Since military benefits are lost on day 61 of a criminal conviction, will we finally see the retired and/or separated insurrectionist veterans lose their retirements, GI/9-11 bills, and VA benefits and stop them leeching off a government they wanted to overturn in the first place?

In addition, will we see their respective services follow precedent and subject those retirees to Court Martials, as they are still bound by UCMJ after retirement?

Hey hey, don't be getting after the medical folks :) I'm one, though they weren't kind enough to give me a retirement. I got a whopping check of about $256 dollars per month (until the recent few years), and shoved in the corner to die... The scumbags. I really would be dead if I hadn't gotten my own curative meds from other countries, and been taking veterinary meds. The f****** ********. Ah yes, thinking of them brings cursing to mind, Lord keep me. I am improving now, incase you're curious ;)

No Capt you are the wrong one. Why were so many police officers injured that day if the attackers were peaceful and had no kind of weapons. I guess the police officers hurt themselves.

Nope, they are relieved from duty. So, these traitors will pretty much skate on everything but trespass and stopping congress from doing is job. We all saw what the GOP senate did--TWICE! The only thing I feel they deserve is a long walk on a short plank!!

If you had seen or was watching the TV when he told the crowed what to do, then I shouldn't have to repeat it. As for being a MSgt, at least I was smart enough to make it, what's your story?

The benefits they earned through service? Even those who are veterans who incarcerated get their benefits back after they are out of prison.

Unless you were Irish, Jews, or a minority, when you came to this country and even other countries who were treated as slaves and servants, how are you a victim. Are you deprived of anything? Can you live anywhere you can afford to live, go to any school, belong to any club, not have to have a degree to get hired for jobs that white only have a high school diploma, most of the time the first to be fired or laid off. Do you get harassed by the police, or pulled over for no real reason and hopefully not shot because of the color of your skin, or the way you may respond and the officer doesn't like it. The list goes on and on. Did someone rob you? Please SSG, what are you a victim of except for self pity.

Sorry, accidentally sent incomplete message. Many conservatives believe there was significant fraud in the 2020 election, we need this investigated to ensure our voting processes are secure. This was done for Russian collusion and the Muller investigation found there was no collusion; Steele dossier was pure fiction. It insunfortunate that so many liberals still claim Russian collusion.

This thread is apparantly full of people who fully support the storming of the federal government in opposition to the democratic process.

Tons of references trying to draw parallels to other protests that had no relation to the continued legitimacy of our country.

You can be opposed to other protests/riots for whatever your reason is. But you 100% cannot both support America as the democratic country it was founded to be and support what happened on January 6th.

You cannot support any of the bullshit that has plagued our cities for the last 4 years and claim you support America. But the hard facts are, no one has been charged with insurrection, so the OP is biased, and bought into the narrative of the democrat party.

Multiple people died after an armed mob attempted to gain access to congress with the stated intent of opposing the election and many calling for harm/death of elected officials who had to barricade themselves in. If you don't like the term "insurrection" I don't really care, you can call it what you want. The point is the same, you can't support what happened then and our country at the same time. And it is literally incomparable to the other issues people are referring to.

Amen Capt McVeigh you can say whatever you want, these people on here and else where have made up their minds, nothing we can say can change their thinking. They are followers, not capable of rationalizing for themselves. It's truly a shame people can be brain washed so easily fooled and led down the dark path to destruction.

I think my favorite part of this thread is how the DOD says it's hard to root out extremists in the military, but meanwhile you can easily come on this thread and easily identify tons of extremists sympathizing with the domestic terrorists who attempted coup at the capital.

Hey DOD, I found a bunch for you!

SGT (Join to see) - when is the most impactful time to disrupt something you disagree with? Nothing more sinister happened then a riot that got a bit rowdy and cost a woman her life for being stupid. The rioters had no weapons other then cell phones - if you want to call that an insurrection - then all I can say is you have led an extremely privileged and sheltered life. But hey, what can you expect from a citizen that lives in the most privileged and entitled country, along with a youth population that believes that the world should cater to their whims.

SSG Robert Perrotto they tried to stop the peaceful transfer of power, and they succeeded until the early morning hours of the 7th! That's a domestic terrorist act against every American! They should be executed, then maybe it won't happen again.

These idiots were protesting what they believed to be a tainted and fraud riddled election, they had no real intention of overthrowing the government. The oppportunity presented itself, and many just went inside to take selfies and make social statements. seriously man, if you were going to overthrow the government, don't you think a few hundred rifles would have been present.

There were no insurrectionists period. The TERRORISTS, the demoncrats are the ones that should be losing everything for their treason and terrorism. They paid for the shit that happened and its them naming things WRONGLY just like they did on covid and their High treason there. NO Vet should be losing anything period. Demoncrats in office and BLM and ANTIFA are the ones that should be convicted of theie High Treason with staffs and Terrorism and HATE Crimes.

I have had a knife pulled on me buddy growing up and didn't back down and had a gang surround me at the end of lunch period cause they found out my dads job was Soldier and I didn't back down and grabbed that piss ant that is a lot like u by the throat and was so tired of the crap I put everything I could into ripping out his throat. It took him a min. to get out of my grip. So go back to Prek and start over u uneducated kid. I can tell u with almost complete certainty that I have more college than u have CLAIMED education. And that my scores on the ASVAB were heads and tails above anything u would have ever dreamed. And that I turned down more stuff because of those scores than u every had opportunity to even wish for. And that I did more from my frosh year in HS to my Sr. year in HS than u have done in ur LIFE.
