The FBI has released a new gang assessment announcing that there are 1.4 million gang members in the US, a 40 percent increase since 2009, and that many of these members are getting inside the military (via Stars and Stripes).

Hey, if we’re going to use our military to terrorize other countries’ citizens, then why not get them off our streets? Forty percent increase. This is not good news.
The FBI points out that many gangs, especially the bikers, actively recruit members with military training and advise young members with no criminal record to join the service for weapon access and combat experience.
Oh. The revolving door of ganging. This is not good news.
Perhaps the police who are knocking heads, pepper-spraying and arresting Occupiers could be better used to protect us from street gangs. But like George W’s attack on Iraq, the Occupiers are an easier target.
...and hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
