HOUSTON (KTRK) -- The sight of Army helicopters and the sound of gunfire created a lot of concern Monday afternoon in one Houston neighborhood.

We received a lot of phones calls, Tweets and Facebook posts from worried neighbors, wondering what was going on.

SkyEye 13 HD was over the south side where at first look, it appeared there was a massive SWAT scene happening.

With military helicopters flying above her southeast Houston neighborhood, Frances Jerrals didn't know what to think.

"When you see this, you think the worst. When you hear this, you think the worst," Jerrals said.

And so, she passed along her concern.

I can see the arch over the camps now. It won’t read “Arbeit Macht Frei”. It will read “Es ist fur die Kinder.”

And a second after you enter, "Essen deine Erbsen"

[Old Sarge]

It will read “Es ist fur die Kinder.”

And a second after you enter, "Essen deine Erbsen"

While outside the gates, we shall hear the chant, "Wo ist meine freie Scheisse?""

When it does, the “gloves” come off. “Whose gloves”, is the question.

It won't be the citizens. We'll just have to see which numbered jersey on the opposing team makes the illegal hit...

Micheal Berry Show..(KTRH 740am on Iheart) is discussing this item now.

The interment camps around Amerika are open and ready for business. These troops will do what they are ordered to do. Or run the risk of going to jail themselves for refusing obey orders. They have been trained to take orders. If told to round people up, they will round people up. It is coming folks. Those not believing this are simply not thinking clearly. This stuff will happen here. This is how it started in other countries, by the same type of so called leaders.

Yes, there are barbed wire fenced "FEMA" areas. I have seen the films.

[RetiredArmy]

I have seen the local barbed wire compounds.

Well they had tanks in the streets in St Louis in Sept. They are are not practicing for foreign conflicts. Bad joo joo this way comes.

Just tuned in to Michael Berry...must've missed the coverage of this *operation* (he's now talking about the gal who's going to get the zot on death row tonight).

What was Michael's take on the covert Houston operation? Thanks.

“Herding suburban families into cattle cars takes planning and teamwork.”

Once tyranny has overthrown a legitimate government it will need skilled workers to supply the state and most of those live in the suburbs. The two groups who need to fear the cattlecars are the useless eaters once their votes are no longer needed and the disillusioned intellectuals once they find out the workers’ paradise they dreamed of is not what they got.

[skinkinthegrass]

his take...wasn't needed; Army/Military has propose-built facilities; was worried about some
morons' conspiracy theories (he was justified) taking things out of kilter.
..some State/local area officials were not notified of these armed operations.
It may have been the plan. :-|

Ahhh, but how long have they been doing this? I'm from Katy (stuck in FL for now), and though it's a fair drive to the Pasa-getdown-dina area (or Clear Lake, not sure where this going on), I don't remember this kind of stuff 10 years ago. Or was it just not reported, or smaller?

Still, it makes me wonder. Maybe if we didn't have such a plainly wannabe' king as President.....

An individual, even those with special skiils, resisting harder, can only achieve levels of resistance in a linear fashion. Maybe Goat Grannies can achieve a total resistance of 150% compared to the average potential resister.

A Goat Granny, having convinced 10 Sheeple Grannies to resist also, reaches maybe 1150% resistance.

Removing potential obstacles first does risk warning the intended target but reduces that threat back down to only having to face the ability of the one.

The exact locations around Houston change and it’s not at exactly the same tim. I don’t know why those factors change. If I had to I would guess that their selection process considers vital factors like strategic bikini concentrations. It certainly seems to happen closer to Galveston when weather is warmer.

I may be misunderstanding the reasons for that.

>>What gives?<<

DHS has been beefing up local law enforcement with grants for advanced military equipment.

Remember Obozo stating,”we need a civilian force just as well equipped...

These military exercises in civilian areas are nothing less than a warning to citizens.

I am sorry gnarledmaw but I don’t quite understand your post to me....we are a country of 30,000,000 or more not just goat granny. My only skill is knowing how to point a gun and pull a trigger. Out west the resistance would be hot and heavy. Probably down south also, The upper atlantic coast would fall easily as would parts of california...
