Group warns Congress of racial extremists within military | HamptonRoads.com | PilotOnline.com: Saying that the U.S. military may inadvertently be training 'future domestic terrorists,' the Southern Poverty Law Center on Friday asked Congress to strengthen policies against racial extremists in uniform.
'Evidence continues to mount that current Pentagon policies are inadequate to prevent racial extremists from joining and serving in the armed forces,' Morris Dees, founder of the Montgomery, Ala.-based Southern Poverty Law Center, wrote to the heads of four congressional committees. 'Because the presence of extremists in the armed forces is a serious threat to the safety of the American public, we believe Congressional action is warranted.'"
