No mention in the article about ANTIFA, BLM, Occupy or a host of other extremist groups on the left. Are all of those okay?

"This is a poorly written article with glaring mistakes. Here is a paragraph from the article:

The man who allegedly targeted the crowd with his vehicle, James Alex Fields, Jr., was reportedly obsessed with Nazism and German military history and tried (and failed) to join the U.S. Army in 2015. And despite the fact that Fields was barely even a service member"

He did successfully join the Army, she said he tried and failed to join. Blatantly incorrect.
He was not "barely" a service member. Technically he is considered a veteran with over 90 days of service.

Task and Purpose need some writers and editors.

He is not a veteran, you actually need service other than initial entry training to qualify as a veteran, one of the reasons reserve and national guard servicemembers are not veterans until they complete their first service obligation or period of active duty not for training whichever comes first.

I say let the Antifa and Alt Right duke it out in the desert then we can execute the survivors.

There are groups that will send members into the armed services to get training. Once they are out, they are used to train the group. This has been going on for years.

But, my response to the title of this article is simple. If you need a reminder of this, you need not be in ANY branch of service.
