OK than sell the military bases if they are going to use public and private lands....
This is prepping for martial law....
Bkmrk.
With the tiny size of our standing Army the USA couldn’t impose martial law on New York let alone the entire USA. Do the math.
Surely, patriot groups have infiltrated and are passing intel out?
I absolutely cannot believe that every single Enlisted Man and Officer engaged in this “exercise” is on the dark side?
This story is fascinating on several levels. First, the number of kneepad media outlets that are running with it. An interesting amount of projection going on.
Secondly, its something to watch the politicians tiptoe around the 500 lb gorilla in the living room: the possibility of Texas secessipn. Its like if no one mentions it, maybe it’ll just magically go away. A silly strategy for otherwise bright people whom I respect.
Read these responses to see what is happening on the ground in Texas.

This type of conspiracy theories is so incredibly idiotic that anyone believing it should be committed.
I’ve seen this kind of political operation before, both in events elsewhere in the past and in histories of similar operations. Here’s what’s being done.
Certain scared, extremely influential political constituents, their pocket politicians and sponsored media folks are pushing the conspiracy theory. They’re hoping that some of the least intelligent individuals with rifles will cause incidents, and you know why. Some of the more moronic dupes or trolls have already threatened to open fire on the soldiers (who won’t even have live ammunition).
Remember that there are very influential constituents in both political parties who want to disarm all but their own kind. They want to disarm the middle class. It’s not only Democrats. And don’t assume that you are one of those very influential constituents or very special to them.
Many who participate on all kinds of discussion boards (including this one) while wanting laws against middle class Americans owning rifles are adding lies to the stories (dishonest claims that soldiers are trespassing on private, residential properties, using artillery simulators next to private homes, etc.). The claims were made long before the exercise started.
I participated in an exercise like that during the years of the George H. W. Bush Administration. We were not practicing to take over the world. We were practicing to protect friendly locals and their infrastructure, wherever those friendly locals may be in the future. The locals enjoyed seeing us.
The problem now is that many of the locals here and there are not so friendly. Neighborhood guy is a commando in his own mind, and he’s looking for trouble.
If they take Texas we are all through
Of all the conspiracy theories I have read over the years, the may be the most ridiculous. And boy is that saying something.
Quite glad to see it has gained little traction here.
let’s hope all the prep is being arranged for Leftists,Libs , commies and muz that try to resist the coming coup
“”When leaders within the current administration believe that major threats to the country include those who support the Constitution, are military veterans, or even ‘cling to guns or religion,’ patriotic Americans have reason to be concerned,” Gohmert wrote.”
Gotta love this guy. He’s as straightforward as Cruz is.

Don't let anyone deceive you in any way,
For this reason
Didn't our Heavenly Father, through our Savior tell us... How well we deserve this curse (~so shall the LORD bring upon you all evil things~) God has given us,
through the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF, the FASCIST Obama.
Barack Hussein Obama II IS a Muslim.
His actions prove it.
To believe Barack Hussein Obama II, when he claims to be a Christian, is to trust Satan.
Muslims are well know for lying about their faith.
The exercise is NOT massive: 2000 special operators across 7 states
over 5 months.
The exercise is NOT unprecedented: these types of exercises have been
conducted since the 1970s and there are towns in NC and VA that have
had their entire population role play for the military in the past.
This was also done in Germany during the Cold War.
The POTUS doesn’t get involved in planning military exercises.
The selection process for special operators has zero to do with politics.
The reason this is being conducted in the SW USA is because the
terrain there resembles the terrain features of the Middle East and
Southwest Asia.
These exercises cannot be held in countries in the Middle East and SW
Asia for obvious reasons.
The special operators who make up this particular exercise are
America’s foremost patriots. They actually risk life and limb to
fulfill their oath to the constitution. These are literally the Chris
Kyles of America. Do you really think those men are part of a plot to
help Barack Obama impose martial law?
I understand that people don’t trust Obama, but our military needs to
train in realistic scenarios whether Obama is president or Reagan is
president. Should the military cease all domestic training exercises
just because Obama is president?
About 6 weeks ago the British Army Parachute Regiment conducted joint
exercises with the 82nd Airborne and the 2nd Marine Division in North
Carolina. The same morons who are spreading paranoia about this
exercise claimed that that exercise was the opening phase of imposing
martial law. Well, the Paras went home and no martial law has been
imposed.
A few months ago, a Marine Expeditionary Unit conducted an amphibious
assault exercise near Jacksonville, Florida. The paranoia crowd
claimed that was a rehearsal for martial law too. These exercises are
NOT unprecedented. In fact they are commonplace.
Every time a train carrying armored vehicles is seen transiting the US
somewhere, the paranoids come out and claim “something is up.” This
nonsense has been going on for years. The military has routinely moved
armored units by rail car since the 1930s.
The guy who started all this paranoid nonsense is Alex Jones, a
sensationalist talk show host.
To those who doubt the military could impose martial law, I don’t think their plan is what we think of when we think “martial law” such as done by the Nazis. It’s to keep Obama in office. The troops, along with local law enforcement, would be used to shut down small groups of tea party types who would protest. And the republicans would support his actions.
And by the way, local cops would be so excited to work with the feds and the army they’d wet their pants. RESPECT MY AUTHORA-TIE! I heard a fat local cop who looked like “Cartman” actually say that a few months ago. And I doubt he’s ever watched Southpark.
