I knew it; I said all along that you should never, ever trust a man or woman who wears BDU’s and swore an oath to protect and defended the Constitution.
(For the uninitiated, that statement is of course dripping in sarcasm)
Today, April 16, 2009 , Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano apologized to veterans after a report issued by her department said troops returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were at risk for being recruited by rightwing extremists. I use the term “apologized” very loosely. What she actually said was “To the extent veterans read it as an accusation ... an apology is owed.” Oh, okay, well if you were just simply offended by it I guess you can just go to hell.
Is this woman inhaling something?
The Department of Homeland Security is now hinting that returning vets might be a security risk because they are trained soldiers. Following that logic, I guess DHS Secretary Napolitano might potentially be a prostitute, I think she has the equipment.
That might have sounded a little harsh, but I have a huge problem with my government slighting our military veterans.
Here is what the report "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment," said:
(U//FOUO) The possible passage of new restrictions on firearms and the return of military veterans facing significant challenges reintegrating into their communities could lead to the potential emergence of terrorist groups or lone wolf extremists capable of carrying out violent attacks.
(U//FOUO) Proposed imposition of firearms restrictions and weapons bans likely would attract new members into the ranks of rightwing extremist groups, as well as potentially spur some of them to begin planning and training for violence against the government. The high volume of purchases and stockpiling of weapons and ammunition by rightwing extremists in anticipation of restrictions and bans in some parts of the country continue to be a primary concern to law enforcement.
(U//FOUO) Returning veterans possess combat skills and experience that are attractive to rightwing extremists. DHS/I&A is concerned that rightwing extremists will attempt to recruit and radicalize returning veterans in order to boost their violent capabilities.
And here is the crazy thing, who do they identify? No one. Just a vague commentary in which they paint dissenting opinions with a very wide brush and lump them all into a group called Rightwing Extremists.
So, if you happen to be against illegal immigration, or you are against the way the government is handling the current financial crisis, or if you are a legal gun owner, or if you are or heaven forbid, ever served your country honorably as a member of the United States military…. You might just be a "rightwing extremist."
