By "C"
I had dinner three nights ago with a group of local Republicans who hosted a candidate for state senate here in Oklahoma. One of the attendees was a US Marshal. He had been on for over 25 years and after finding that I was a retired Tulsa PD officer, said that the Marshal's service had an order that he had never seen or heard of. None of the guys he worked with had ever seen such an order.
Basically hundreds of US Marshals are being ordered to "in service training" in another state (can't remember if he said Iowa, Indiana or another state in that area), and when they get there, they would have to turn in their issue firearms! It (the "in service") is to be for a two week (or longer) period, and will start just before the November election. He said "what in the hell is going on? We NEVER surrender our guns when we go someplace, and especially in-service training. We have asked about that and have received no answers from the brass. We're all very uncomfortable about this. Also, we have not been told when we will be able to come back home."
I told him that my old boss and I had wargamed a scenario like this wherein the officers on my department could easily be disarmed by simply calling the shifts in one at a time for "in-service training" or a "briefing" for a day, and then being told to turn in our pistols and shotguns for "safety checks". Once disarmed, we would be loaded on buses and then taken wherever the powers that be wanted to stash us (or get rid of us). We know that local and state police are not termed "reliable" by the NWO crowd and D.C. bureaucrats. I now wonder if they have determined they can't trust their own agents as well in case of martial law? (Of all the guys I polled on my department ten years ago none said they would enforce illegal or unconstitutional martial law unless it had to do with natural disasters such as tornados, floods etc.)
