#2

Seriously think about the stupidity of doing this.

Training and Arming a group of ILLEGAL male foreigners, of military age already here in the USA, that do not see the USA as their home country.

A group that already outnumbers the current "New Normal" US DOD Armed forces at about 6 to 1?

#3 The Chinese immigrant thing is just a bit too Trojan Horse for me.

#4 Florida law allowing residents to stand their ground against ‘crack bears’ is one step closer to reality

#5 I'm sure their English is good enough to not be a safety problem let alone a command, control, and operational issue. [do I need to put a /sarc on that?]

If they're unwilling to put up with following the law on legally entering the country, what makes you think they'll follow military law and discipline?

#6 So, like, what are they going to do? Of course, that assumes these illegals would want to go that route in the first place.

That's gonna be a helluva backlog with NACIs.

#7 what are they going to do?

Mess hall stewards, cooks & cleaners, motor pool, base taxis, long haul logistics, barracks cleaning, warehouse workers, interpreters, low end clerical, ...

#8 ...ah, taking the jobs the local civilians have been doing for the last 30 years.

#9 If there were no amigos in Georgia, housing construction would quickly grind to a halt.

You do know where they vacation in the off-seasons of course.

#10 I know that's about all they CAN do, but there's only so many lines on the TDA for those kinds of jobs. But, the military can be quite inventive. DoD has never passed an audit, so this shouldn't be a big problem in the big scheme of things.

#11 ..but they do have to face a personnel audit annually. Their personnel strength is limited by law and its something that gets attention every fiscal year. They shifted a lot of those jobs to civilian contractors in order to keep the combat strength as high as possible.

#12 How many MS-13 gangsters are already getting military training on our dime? I'd bet the number is not zero.

#13 Does the US military still have a tattoo policy?

#14 ...anything that is traditionally patriotic is consider domestic terrorism. Other than that....

#15 Ref #13: I think them daze is over DDM. Tats may now be a requirement for enlistment.

#16 Consider this however, the US Army is 21% black and 18% Hispanic, 5% Asian. Almost one half of the Army considers itself a racial minority, at a time in our history when the political left has stoked the simmering of racial disharmony.
