The New Politically Correct DOD Training Manual

Adan Salazar at Infowars reports that the new and improved Department of Defense considers patriots, constitutionalists and the Founding Fathers to be “extremists” who should be removed from polite society, or at least watched very, very closely. But of course they are already doing that.

Judicial Watch, a group that I support whole-heartedly, regularly digs up this kind of stuff through Freedom of Information Act requests and the results are not exactly inspiring if you value what the country has traditionally been. There are a lot of disturbing things to be found in this manual, which has the fingerprints of the left all over it. Read some of it yourself and then remember that this is brought to you by the same leftists and progressives who are using the NSA to spy on you and the IRS to bully you.

Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch recently obtained a Department of Defense training manual which lists people who embrace “individual liberties” and honor “states’ rights,” among other characteristics, as potential “extremists” who are likely to be members of “hate groups.”

Marked “for training purposes only,” the documents, obtained Thursday through a Freedom of Information Act request submitted in April, include PowerPoint slides and lesson plans, among which is a January 2013 Air Force “student guide” distributed by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute simply entitled “Extremism.”

Judicial Watch’s FOIA request asked for “Any and all records concerning, regarding, or related to the preparation and presentation of training materials on hate groups or hate crimes distributed or used by the Air Force.”

As the group notes, “The document defines extremists as ‘a person who advocates the use of force or violence; advocates supremacist causes based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, or national origin; or otherwise engages to illegally deprive individuals or groups of their civil rights.’”

The manual goes on to bar military personnel from “active participation” in such extremist organization activities as “publicly demonstrating,” “rallying,” “fundraising” and “organizing,” basically denying active-duty military from exercising the rights they so ardently fight to defend.

It begins its introduction of a section titled, “Extremist ideologies,” by describing the American colonists who sought independence from British rule as a historical example of extremism.
