It makes me sick we still have military conscription, of course only for the most underprivileged part of our society = healthy young white males.

:rotfl:

That is actually funny.

Now that I've seen it, I really don't see what the fuss was all about. There's such a lack of intensity or any sort of genuine malice in that video, I honestly can't see how it could be considered hugely hateful or anything. It's just dumb.

I agree. I think it was just a bad joke on the instructor's part.

I really don't get it. A corporal has to be funny once in a while .. what's the big deal?

This "scandal" is just another pointless episode in a long streak of P.C., anti-military bull**** we have to take.

He even didn't use the "N" word but - fully pc compliant - "Afroamerikaner". I don't have the slightest clue why he chose this ethnic group but this whole thing seems like a joke to me, surely a tasteless one but certainly not worth to be discussed to such an extent .

This videos only proves that noone has to fear Germany anymore ...
