DU military families

I saw a post about JROTC, which made curious.



How many people have multiple generations that served in the military.

Doesn’t have to be consecutively.

Mexico depicts Philadelphia street scenes in anti-drug ads

“The Mexican government is using video of homeless people and open-air drug users in Philadelphia’s embattled Kensington neighborhood in a national ad campaign to try to scare young people away from drugs”


“The spots never identify the city or neighborhood shown. But just how or why the Mexican government decided to use street scenes from the U.S. to scare Mexicans — who have their own drug problems — is not clear. Critics say the ads recycle scare tactics about drugs rather than offer help or treatment.”

I could not read the entire article. So I don’t now if they let the city know .

Man arrested for allegedly trying to establish ISIS training center in New Mexico

A New Mexico man was arrested on Friday after he allegedly tried to create an ISIS training center in the state, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).

A DOJ release states that a federal grand jury indicted 45-year-old Herman Wilson, also known as Bilal Mu’Min Abdullah, on Tuesday on charges that he attempted to provide material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization and attempted to obstruct, influence and impede at least one official proceeding.

More warnings from Memphis PD

https://twitter.com/mem_policedept/status/1568025002762534913?s=21

One of videos is posted below that tweet. He’s saying, “White folks fixin’ to not like black people,” the man says in the posting. “They’re fixin’ to be marching by the riverside, ‘White Lives Matter,’ he adds. “He already shot an old white man. I’m fixin’ to shoot a white old lady.”

If you have family there, I give a heads up. Not to cancel anything but just pay attention to what’s going on .
