Charlotte is much quieter than 2 nights ago - amazing what a few NG units and state cops will do to inner city snowflakes. They’re all for rioting when they can grab stuff, burn stuff or beat people unlike themselves - with no apparent consequences. But when consequences show up, they melt away like the snowflakes they are.
I believe that this alert, assuming it is true, is more about keeping military personnel away from Charlotte. I would expect something similar from Ft. Bragg.
OTOH, having military forces put on alert with what’s going on in Syria has me a bit worried. Bamy and Clinton have been quite cavalier in their attitude toward using military force, believing that it has no consequences. Well, against Achmed and the Camel Corp, that may be true. But up against Ivan...not so much.
I hope and pray that this is a bogus report, or that it has to do with keeping Marines away from rioting. If it has to do with Syria (or any other overseas location), then we may be witnessing the beginning of a massive distraction to shift/postpone/cancel the Election.
Syria is a likely concern, but no way that Assad will invite them in, and no way Putin will agree.
So, staging in Jordan is a possibility, but it’s more likely to be carrier task force off shore.
The good stuff has been picked over already. They're back home listing their recent acquisitions on Craig's List and ebay.
