The stinking derelict you have to step over on the subway platform may actually be a well-trained commando on a secret mission to keep you safe.

A team of elite Delta Force, Navy SEALS and Air Force operatives has been prowling the city streets in elaborate disguise to tighten up the city's security before the Republican convention, The Post has learned.

[Pharmboy]

Posse comitatus anyone, or is this ok?

And that guy I gave a quarter to in the Port Authority Bus Terminal the other day may have been Delta Force? Geez...

[Tijeras_Slim]

The makers of the "Bumfights" videos are in for a rude shock.

[Casloy]

No, it's not ok. It is completely unconstitutional and I don't believe it is going on, either.

[Pharmboy]

Brilliant! LOLing here on a Sunday morning! That would be a very short video indeed...

[oceanview]

I don't buy it - or at best, they are former military guys working for a contracted security firm.

[Pharmboy]

Maybe they just put this story out to give the bad guys something extra to think about...

[Tijeras_Slim]

Posse comitatus

Applicable if military is fighting foreign nationals from a hostile power on US terrritory?

FReepers should supply some good comments to this.

WHY the f***?! is this being reported? THIS IS d*mn well treasonous.

"The makers of the "Bumfights" videos are in for a rude shock."

HAHAHAHAHA!!!

[Camel Joe]

How do you figure its against the constitution? Any backup for that statement?

[SamAdams76]

As well, our elite military forces will be masquerading as cab drivers, businessmen, tourists and window washers. Even the person selling papers at the newstands are standing behind the counter at the coffee shop could be Delta Force.

Terrorists beware. We are everywhere!

"No, it's not ok. It is completely unconstitutional and I don't believe it is going on, either."


If their only mission is the engagement of foreign terrorists this would be legal.

[SuziQ]

Frankly, I think this is a GREAT idea! This IS a national security issue, so it is only common sense that our military be involved.

Five out of six freeper posters are Special Forces commandos ready to lash out at any newbie troll.

[Camel Joe]

[Pharmboy]

LOL! Laz you are certainly a Special Forces wit...as is dead; BTW, is dead awake yet?

It's been all over the news probably for the purpose of making any terrorists think twice and/or disrupting any plans, should they exist. It's a reasonable strategy.

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

I saw a guy mopping up in the XXXrated movie house, he said he was really Delta and it was he deep cover to keep an eye out for terrorism at the convention.

LOL, and the other one-sixth are worn out from having done it so much.

[bad company]
