Back during the Clinton years, they wanted to do these exercises in urban areas and free republic came UNGLUED!! There was tremendous debate over it being it was right in the aftermath of Ruby Ridge and Waco.
The Military does not have any business on our streets training. There are enough military bases built up enough for this training.
It was not okay for Clinton to do it, it’s not okay for anyone else.
good point, they should be training on the mexican border
They were here doing the same exercises in 2004 and 2006. Was not a problem then for the same mayor, why now? The mayor is an egotistical loon. I think the fact that he was not notified before hand was his problem with it. The police knew and he did not. Your concern about troops in an actual downtown setting is another matter. This guy let these kids ride 4 hours on a bus just to turn them around and send them home.
