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....
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.
I suppose now I have to be scared that my two sons, who are honorably serving their country in Iraq and Afghanistan, will become right-wing terrorists when they come home. And the Dimocrats accuse conservatives of profiling!
Our soldiers are offering their lives in service to the United States of America. Should they come home from war to be distrusted and viewed with suspicion by their own government? What's next? Are the "left-wing extremists" going to start calling them baby-killers and spitting on them in the streets, as they did to the Vietnam vets 40 years ago?
These men and women who are putting their lives on the line for us deserve our full respect, honor, and gratitude. They do NOT deserve to be treated like potential hate-mongerers or terrorists.
