Defiant US Soldiers Openly Questioning Why BLM Riots Weren't Treated Like Capitol 'Insurrection'
2021-03-21
[ZERO] Soldiers "from every echelon" of the US military have been openly questioning why last year's violent BLM and Antifa riots weren't treated like the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a comparison which has flown sideways up the ass of the military's top enlisted leader, Chief Master Sergeant Ramón "CZ" Colón-López.

In a Thursday briefing at the Pentagon, Colón-López (CZ) told reporters that some troops have asked "How come you're not looking at the situation that was going on in Seattle prior to that? [Jan. 6 riot]"

"This is coming from every echelon that we're talking to," CZ added.

#12  Maybe they should report that the 'extremist' presentations are racist and creating a hostile work environment.

#11  I think at least those who are on government unearned entitement (welfare) should be inelligible to vote themselves more money.

#10  Why not just genuine taxpayers? I mean the ones who really net pay for things and who own things that are taxed outright.

#9  Only to citizens IRB. The only way to get it was through military or civil service. Military was faster to get it, but you could be a government donk for a decade then get citizenship.

Sounds like a good way to get what we have now but on steroids.

#8  I believe in Heinlein's "star ship troopers" that voting was restricted to combat veterans. Interesting no?

#7  Given all of what the Donks are proudly displaying, I'm really concerned about the stuff they feel they have to keep hidden.

#6  This is how you get a coup, boys. When the rank and file and most junior-to mid officers openly questions those at the top. It is words first, then bullets. I would not advise those officers to visit a combat zone. "Enemy" sniper might take advantage.

#5  If 'soldiers' have questions, it pays to have a look into it.

#4  #2 Methinks a recruiting and retention crisis is looming. Won't need to continue paying Chiefs if there are no Indians.

....Oh, you got that right. Which, given the nutcases we have in charge right now, may be feature, not a bug.
