More food for horrified imaginative excursions from the US Military

Read this fun piece about a potential gang war in the Army. This would make a great comic book series or HBO Drama or theme album by Johnny Cash and Radiohead, but will probably end up as a movie with Nick Cage.

My favorite bit:

The executive director of the National Major Gangs Task Force, Edward Cohn, said those numbers do not come as a shock. "People are initially surprised that there are gangs in the military, but really it shouldn't be a surprise," he said. "For somebody to believe there are no gangs in the military would be very naive."

Mr. Cohn also said some gang members refine their techniques in the Army. "There is a sophistication there," he said.

Reminds me of that scene from Spinal Tap with Martin Short. Not that I can remember the scene, but it reminds me of that. Check the comments, Erik will be along soon to quote the scene for me.

Also new and fun in the US Military are White Supremacists, some of whom are using the valuable training paid for by YOUR TAX MONEY to prepare for some down home ethnic cleansing back Stateside.

Ugh-- I had a great picture of the adorable White Supremacist Pop-Rock duo Prussian Blue, but the images aren't loading onto the blog. But they sure are cute. Click for more White fun here and see the picture, and unlock a whole new world of white power. Not surprisingly, last year's big event went down in Florida. I used to think, back in the old days, that Florida, with its safe, race-blending mix of Cubans, Haitians and Jews, was a haven of good ol' American muttry. Heh. Guess not.

Jesus save us.
