Odd. I don’t belong to any because the closest vet group to me is VFW. They sent me some literature. Turns out that since I served from 77-81, and no one shot at me, they don’t want me.
Screw ‘em.
So, twenty people out of that crowd participated in “riots”. Are they talking about them?
This is a joke as veteran’s groups are hard pressed for membership. Many around here, such as the American Legion and the V.F.W., alternate their activities because neither has the membership to do much on their own.
VFW WAS in my will-that’s gonna change
Same here . . . some of them might have been set up as purposeful $$$ scams anyway. I donate to Veteran’s organizations in honor/memory of my parents who both were WWII Veterans. I hope someone has already done their homework for us. PS If Veteran members get expelled I hope they sue for reimbursement for all the years they paid membership dues.
Also, a guy gets almost killed serving his country, the disabled American veterans is going to kick him out because he didn't follow their political program? What the heck was he fighting for? Was this rule extended for those that participated in antifa or BLM riots, or is it only for people of one political persuasion?
So Democrats can start Armed rebellions against America, creating their own Autonomous Republics, but Conservatives cannot protest after being waved into the capital? Who said life’s not fair?
A year later the VA came back and approved my application. The DAV sent me letter patting themselves on the back for assisting me with my application to the VA and getting approval. Really!? Some of their offices are good for what I hear, but not all. The State Office was supposed to review the request before it went in, that obviously never happened.
What is this group?
Veterans against Violence?
Veterans for Make Love Not War?
Please don’t hurt me Vets?
Surrender Monkeys R Us?
Sorry I ever paid for a lifetime membership
Screw um.
I agree with the company that said our politicians (lawmakers)should be not be exempt from being exposed to the same dangers that citizens face in cities through out the country (paraphrased).
Glad I never joined any of them.
Funny, nothing was said about those vets in hats who sat right behind, and clapped for, obama!!
Soon the Qtards will be denouncing DAV and VFW.
Count on it.
Donald J Trump has done more in 4 years to improve the lives of disabled vets than any other President in my lifetime. The least Whitehead and Hunter could have done was to acknowledge Trump’s contributions before engaging in self-aggrandizing virtue signaling. Not to mention establishing legitimacy by polling the membership prior to making public threats.
Phony Soros Veterans Groups Plan to Expel Any Members Who Took Part in Capitol Riot
The truth is in order to go into the Capitol Building and the White House you have to contact your Congressman 2 to 3 months in advance and you have to request a ticket WITH a specific time on it and you can only go through the door at the particular time that is stamped on the ticket.
So, the Capitol police bear some responsibility for what happened. They let people in when they shouldn't have.
Apparently I’m in the DAV, even though I didn’t join.
When I need help with something, I call the WWP. They do more for younger vets than anyone I know. They are great!
“...Todd Hunter, a DAV spokesman, said... the DAV had no indications as yet that any of its members had participated, but the organization felt compelled to make it known that “here’s where we stand.”
“We wanted to make it known as an organization that we will not have any members who are insurrectionists,” Hunter said....”

Jeez, he felt COMPELLED TO VIRTUE SIGNAL. Screw the DAV if they spend our donations on likely highly paid VIRTUAL SIGNALERS such as this character. Get some other sucker to cover their overhead.
