The military was briefed the greatest threat to America was armed citizens.

Wait.

What?
I have seen some of the videos, as I am an editor but this is astounding. Do you have any links?
Threat Assessment.
The commission’s choice of underlying assumptions has
produced a threat analysis that is clearly skewed in a
particular direction: the United States will probably face a
threat of a mass casualty attack on the American homeland
instigated by an adversary state. I will argue below that
there is no reason to believe that this will be America’s
major security challenge. Mass casualty attacks may be
perpetrated by individuals and autonomous groups, and
these people are as likely to be American citizens as
foreigners.
Those Americans who believe that the U.S. Government
has been taken over by a Zionist conspiracy, that black
helicopters from the United Nations are threatening American
liberties, or that the supremacy of white Christians is under
threat from “mud people,” are as much a part of “Western
culture” as the rest of us.
Specialists in terrorism note that in recent years right
wing extremism has replaced leftist terrorism as the chief
concern. They also note that, for a variety of reasons, right
wing attacks are likely to produce more casualties than was
the case with the left wing terrorists of the 1960s and
1970s. Defense analysts have only recently appreciated
this threat. New World Coming ignores it almost entirely.
It does so at our peril.
Second, to the extent that there is a threat of mass
casualty attack on the United States, there are reasons to
argue that the perpetrators are likely to be U.S. citizens
committed to extreme right-wing world views. It is striking
that New World Coming has little to say on this issue,
Although the commission does not focus on this,
the increasing alienation of a significant section of
American society from their government creates a mass
social base from which future perpetrators of mass casualty
attacks may emerge.

Since the passage of the NDAA I contacted my congressman and both Senators to express my displeasure in them voting to indefinitely detain citizens accused of a non-crime. I am now on an inhibited fly list and must have permission from DHS before I can fly. I am searched at every stop the plane makes and treated like a criminal by the TSA.
I flew to DC 2 months before and didn't have a single issue. I had held a security clearance and lost it in December 2011, within 2 weeks of expressing my displeasure. As a result I have lost my job and been blacklisted from working government contract jobs.
So much for the land of the free...
I figure I have also been red listed and will be interned in one of those FEMA camps. Guess it looks like I may get to use my E and E training after all.
Brother, that is an absoulute outrage! I honestly can say I feel your pain...my advice, get the heck out of there. In the long run, you will be glad you did.

Now Moma's in the backroom serving up rocks,
Daddy's in Wandsworth sitting in a box.
Listen to the click of the steel as it locks.
The real enemies are in the corporate office blocks.

Americans (real Americans) are a threat to the ivory tower weanies that are currently in power.
Real Americans have become more knowlegable about the Constitution, the Bill of Rights.
Real Americans are waking up and seeing the abuses that are being done in the name of security.
Real Americans wn't go back to sleep.
