Do you believe that "Radicalized Military Vets" are a true threat to the Nation?

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?

You have to remember a few presidents ago all formal military were potential home grown terrorists so I don't have to much fath that this is true or needs to be worried about.

Yup! And having their Inside-the-Beltway FBI Administrators putting out memos that veterans, in general, needed to be monitored and potentially disarmed.

I agree. I think if a study was done; it would find that Vets in general are less likely to participate in shenanigans like this.
My question would be; if you think Veterans are mostly conservative (of whatever flavor). Do you think they joined that way or did they become that way while serving? Then, if Service to our Nation is SO laudable and Service Members are great people....how did they transition to terrorist after service?
Whether they because conservative during Service or not; Serving made them Great Americans? Then being conservative can't be that bad and maybe have to ask what takes them from Great Americans to terrorists.......if you believe that garbage.....just a thought.

Sir, I think that you just hit upon the crux of this mantra that is being pushed. Not all veterans, but many, tend to lean conservative. They see a greater good than their own comfort and safety. By its very nature, many of those kinds of individuals may gravitate toward the Combat Arms. The in-power Progressives are well-aware of this, and are the same people who pushed to have late mail-in ballots from Overseas Service Members thrown out, while allowing for all sorts of improprieties in mail-in ballots from Chicago or New York, because "....No One Should Be Disenfranchised....".

No, I believe the Left is just trying to gaslight as per usual. Majority Veterans I have met are All for Liberties, and freedoms that the Constitution gives us. Sure, we would fight to ensure that the Constitution is upheld. The Soldiers Creed comes to mind.

Good succinct answer. "Project on your enemies, those things that YOU are doing", (right out of "Rules for Radicals"). Isn't it interesting that, with ALL of the improprieties that Hillary Clinton did, with spreading disinformation, having an illegal computer with classified information, and destroying phones containing data and evidence, the Trump Administration did NOTHING to prosecute her after the election, but the party that calls Trump a Nazi is doing Everything that they can to imprison their opposition.

MSG Lonnie Averkamp - Politicians make promises they can't keep. I'm not sure there is a single one without skeletons in his/her closet. I wish that people would stop voting based on party, and start voting based on policy. Somewhere, someone is very happy with the state of things. The United states is Not very United, and they are waiting for the moment of Saturation to Strike. God help us All.

I was in the Army for 4 years. I was in the Navy Reserves for three. I met one soldier who held racist views. However, I think this was the result of his ignorant backwoods upbringing rather than his overarching political views. He got in trouble for saying some inappropriate things, but he learned to change or shut up. In the Navy, I met a guy who was pretty scary. He had some authoritarian and neo Nazi views. He was a Marine and later a SEAL. He got put out for some reason. Most of the other guys I met were Born Again Christians who wanted to be Cops, or they were befuddled hippies who couldn't figure out another way to make a living. I remember in Basic Training the extensive discussion on how we were loyal to the constitution and not to any one person or party. So, I guess, no.

Good job of bringing a lot of information into the mix, to form your conclusion.

This is why I avoid sites like the Daily Bestiality. In fact, I ignore all news now and only read newsletters from my city and county as I know they will affect me directly. News since the advent of the 24 hour news cycle pioneered by the communist news network (cnn) has been sensationalistic and only propaganda to promote an agenda whether it be politics or advertising revenue.

Radicalized military veterans is subjective; and is being used by the leftist activists to label veterans. Which paints all veterans in a RED warning light that can be used by the same activists and their government friends to deny those veterans access ti their rights, for any reason they choose!

We had them when I served, (1981-2001). So what. I fought to protect everyone's right to think and feel however they choose. That is why this is the land of the free. I may not like it, but they have a right to it.

Sergeant Major, This article was written back in 2023, when the Press was pushing the narrative that there was a disproportionate ration of "radical conservatives" in the military. The Pentagon released a finding that the ratio in the military does not, significantly, differ from the nation, as a whole. The problem is that many of the elitists who pull the strings believe that anyone who is not a cheerleader for any trendy woke program is a Neanderthal and a threat. If there were recordings of the Airborne Songs that we did around the Track in 1971, my retirement papers would read "E-1".

What was "Right" 30 years ago is wrong today. What was wrong 30 years ago is right today.
The war on drugs such as pot is now legalized.
Hating this country is now the new way colleges are telling the brain-dead students.
Running off to Canada during the Vietnam "conflict" to avoid the draft was wrong, allowing these cowards back into the USA is "right."
Giving aid to invaders who sneak into America waving flags of other countries was called an invasion now it is called asylum seekers.
Defund the police is right and allowing savages to enter a store and smash windows and grab everything in sight is ok according to libertards.
A man following a little girl into the rest room is ok if he says he feels he is a woman.
Males can compete in womans sports taking away scholarships that would normally be given to "birthing people."
The new military asks the recruits if they are happy?

My oath has not expired. We have domestic enemies in charge (via a selection - not an election) and at some point the politicians we did vote in have to address the elephant in the room. The Founders gave us the 2A for a reason. WHEN are we going to deploy it? Yep, call me whatever you want. I was in DC on J6 and just for being there (not on Capitol grounds) I was forced into an FB-eye interview. I call BS. I'm a deplorable Christian Patriot, unjabbed, white, heterosexual, alpha MALE with a Biblical Worldview. GET OVER IT! Repent or die lost, you heathens! [John 3:3]
