“ Me too, makes me wonder if they are really vets and not just some soy boys Antifa dressed up like little soldiers.”

I’m guessing that not many are actually vets.

Maybe not, but I was 20 years in the USAF. I ran into a few woke MOFOs. I suspect a few may be, but not many.

When I was infantry, you wouldn’t find guys who would do this. When you started looking at the wog (without guts) trades, there were a lot of liberals. Wog trades were pretty much anything not infantry or combat engineers.

Wogs. (without guts), there are a lot in the uniform. They join for the secure pay cheque and to do as little as possible and get paid as much as possible. Otherwise known as Maritimers. There are a few ok ones from there, but the majority are brainwashed liberal voters, and useless eaters.

Yeh, if any are arrested the feds will be able to find out if they’re vets or not. Doubt that they’ll make their findings public though. What I’m most interested in though is WHO’s funding these people? Takes a lot of money to keep such a large group of people in food, clothing, shelter, and paycheck. Cut of the head of the snake to kill the snake...

Did anyone watch that series, “iZombie”? I know that was Seattle, but I suggest walling it off and leaving them to deal with themselves with minimal assistance. No assistance ideally, but they are still Americans. I guess.

Lots of communists in the world, financing them.

It is nauseating isn’t it? But on the bright side you are living through and witnessing first hand the collapse of the United State’s of America...probably one of history’s most catastrophic events. Right up there with the fall of the Roman Empire.

To me, the destruction of the country’s statuary is the penultimate chapter in the story of America. There has been no meaningful resistance and the various governments involved have no spine and/or are complicit.

Unless there is Divine Intervention in the form of a Hurricane Katrina of lead I am not sanguine.

Noticed some 'boy's in that line up and some that appeared to have just changed shirts from their black ANTIFA uniforms. And the one that said "“I am an American patriot. I might have to put a big question mark on that comment. How can one make that claim all the while support breaking the nations laws that you once swore an oath to protect and defend against all enemies foreign and domestic. That's my definition of being a patriot.

Probably have dishonorable discharges. Veterans don’t get veteran license tags unless they are honorably discharged, no general or dishonorable discharges allowed.

If you count every American that served in the US armed services from the time Lee Harvey Oswald enlisted to the time John McVeigh was discharged, how many millions of vetrans do you think that might be? Does that make LHO & JM statistically irrelevant?
Just saying.

They’re all actors. None of them ever to the Oath. The Mothers and the Fathers, actors too. They’ve has to bus them in to get the numbers.
I’d be very suprised if Trump and his boys don’t know exeactly the who, what, when, where, why, and exactly who is funding this.

I have never trusted Veterans or LEOs who Vote Democrat. It's like they never took their Oath seriously.

Yes, I am both retired Army and prior LEO.

The designation of Veteran is simply anybody that serves 180 days of continuous active duty. The status of veteran is just a designation used to determine eligibility for benefits. The designation is misunderstood and often abused.

When I went through Boot Camp we had individuals who really tried but physically they could not be Marines. Occasionally, the Corps would keep a recruit in Boot Camp for the maximum of 180 days, to give them a chance to make it. If they failed they were given a General Discharges. However, they were given veterans status and eligible for State and Federal VA Benefits. Guard and Reserve are treated differently, they must have a combined total of 180 days of active duty not including drill weekends over a set period of time. During the last war we would assign some Reservists to Administrative duties if they did not complete the continuous 180 days. They were eligible for Federal Benefits but their States had a strict 180 day continuous rule. Disclaimer, my knowledge of the rules is long past the "best if used by date" so things may have changed and often do. But as far as I know the 180 days is still a rule.

There are a lot of “veterans” out there who were less then stellar Marines, Sailors, Soldiers or Airman. There are some "veterans" who were discharged on General Discharges for the Good or Under Less then Honorable Conditions who still claim veterans status, simply because they served. Until you see members of the VFW or other service related organizations marching with ANTIFA, take the claim to Veterans Status with a grain of salt.

Traitorous Benedict Arnold was a vet.

Anti-Patriots. I’d they were real patriots, they wouldn’t be engaged in Marxist lawlessness.
