Summary

Veterans on Patrol, a far-right militia, believes Hurricane Helene was caused by a government weather weapon and plans to destroy it.

The group’s founder, Michael Meyer, has threatened the US military and accused them of spraying poisons on the American people.

VOP’s activities, rooted in anti-government and anti-immigrant beliefs, have drawn criticism from law enforcement and advocacy groups.

    Sorry to be that guy, but the hockey mask was Jason Vorhees. Michael Meyers wore the Captain Kirk mask.

      Huh. Shows how much of a horror movie fan I am. Thanks for the correction.
