Our military bases wouldn’t be so dangerous if the FBI Syphilis carriers were not there !
When i tell you military personnel get away w complete crimes against humanity everyday. ESPECIALLY internationally. Teaching in the middle east… the advice i got was… dont talk to military guys…. i ended up w an american air force vet, contracted to a defence firm to surveillance drones. I thought since hes not active duty, not on base never been to war, retired since 2018 due to injury hes not a problem. I didnt realize the military mentality is the problem..not just whether he was using me for BAH or not..as i was warned..this dude had his own ish and was retired so i thought it was ok. This fool from brooklyn drugged me. Idk what happened during that time. But the armed forces is a strange bunch. And ive done my best to get him fired.
Same in networking its a wide problem.
There’s no longer a reason to maintain ‘convening authorities’, or legal authority, with Commanders. This was necessary in the pre-modern world where commanders needed to keep order and discipline among conscripted troops in far flung places in a time where communicating with higher ups took weeks to months. Now, it’s easy to bring the accused in front of professional investigators, prosecutors, judges, and independent juries.
There is no longer a reason to allow Commanders, with no legal experience, to play District Attorney.
Yup, this is all true, if not, worse.. and chain of command hides it under the fucking rug. That base isn’t a base, its the block cause its full of gangsters.
