  1. Yes, a REAL PROBLEM. My x husband got out of Army and went to work as a policeman in a big city. He was not right wing until then, certainly not far right. He is now. The police department he works for has a leadership who participate in reenactments of Civil War battles, as Confederates, and now they actually reenact WWII, Nazi themed events. They encourage the men and women in their department to participate in these activities as well. I have seen pictures and I am shocked... posing in full SS Officer uniforms, standing in front of the Swastika. This radicalization happened AFTER he left military and went to work in a police department. Police departments are fraternities. Not enough oversight / transparancy. For years, I assumed police departments in the US were controlled by an organization with federal oversight. They are not, not really. Its a separate club and amounts to an army of radicalized terrorists in many places. I do believe there are many good men and women in law enforcement, but still, far right radicalization is a WIDESPREAD problem. It is extremely concerning, especially now. I remember our enemies...Russia and China, who vowed to take our country down, from within. I can see now how infiltration the police departments and our military was / is part of that plan. So many things are not as we were taught or thought. How can we fix this???
