A Navy veteran has been fired and branded a terrorist for posting Facebook pictures of scores of Homeland Security SUVs parked at a hotel near Ferguson where he works.

Mark Paffrath, who worked for the Drury hotel chain, took photos and a video of dozens of vehicles marked with the logos of the Department of Homeland Security and Federal Protection Services which arrived in the parking lot of Chesterfield’s Drury Plaza Hotel last week.

The vehicles are parked about a 30-minute drive from Ferguson, Missouri.

Paffrath says he was also told by his superiors that he put the hotel's $150, 000 contract with the Department of Homeland Security in jeopardy.

Is the Department of Homeland Security in Town?

November 17, 2014

A representative from the Homeland Security office in Jefferson City, Missouri, sent KMOX an email saying, “the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has no role in the Ferguson Security Plan.”

If this Navy veteran is a ‘terrorist’, what’s Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl?

Sure don't look like a Motel 6.

I wonder what they're all doing while hanging out?

“...and he pretty much called me a terrorist”

So his employee did not call him a terrorist.

He breached his employment protocol and got fired.

What does his being a vet have to do with anything?

I’m probably a terrorist, I dodged the draft by going straight into the Navy, had to get my dad to sign so I could join just before my eighteenth birthday and do three years active rather than four. How can I tell for certain whether I am a terrorist?

The question is :

Who is the Federal Protective Service protecting?

Us or the government?

WAKE UP PEOPLE..there is more to this story that the VET did not know, and that the public was not supposed to learn until the Riots.

I do *not* trust the administration, just pointing out the sequence of events that follows such a public statement. Sort of like a bunch of FEMA agents hanging out at a hotel 50 miles from the Gulf Coast after hurricane-related evacuation orders are issued - it's right out of the bureaucracy's SOP playbook.

DHS has lots of assets to throw at a situation like this, but the Federal Protective Service's (absorbed into DHS under George W. Bush, IIRC) presence is not unexpected.

Is it all an elaborate ruse, intended to catch us off-guard? We'll know soon after the hollow-points start flying.

Well, one thing Obama has not put into place yet is the civilian security force that was to be equal to the military.

But he has two years left.

DHS was in Seattle over May Day, I suppose anticipating riots. There were pictures of local cops taking to people and DHS standing right there with them.
