Bearing in mind that the information is
unsubstantiated... it still falls in line with what I hear from the
peripheral at my day job.
This is an
indicator, and one of many. These indicators are rather like a pressure gauge. So long as pressure is
acceptable, then the pot won't boil over, or
EXPLODE. But there's a fairly long list of indicators at this point, and as time goes on the list gets longer, and the pressure increases. It's
NOT a good thing.
One thing that's definitely going to over pressurize the
pot is for Federal authorities to
augment U.S. law enforcement with foreigners in response to the
domestic terrorism problem....especially if they show up in their uniforms. It won't matter what sort of
agreement was signed by the nations involved. The fact is that foreign military, or law enforcement here in the U.S. simply isn't
safe. Oh sure... we've had limited instances of it in the past (such as with 9-11 and Katrina), but if it's
generally perceived that they're here against the citizenry at large, this will be a most definite catalyst.
I'm not unique in my associations, and as with most of us here, I know people I stay away from because they're
unstable, and I consider them
DANGEROUS....to themselves, to me, and to others! But I also know people who won't lift a finger no matter
WHAT. These two types are on opposite ends of the spectrium. But most of the people I know are somewhere in the middle. Most of our personal associations are like this.... in the
middle.
It's this
middle that will suddenly catalyze and then gladly do things such as punch a hole from a distance into a
blue helmet with a scoped hunting rifle, or shoot a law enforcement officer with an eastern European accent during a routine traffic stop (more likely if he's wearing a
funny uniform)....and these are only a few of many
things they'll be willing to do when that pot I was talking about explodes.
IMHO, the Feds are straining to
create a domestic terrorism problem. Oh yes...there are indeed white supremacists, Jihadis, and crazy people who simply resort to violence
FIRST, and
generally we
AVOID these people like plague! These people
ARE dangerous to
EVERYBODY and federal law enforcement agencies are right in dealing with them!
But the feds are failing to notice something, and this will certainly cause them severe problems
IF they over pressurize that pot I was talking about. This
something are those plain
middle of the road people who are now organizing for the purpose of a
common defense. They could care less about Jihad, or white supremacists, or the other
crazies, or even federal and local law enforcement for that matter. But they are nurturing and developing a very pronounced sense of accountability over each other, with respect to physical security, and it's akin to a large field being taken over by hundreds (perhaps thousands) of smallish yellow jacket nests. Woe be to the one who
steps in the first nest! These people are difficult to pick out of a crowd as well. They don't put bumper stickers on vehicles, and (generally) won't talk politics or religion with you. They don't
hang out here, or at AR-15.com, and they don't discuss strength numbers, or even that they might shoot recreationally on a weekend. They're
nice, but they're developing systems of trust and putting OPSEC into play even though some of them don't know the definition of the acronym.
I've said this before about these
middle of the road people. They're good, solid people...patient, and slow to anger... Judeo/Christian based, and (IMHO) overly willing to use our representative legislative processes, even when it's so obviously corrupt and in such a dismal state of failure. But
WHEN these people consciously decide to
act, there will be no turning back as a nation. I say
WHEN because there is an observable and measurable increase of hostility and distrust between them and their government. It's not on the decrease. It's on the increase. At some point, something must
give. At some point, these
middle of the road people will be faced with a line in the sand and, historically here in America, this sort of thing usually pans out quite different than Europe or any other nation.
If there's any truth to the source of this thread, the feds should be very, very careful.
UP...
