So, this is from the Daily Beast, and it infers that military veterans must be monitored. It brings up "the present and historical ties between American hate groups and armed servicemen and women....".
My own belief is that, because Veterans, Evangelical Christians, conservative Catholics, and mothers disagreeing with school boards tend to not vote the way that the staff of the Daily Beast would like, then they should be rounded up like the Gypsies and Jews in Germany in 1939 (too much of a threat to the New Order).
It seems that this article would classify George Washington as a "Radicalized Military Vet".
So, how do you see it?

MSG Lonnie Averkamp short answer is no. there are screw ups on both sides of the political spectrum and a few in between but to call a whole group radical is ridiculous

I agree but we need to start some where. I have seen how other countries look at us from there side and how I as an American see us now. This just blows my mind away.
I will not travel out side the US anymore because I am ashamed of what our government is doing to all of us and even to our friends and allies around the world.
I am tired of all the lies they say and all the false reporting going on.
We really need to start getting our lives in order because life is short and we do not have much time left.

Spc Mark Marquette: I am not saying that it was the last few presidents that are at fault nor am I pointing any fingers at anyone in our government. All I am saying is that we currently need to have term limits in place to rid the government of the old blood and put new fresh blood in to get us a fresh start. I am a strong Republican who only votes republican and I am proud to say this my family has been voting republican for several years. I don't like seeing that all of our hard work of our fellow service brothers and sisters who gave the ultimate price for our safety and security of this great nation go un appreciated and disrespected by some old cronies in the government. This is what I making refferance to.

If anyone is radical. it is the right. they have systematically started dismantling this country ever since the Tea Party, but much more with MAGA cult members. Not saying everyone on the left is perfect, but there not trying to destroy democracy or tying to pit left against right. i remember back to when we could actually agree to disagree. That day is long past thanks to MAGA and Trump.

SSgt Mary Dungan - Can you please be more specific when you say how the right is more radical as compared to the left. (I consider BLM and ANTIFA a part of the left) Critical thinking will tell you that President Trump has been railroaded from the very start. Why do the top feeders on the left want to keep him out of office? He is not a politician and yes, he is there to rock the boat. He is there to fix what is broken in our government, and that may mean bringing down some big names not only on the left but the right as well. I support what he is doing for the country. He's not doing it for the money since he gives his government income to charitable causes as opposed to all others going in poor and becoming millionaires before they leave.

I’m afraid this is an issue we will not be able to avoid in the coming times.

SFC John Davis - I truly ish I could down vote you several times. Just what is your definition of a domestic enemy? ANTIFA? The woke movement? Probably not. I look at what my kids and grandkids will have as a country and intensely dislike it. Hope you are studying up on Mandarin!

LtCol Bruce Janis - i recall a particular System from my Artillery Days we trained with for such as nations with millions time millions of people. I also recall beginning to think the System was not real until they caught the Chinese man trying to return to his country with specifications describing the System and it's purpose. I hate it like shit that those young idiots watching The Apprentice were the ones who powered that man into the White House! From Artillery to Public Affairs I ran into those who brought their racism and prejudice into the Military with them! Five years ago I saw numbers listing the Veterans' Population around 24 million. I saw an article recently listing a population of between 10 and 15 million. Scratched my head and wondered where they got their information. When I got to Germany in '77 my Battery was full of Vietnam Veterans who talked of areas where the damn rubber trees were planted being nonfire zones and other kind of shit. Spill Our People blood and allow those russian influenced fighters to run to them because they knew they were safe zones. Both sides of the aisle have some really messed up people who have no business being in Congress. If I say none of those people need to hold office unless they have Military Time, many of you will say we will have a Police State. I don't think so, if we had a heavy leaning and Pro Congress for the Military I seriously doubt we would be having that situation with the tuberville man!

He is an entertainment critic, generally speaking his opinion is completely useless.
I haven't seen the movie, but the article does nothing to actually support all the claims in it with any kind of fact, statistic, or data; he simply quotes politicians.
For a long time there was talk of how gangs were sending people into the military to get training to become more useful on the streets.
There will always be fringe groups and there will always be veterans who feel betrayed by the government that join them. It isn't really limited to any race or religion. But when they focus it down this way, they make it seem as if 50% of vets end up in these groups and that they number in the millions in size.
How many vets were involved in the riots throughout America's major cities during 2020? Why aren't we exploring that since they want to go so heavily into the capitol intrusion?
I wouldn't put this as an article anywhere near realistic, but simply garbage click bait; which I bit, because it was here.

SPC Brian Pritchard/Hall I use duckduck go on the regular, have for some years.
SPC Mark Marquette You are just a troll and unworthy of any real conversation. Point in case: you refer to the freedom caucus as "insane, morons, actually!". I'm not actually sure why you are here because you are doing exactly what you accuse so many others of doing; spreading your opinion as fact. The real point remains that you do so at such a volume that you think drowning others in your opinion will make it real. You gaslight people and call it 'reality'. The fact that you are not verified and claim retired status makes me believe you are little more than a basement troll who might have actually stepped foot in a recruiter's office; oddly reminiscent of Hillary's comment during the campaign season. Good day :: insert pronoun here ::

Correction: SPC Jeff Daley, PhD I have been using duckduck go for some years and still need to search for full results. Just far less than say google or other big engines. I appreciate you spreading the word though.

SFC Marc W. really? It’s now name calling? Suppose you like the new politically correct base names. Dude just pull your bottom lip over your head and swallow.

SPC Brian Pritchard/Hall I'm not sure where the confusion is that got you wound up towards me, so let me clarify:
First and foremost, you were incorrectly tagged in that response, notice how I mentioned duckduck go, and immediately followed up that comment below it with "Correction" then put the correct name in there?
Secondly, I tagged marquette in the fully separate paragraph to address him specifically.
Lastly, if you were going to respond to anything I said, it should have been about duckduck go as the second paragraph was not for you.
I did not attack you, so I won't take your questions or suggestion personally. There are trolls on this site that deserve that love more than me. As a side note, renaming the bases is idiotic and shows a complete lack of understanding of history by those looking to destroy statutes, hallmarks, and renaming anything.
