the rise in crime is going up all over the US so this my be happining in Atl. soon cops and fire are on fur-lows murders left and right would this be a way for TPTB to get the people to turn on there selves and in turn instate total control this would be something to watch closely it could be coming to a town near you

This is dire news for me.. I live in PA!

Second Line... damnit! Are they doing this right here right now!? I'm ready to die.

This is nothing more than preparing Americans for the concept of civil rights or whatever groups calling for martial law; how convenient, ‘for the sake of the children save us with martial law’. Wake up as the time is here for all Americans to stand or kneel as slaves.

Oh no, You bad for that! Forum Moderators? I need medical care for falling off the chair laughing!

Hey man, don't ever laugh at someone with a tiny wee. They will become insanely angry and may fine you 500 points or ban you.

Of course that won't alleviate their "personal plights", but hey whatever works...

I'm sure you took notice, but I wanted to point something in your quote out to the thread readers...

If you go back and look at the links to the articles I have provided, you'll see that SGTChas is right on the money! In at least two of the articles, there is a reference to the "safety and welfare of the children".

Now these are essentially kids shooting kids, but we need to think of the children.

Pretty insideous, neh?

(Sally Strothers voice) "Won't you pleeeease think of the children?"

IF it weren't so close to home, it would almost be funny.

More info on the way, I've got to be "domestic" for a bit first...

I know parts of PA have been hurt as far as unemployment and it is very simple when people go poor, crime goes up.

That being said I will point out the obvious, that is any kind of martial law or increase of police is merely attacking a symptom rather than the cause of the problem.

This could be the inevitability of things to come.

We shall see what happens...

The fact that the NAACP is getting involved says volumes about the source of the problem.

They should thank LBJ and his Great Society for what's going on today.

Ain't it Great?

Yeah, I'm still waiting to hear how they define a "victory" on LBJ's Appalachian "war on poverty", or to see if they ever develop an exit strategy. It's been going on closing in on 45 years now, and they're still losing.

This would be hilarious if it wasn't so tragic. A "Civil Rights" organization begging for the suspension of Civil Rights? Priceless.

Wonder if this ties in with the DHS talk of "federalizing" local Law Enforcement? I reckon we'll see how that works out for 'em. Around here, the city PD might buy into it, but I don't think the sheriff would. Then again, he's already doing the Fed's job on illegal immigrants. They might hold THAT over his head as a "federalization" done deal.

As it turns out, I might have my associations bass ackwards.

Doesn't "Martial Law" necessitate the military being in the streets patrolling? By definition, it ain't "Martial Law" until they get troops on the ground is it? Or can Martial Law now be declared with just a police force, and bring the troops in later?

What exactly are they trying to bring down on their own heads?

Just another quick update:

The "meeting" that was held to address this issue was closed, and the results have not made the news...

Wonder what plans were made? So do We, the People!

The MSM outlets in the area have been completely silent after the initial articles. The TV stations did not even report on the issue at all.

Sounds like the wool is being pulled over the collective eyes of the folks in south central PA...

More to follow as it becomes available.

sorry but isn't this SOP? local and state police cooperate all the time. i don't see the big deal here. sorry.

Wow I haven't heard about this and I live in pennsylvania to be it the upper north central part of pa instead of the south central part.I guess it is time to get the BOB ready just in case.Luckily I live in the mountains and i have places to run and hide.As bad as it gets I am not going to worry to much until the private security forces and foriegn troops patrol the streets.

Not really, no. This is pretty far from SOP. As previously stated, there are actually two police departments in Harrisburg, due to it's status as state capital. There is also the county sheriff's office, and a sizeable force it is, based in Harrisburg. Add to that a large two part probation and parole force (adult and juvenile) that participate in "ride alongs" with the city force to assist.

The city cops are now on compulsory 12 hour shifts, until further notice, and the state police have committed 2 marked cruisers, with another two in reserve to patrol the "problem" areas. (read: ghetto).

It may not seem like that big a deal, until you consider the mayor of Harrisburg's rampant spending, the near bankruptcy of the city, and the fact that just last week, eleven new officers were sworn into the city force.

In other words... It was "made" into a "big deal" by the NAACP, and other "civil rights" groups.

Any more questions?

Here's one for you... Would this be "no big deal" if martial law were considered in your town?
