AMERICA'S JAILS AND PRISONS: HOW MANY VETERANS SUFFER THERE?
Ic
EVERY WAR FILLS OUR JAILS AND PRISON WITH OUR HEROES
HOMELESS, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, CRIME, PRISON: AMERICA THANKS ITS VETS
By Gordon Duff STAFF WRITER
Over 30 years ago I was asked to arrange security for Charles
"Chuckie" Coulson, ex-con, ex-lawyer and recently awarded the
Presidential Freedom Medal by President George "Katrina" Bush.
"Chuckie" had just been released from prison for Watergate crimes and
was touring America's prisons to help instill inmates with the values
that put him behind bars. Coulson, in his handmade Italian shoes,
$2000 dollar suit and stage makeup, though a parolee himself,
"deserved" security due a president or rock star.
Prisons and jails, then as now, were run by corrupt bureaucracies with
garbage food, corrupt or brutal guards and gang rape a daily
occurance. It was almost as though the real "veterans preference" was
the criminal justice system. Reviewing case files and trial
transcripts showed a combination of violent criminals and victims of a
corrupt legal system capable of jailing anyone for anything any time.
Vets seems to be a high profile target. We have no reason to believe
any of this has changed whatsoever.

Special Report: Selling Patriotism at Tax Payer expense to buy
Patriotic Promotional Trinkets
To the point exactly how did our troops and military families benefit
or did they see any reward in how patriotism became a commercial
commodity that could be bought and sold, freedom can be quite
expensive, if it has to be sold. Our troops and military families have
paid a heavy price for our patriotism and we should never be the choir
that is preached to?
This is the continuation of an in-depth, multi-post expose on what the
Department of Defense Inspector General found distasteful about
America Supports You.mil operations, fraud, waste, and abuse of tax
payer dollars.

Well, if our heroes are criminals, perhaps it's time to find new heroes. Or, perchance,
stop admitting felons and folks who can't be bothered to graduate into the military. (Just
a thought.)
