Private Military on US Soil

[freemen2005]

There is a huge variety of police and military presence on the ground. That's to be expected. But the large number of private security forces is disturbing, specifically those operating through Blackwater. Even leaving aside the legal and political questions of what it means to have fully-armed, American-funded mercenaries operating as security against American citizens, it should also be noted, that of all the security forces on the ground, the Blackwater 'troops' were by far the biggest dicks.

2. Write to politicians. Demand they be fired or disarmed immediately.

It's the best we can do. I have asked my politicians who hired Blackwater. So far, only Blackwater claims to have been hired by Homeland Security. I'd like to know.

Either way, they must be fired or disarmed immediately.

* just allows it and people just look the other way.
