Instead of defending our borders and removing the enemy within, we are forced into this?

The first deployment began on Oct. 1, 2008 by the 3rd Infantry Division’s 1st Brigade Combat Team....

My papers, please? Ugh. To help prevent terrorism? I’m struggling to see how this force would have deterred the 9/11 terrorists. 20,000 uniformed troops. Alrighty then...

20,000 troops? That’s chump change.

We got over 50,000 right here at Ft Bragg, thousands more Marines out on the coast and a few thousand airman at Seymore Johnson AFB.

Also noticed 6,000 of the 20,000 is Chem/Bio/Nuke teams from the Reserves and NG.

Better to have a plan and not need it than to need it and not have the plan.

Exactly, but we must show we are not bigots by hiring the Islamic "militants" as the internal police officers.

Special Islamic Police Force

Only American citizens are to conform...

Is this the beginings of Hussein’s domestic miliary force?

I guess we can just ignore Posse Comitatus now, right?

20,000 uniformed troops are almost as bad as 60,000,000 uninformed voters.

Bwahhhh!
I guess I’ll have to change my target selection from blue helmets to “other” 20,000? Some simple math- half won’t show up. 1/4 will run at the first “banging” noises. So that leaves what? Maybe 5,000 to be dealt with? And there’s a whole lot more of us then them. OK I can deal with these numbers.
