Army investigates: Are these West Point cadets making a political statement in uniform?

I would have to say the evidence certainly points that way. And unfortunately they chose a very controversial political statement at that. I can't really say what should happen because this is a very delicate situation with our current political and social climate. Punish them and certain people are going to start screaming about violations of free speech. There will probably be others right now will take it all the way to claiming institutional racism. Don't punish them and other people are going to point out how the military is letting these blatant acts of misconduct go "in the interest of political correctness."

It's rather obvious to me they are supporting the black lives matter, now that being said they may not be.

IT DOESNT MATTER EITHER WAY. They are in uniform and PERCEPTION is reality. If they do not get charged with UCMJ or they do not get discharged it will be discrimination if either things happen it will be labeled discrimition it's a lose lose situation

I'm not an officer, nor did I ever attend or graduate from West Point, but wouldn't or shouldn't a cadet (which is a private who went to college before joining their chosen branch) know 670-1? Somewhere in their endless classes, where they taught what 670-1 is and when, where, how, and what not to do while in uniform? If not, their ignorance falls on West Point. If so, they just spat in the face of 670-1 and deserve their Article 15's.
