It seems that there are times when you can’t fool all of the people.

They are reporting the results of a poll conducted by Public Policy Polling - a pro-Democrat outfit.

Is it a “conspiracy theory” if they’re really practicing domestic warfare?

The fascist progs would LOVE nothing better than to see Americans have their homes raided, guns confiscated, and children taken. It’s total porn for them. Sick.

Reading Salon lately, they’re all but calling for it. They can’t wait for a good ol’ French Revolution style purging of the wrong-thinking undesirables.

I do not buy into the Jade Helm conspiracy as a direct threat to us today. My Question is what will Jade Helm be in the future and what is the purpose of this exercise today.

This is obviously an exercise to possibly contain enemies within the borders of the United States which by definition is not the function of the military. I ask two questions, who is the enemy, and why are we training for this?

If you do not know what Posse Comitas means, please find out. It is important.

Jade Helm should be the military practicing to eliminate the sedition of all of the mosques in the US.

True or not -— it is a good exercise in being a vigilant Patriot ... keep eyes wide open... Having Federal troops do exercises on private property is improper... it needs to be done on military bases - or why not on the Mexican Border... ?
