Homophobic and racist costumes prompt Virginia Military Institute investigation

vmi fairiesVirginia Military Institute has asked a student governing body to investigate and recommend discipline against cadets who attended a Halloween party wearing Nazi costumes and others that parodied gays and Africans. As you'll see from the photos there's reason to be disturbed - men dressed as fairies, complete with tiaras, wands, wings, pink briefs and T-shirts reading "I [love] a man in uniform." In another, a youth dressed in a sailor's uniform is bent over to display a target taped to his ass, while a shirtless cadet sidles up behind him. Richmond Indymedia has some photos while Greg's So Called Life has more.
