FBI reports Juggalos/ICP gangs infiltrating US Military

Gang members have been signing up with the United States Armed Forces, posing a "significant criminal threat" to law enforcement, according to a report by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

"Gang infiltration of the military continues to pose a significant criminal threat, as members of at least 53 gangs have been identified on both domestic and international military installations," the report says, resulting in American gang graffiti in Iraq, among other things.

Every branch of the military contains some gang members, the FBI reported, but most gang members join the Army, the Army Reserves, and the U.S. National Guard. And gang member enlistment doesn't require a sinister intention. "Many street gang members join the military to escape the gang lifestyle," says the FBI, while others join at the behest of a court "as an alternative to incarceration."

But the military sometimes proves a bad environment for gang members, who "often revert back to their gang associations once they encounter other gang members in the military."

Numerous U.S. gangs, according to the report, "advise members without criminal records to join the military for necessary weapons and combat training." Military deployments, in the event, end up placing gang members alongside other members of the armed forces on active duty.

Gang membership in the U.S. military has resulted in "incidents of weapons theft and trafficking," the FBI warns, which "may have a negative impact on public safety or pose a threat to law enforcement officials."

You can see a list of gangs affiliated with branches of the military below. For reference, OMG stands for "Outlaw Motorcycle Gang."

It's hilarious

Told ya they're a threat to national security.

they're a bunch of violent scumbags with a group mentality, they are a gang.

Violent in that they love creampies and throw them at one another?

Occasionally seen drinking red pop and shoving vending machines when they don't dispense it?

But I thought the worst of them were just bullies. Some of them are genuine gangs? Like as in they're hoodlums out for blood and havoc? Fucking how does that work.

Even so, I still find this damn funny.

seriously, they aren't considered a gang by the fbi for shits and giggles.

tell one with tats and shit that ICP is a terrible music group. I bet quite a bit they won't just say "I disagree but respect your opinion good sir."

The government's always right.

lol probably not. I think I've ever only met one Juggalo though.

Though it's a shame a lot of gangs don't stick to busting up each other and cops for the most part. The bloods and crypts where I'm from really didn't care about the average white or black dude as long as they weren't causing trouble or wearing the rival's colors in their territory.

It might be a bit more serious, if the FBI is getting involved as they are. Think less school yard bully gangs (the type who just spray paint everywhere and claim to beat you up if you try to leave), and more Mafia type gangs where they specialize more in organized crime and the police can't even get into without blazing up a major gunfight.

Or everyone could just be in an uproar about graffiti on the walls, Iunno.

ICP actively promotes open ended violence lol. Not just being a hood rat.

Uneducated folks with group-think in the military? I don't believe it.

Seriously fuck you guys. You guys know nothing about the juggalo lifestyle. If you were here right now I'd beat the fuck out of you with a tire iron.

This is the only time that stupid "Sent from my iPad" thing that gets put on all your posts actually made me laugh.
