Daily Beast: The U.S. Air Force’s ‘Sick’ Rape & Party Songbook
Protect Our Defenders President Col Don Christensen (ret.) and Communications Director Brian Purchia are featured in this Daily Beast article:
“What I’d like to see is [Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Welsh] stand up and try to sing one of these in front of the Senate and see how it goes,” Christensen told The Daily Beast. “There are women in these squadrons, there are men in these squadrons, who object to this stuff, they’re ostracized because they don’t go along with them.”
Out of the dozens of songs listed, Christensen is most unsettled by the Willy Wonka parody. “That’s the one about sticking ice picks in women’s ears and raping them from behind,” he said.
“It’s kind of crazy to compare this to the [University of Oklahoma Sigma Alpha Epsilon] situation,” Brian Purchia, Protect Our Defenders spokesman, said. “The university expelled the students and closed the frat within hours of the video being made public. What has the [Air Force] done to address this situation?”
