US Army Preparing for Martial Law Scenario in US?

I'm just curious.

Since so many of you here apparently live in some constant state of paranoia just waiting for the other shoe to drop, have you considered Canada?

whats the difference? the cities are the same...and are on the same continent, under the same military mandate...

we have a huge expanse of land but other then that they are similar in every way and only different in your mind.

These "The military are goign to enforce the dictatorship" post keep poping up, i mean come on folks, as a military member myself, we are JUST LIKE YOU! trying to figure it all out.

This is CORRECTIONAL FACILITY (prison guards) training. It even says it in THE COLUMN QUOTED!

I give up, you are hell bent on paranoia at every expense, even the respect that the military deserves you would rather squander it and give no respect.

Hey look, the military is doing something that we don't know about or understand.

OBVIOUSLY, they're positioning to act against the American public. OBVIOUSLY.

Let's all get hysterical, and when it proves to be nothing nefarious, let's all pretend this thread never happened and move on to the next "everything is friggin' conspiracy" topic.

which respect that you deserve? in our eyes, honestly you (they) would've gotten a lot more had you disobeyed orders going into Iraq and afghanistan, thats why a lot of us dont believe you would disobey orders such as these.

those wars happened because of people's undying loyalty to their country...
you know how easy it is to manipulate the military into doing what you want when it comes to the integrity of the nation?

Would we have? When you had 80%+ majority of CONGRESS send us to war? you pretend it is a guerilla faction or something, disgusting honestly, absolutely ignorant of any truth due to the blindness of too many youtube losers making up rubbish.

And again no respect, you think military members are machines and dont have families affected by the same circumstances. Guess what, most wont, and if you had a clue and actually talked to them you would know most wont. Some will, just like some OF YOU here even will once you are stuck between starving and working for the powers to be,.

Again, disgusting to judge so many with no clue what you are talking about

No offense but if you are american please refrain from using the word rubbish. That makes you sound english and not american.

Just saying.

you have no right to ask someone not to use their own words. were all people here and freedom of speech here so far is still in effect. words have no ownership.

I can not tell him what to say. But that sh# sounds english and I have a right to say it.

People don't talk like that in the states. Rubbish is a word you can go weeks, months and even years without hearing,

i do not believe our military will be doing this no. even if the orders were given i'm confident that a larger majority of military personnel would defy such an order and side with their people.

i agree ....

fact of the matter is that soldiers have family's too

who ever controls the army controls the country ....soldiers are well aware of this fact

Something tells me your need of a local Walmart and Micky D's is stronger than your fear of the inevitable march to the gas chambers.

How incredibly stereotypical, harsh and judgemental of you. This is like me saying all people in canada are cowards who are lazy and make no contribution to combat zones. TS has not HTF yet, but when it does you will see something that hasn't been seen in this nation in 150 years.

Right. Well, until then, I'll continue being so harsh and judgmental. Sorry, I don't drink the "be so open minded that you buy into any pet conspiracy theory because it sounds like a bad plotline from X-Files" Kool-Aid. Sorry, but riot control exercises being visually linked to a Spartan phalanx isn't enough to have me all "Oh noes! Martial law is coming!!"

And by the way, your analogy is completely wrong. I wasn't dissing Americans, I was making the rather obvious point that there are a whole lot of conspiracy nuts who act all hard and patriotic and utterly dismayed that their beloved country is going down the toilet--and who likely do absolutely nothing about it other than talk, talk talk on internet forums.

Think again.

I do believe that the aftermath of such an event would make the race riots of the 60's look like church though.

I am one of those youtube users you so eloquently bash while proclaiming your superiority. Unfortunately you are the idiot here:

quoting wiki;

Introduced in Congress on October 2, 2002, in conjunction with the Administration's proposals,[2][7] H.J.Res. 114 passed the House of Representatives on Thursday afternoon at 3:05 p.m. EDT on October 10, 2002, by a vote of 296-133,[8] and passed the Senate after midnight early Friday morning, at 12:50 a.m. EDT on October 11, 2002, by a vote of 77-23.[9] It was signed into law as Pub.L. 107-243 by President Bush on October 16, 2002.

So 33% of Congress voted against the war and if you investigate further you might notice the Republicans voted along party lines for years without questioning their leader. So that means if GHWB wanted to go to war with Mars the vote would have come out the same way.

Since so many of you here apparently live in some constant state of paranoia just waiting for the other shoe to drop, have you considered Canada? Maybe Norway? Anywhere else? I mean, what with how horrid America has become and how many personal freedoms have eroded like the lone tear going down your cheek, why are you still hanging around waiting?

Something tells me your need of a local Walmart and Micky D's is stronger than your fear of the inevitable march to the gas chambers.

Your statements are very amusing!

People who grow up under a socialist government have no clue what freedom is all about. How can you miss what you haven't known? American citizens understand that our freedoms are being eroded and are understandably concerned.

For you to denigrate that concern with your moronic reference to Walmart and McDonalds is insulting and highlights your smug sense of superiority.

Americans do not shed a tear, We stand and fight!

Get over yourself, camus. You think you judge as you see, but you are quite blind.

That is a bogus excuse for dissing the military. Going to war in Iraq was ligitimate and we all know it.
There were weapons of mass distruction in Iraq and the government knows where they went. But they are unwilling to admit that they let them slip through their fingers.
Have you ever wondered why news reports of weapons of mass destruction in Syria have been given very little attention?
It is one thing for our military to follow orders to invade a country who's dictator uses weapons of mass desctruction on their own people and also invades other countries, and it is quite another thing for our military to use brutal force on our citizens.
I am very tired of people whining about Iraq when they should be raging over POTUS' foreign policies.

Well, ok. By the way, I'm American. I've even served my country proudly

Well, here's your Kleenex then. I trust your overwhelming sense of self-importance won't be too damaged by the horrors of my insults. How dare I point out what we, as Americans, truly value!

Americans do not shed a tear, We stand and fight!

Yeah. Look at you stand and fight here on the interwebs! You're so brave, guy! You're such a patriot.

edit on 10-4-2012 by thehoneycomb because: (no reason given)

I like the word rubbish...the alternative is garbage which some pronounce with a French accent...ewwwww!

Rubbish is a safe alternative to the bull...fill in the blank.

BTW....a lot of Americans speak "English"
