Old Trooper sends a link from the Washington Examiner<\/a> in which they report that the FBI has issued a report which accuses the US military of harboring street gang members. TSO and I agree that this report has SPLC’s fingerprints all over it – like their wild goose chase for Neo Nazis<\/a> in the military a few years back.<\/p>\n

“Gang infiltration of the military continues to pose a significant criminal threat, as members of at least 53 gangs have been identified on both domestic and international military installations,” the report says, resulting in American gang graffiti in Iraq, among other things.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Now, i don’t see the benefit to gangmembers joining the military for nefarious reasons. yeah, you’ll learn the skill of hitting a man-sized target at 300+ meters with iron sights, but most gang wars don’t include those ranges. And i really don’t think gangsters have what it takes to stick out training for even eight weeks just to learn all of the non=warrior related stuff to make it that far. I’ve yet to see the Crios and Bloods conduct street D&C march-offs.<\/p>\n

So, in their report, the FBI says “well, maybe not all gang members who join the military are bad per se<\/strong> (or per say<\/strong> for the more illiterate among you, my dear readers)”;<\/p>\n

And gang member enlistment doesn’t require a sinister intention. “Many street gang members join the military to escape the gang lifestyle,” says the FBI, while others join at the behest of a court “as an alternative to incarceration.” <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So how many are we talking about here? How many are good gang members and how many are bad gang members? In fact how many gang members are in the military? The article doesn’t say…they just leave it up to the readers to paint the entire military with a broad brush.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
