So, you thought we were full of it... Thought "There's no way that Americans will be treated like another country".... This video tells how 20,000 military troops will be deployed into the U.S. to 'watch over civilians', the next step will be to give them 'Police Powers'

4. If things don't improve soon
They are going to need a lot more than 20,000 troops. This is Tammany Hall's "hiring half of the poor to suppress the other half," thing in Gang's of New York. Might have wrong person, but it was in the movie.

3. I saw a convoy going south on I540
when I was coming home last night. There were about 30 vehicles. I have no idea if this is normal troop movement and they were on the way to be shipped off or what. They were all sand colored.

5. "We must run tell the king," said Chicken Little. "The sky is falling!"
I saw about 30 or 40 huge trucks with tanks followed by dozens of armored troop carriers on I35. As I recall that was in 1964 so I'm sure it's already too late to stop the military takeover of the country.

6. This was likely National Guard or Army Reserve on the
way to summer camp. You can see convoys on I-69 all the time, during the summer, headed north to Grayling, Mi or south to Camp Attibury in Indiana.

9. I agree. My thought was desert
maneuvers and they could have been on their way to Texas.

Conspiracy theories are all well and good until you start to take them seriously.

A new predator drone will begin flying over the Texas-Mexico border beginning on Wednesday, “providing critical aerial assistance to personnel on the ground,” the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced on Monday.

The Department of Homeland Security has added a new predator drone to its surveillance capabilities along the country’s southwest border, with flights from the new drone set to begin September 1, according to a department statement released on Monday.

Predator Drone Now Patrols U.S./Canadian Border

http://blogs.seattleweekly.com/dailyweekly/2011/01/predator_drone_now_patrols_usc.php


Don't worry about the small, white aircraft flying around the U.S./Canadian border. It's just an unmanned predator drone. You know--the same robot aircraft that are currently raining death upon our enemies in Afghanistan and Pakistan?

The Digital Journal reported yesterday on the newest addition to the Pacific Northwest's (and the Midwest's) friendly skies.

According to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency website, the craft will be patrolling a 900-mile stretch of border from the "Lake-of-the-Woods region of Minnesota to the vicinity of Spokane, Washington."

12. The police already have "powers" to
come into our homes without a warrant and without notice. I believe this was enacted from the Bush years but has not been repealed by theObama administration. Remember, Halliburton built "holding cells" in every state. Wonder what they were Really meant for? Some activists were Afraid to protest, although my husband and I did get enough courage to protest Rumsfeld in Chapel Hill. We held a banner that asked "Where Our Civil Rights", and thankful i it did appear in Chapel News.:scared: :scared: :grr: :thumbsdown:

15. I think Americans would want the government to intervene and bring
order if there were mobs in the streets.

I remember the LA riots. Order can be brought without horrible repression.
