They need a military willing to take arms against US citizens is the reason they are pushing for more Diversity in the military. A large portion of Blacks, Hispanics, transgenders are more prone to violence (to the point of enjoying it) and lack empathy. I believe those groups would have no problems turning their weapons on American citizens. I don't believe the push is about creating a more diverse military. I believe it is creating a military the government can use against its citizens.
