G-Fist]Still nobody can give me a reasonable argument as to why we need helicopter drills firing machine gun blanks over a heavily populated city, why local police need MRAP's and other military gear or why we need local police instilled with the military mindset and tactics. Because all of those things are happening.
The real issue is that the state is distributing information and threat assessments to local PD and other government agencies about the threat of "right-wing extremists." Now they do this for Eco-terrorists who are liberals as well but the disturbing part about their focus on the right-wing portion is that they label the upside down flag and the "don't tread on me" jack as extremist paraphernalia. Which it is not and has historical meaning. The fact is a majority of even current military have no idea what the upside down flag means.
They include in these reports people who know their rights and those who believe in the constitution as well. The irony is that the people these memos and briefs are meant for took the same oath that the vets and constitutionalists in most cases took, the "right-wing extremists and veterans." So its oath keepers being warned about other oath keepers.
I didn't buy into anything hook line and sinker.. I can plainly see that the aforementioned is happening. Just because you put your head in the sand and wish it all away doesn't make it so.
