$$e$ and to stir up trouble---just to say they didn't mean anything by it when there are complaints or they might get in trouble for it. I'm just tired of cowardly people in general...stand by your stupidity and stop provoking things you can't handle dealing with. This is just plan stuck on stupid....lol...I'm tired.....I'm leaving now...lol...

I didn't even know the Coast Guard had an academy, but AFAIK it was given to a white woman..?? Don't really know how that one's going to be handled.

The first was left in the bag of a black cadet in mid-July on board the Coast Guard cutter Eagle, officials said. The cadet pulled out the noose at a crew meeting the next morning and told everyone that he was offended.

The second noose was found in early August on the floor of the office of a white female officer who had been conducting race relations training in response to the first incident.
