Homeland Security.....I Feel Safe.....LoL

The Republic Is All But Dead

With mostly disinterested Americans and a White House who is working a plan to kill this country I think The Republic is all but dead! Just think about life, liberty, and property and the way this country looks today vs. 50 years ago, is it better now? Do you see it getting better in a year, two years, 5 years or 10 years? I don't see anything getting better and I don't see this country making it much more than a year or two more. Freedom is all but dead and the laws and rules change everyday. I see on the news or read on the Internet each day about new Bullshit. Code laws and new laws on gardens, yards, food and just about everything you can think of, but to tell you the truth a real patriot can see it in a heartbeat, it's tools of the elite to starve us out. Take away our ways to grow food and raise livestock and make us live off the government tit so we will be easy to kill off and make it harder to fight back. I say fight back now!!! If they tell you not to grow a garden then do it anyway and if they say you can have or or give away raw milk then I say do it anyway. We are Americans and this should be a free country and if you own land then you should be able to do what you like on it as long as you follow the laws of God and don't do harm to others. I say put a sign out on the front of your property with this on it, " This is my land, my Home and where I do my day to day things. If you don't like what I do then please don't stop and say hello, don't even look my way because if you don't like the way I do things I'm sure you will not like the way I see this world and the way I live in it, so keep on going down the road. I will not bother you if you don't bother me......this I promise you!!!"
If more people kept to themselves and didn't get into other peoples business this would be a better country. But you have the few who think it's there calling to be the block, city or town extra police and OMG if they see something out of sorts,"911" I saw where a family was having a yard sale and had a few air-soft guns for sale and the cops where called on them because they were selling guns! What the hell is that about? I will tell you the Walking Dead are fools and do as Big Brother tells them and when that nice FEAM Bus pulls up and they are told to get on to go for a ride to see Camp FEAM I'm sure the Walking Dead will show up with there toothbrush and a smile ready to go.
I'm done with being Mr Nice Guy from this point on if I'm pulled over or stop when walking by a Cop or TSA at the airport and asked something dumb I'm going to go shit crazy on them..... I'm done, they can all KISS MY ASS!!!!

Army Manual Outlines Plan To Kill Rioters, Demonstrators In America

“Warning shots will not be fired”
Paul Joseph Watson
Infowars.com
Friday, July 6, 2012

A newly leaked US Army Military Police training manual for “Civil Disturbance Operations” outlines how military assets are to be used domestically to quell riots, confiscate firearms and even kill Americans on U.S. soil during mass civil unrest.

The document (PDF), which is dated 2006 and was used for a self-learning course at the U.S. Army Military Police School at Fort McClellan, makes it clear that the operations described in the manual apply to both “CONUS and OCONUS,” meaning inside the Continental United States and outside the Continental United States.

The document outlines how military assets will be used to “help local and state authorities to restore and maintain law and order” in the event of mass riots, civil unrest or a declaration of martial law.

The primary function of military assets will be focused around, “breaking up unauthorized gatherings and by patrolling the disturbance area to prevent the commission of lawless acts,” states the document, adding, “during operations to restore order, military forces may present a show of force, establish roadblocks, break up crowds, employ crowd control agents, patrol, serve as security forces or reserves, and perform other operations as required.”

The manual also describes how prisoners will be processed through temporary internment camps under the guidance of U.S. Army FM 3-19.40 Internment/Resettlement Operations, which as we reported earlier this year, outlines how internees would be “re-educated” into developing an “appreciation of U.S. policies” while detained in prison camps inside the United States.

On page 20 of the manual, rules regarding the use of “deadly force” in confronting “dissidents” are made disturbingly clear with the directive that a, “Warning shot will not be fired.”

The manual includes lists of weapons to be used against “rioters” or “demonstrators,” including “antiriot grenades.” It also advises troops to carry their guns in the “safe port arms” stance, a psychological tactic aimed at “making a show of force before rioters.” Non-lethal weapons and water cannons are also included.

The document also explains how the military will be involved in spying on and gathering information on dissidents to identify the, “Existence of persons, groups, or organizations which have distinctively threatened or are creating disturbances.”

“Crowd control agents” will also be deployed for the purpose of “reducing resistance,” states the manual, which also implies that troops will be used to confiscate firearms.

“Restrictions on the sale, transfer, and possession of sensitive material such as gasoline, firearms, ammunition, and explosives will help control forces in minimizing certain forms of violence,” states the document on page 40.

“Consideration may be given to evacuating sensitive items, such as weapons from stores,” the manual also states on page 27.

The document emphasizes how troops should make every effort, “to avoid appearing as an alien invading force and to present the image of a restrained and well-disciplined force whose sole purpose is to help to restore law and order with a minimum loss of life and property.”

This 115 page manual represents a shocking new insight into how the U.S. military will be used domestically to violently quell unrest in the aftermath of a total economic collapse or other national emergency.

Preparations for using troops to deal with mass civil unrest on U.S. soil have been in the works for years.

Back in 2008, U.S. troops returning from Iraq were earmarked for “homeland patrols” with one of their roles including helping with “civil unrest and crowd control”.

In December 2008, the Washington Post reported on plans to station 20,000 more U.S. troops inside America for purposes of “domestic security” from September 2011 onwards, an expansion of Northcom’s militarization of the country in preparation for potential civil unrest following a total economic collapse or a mass terror attack.
A report produced that same year by the U.S. Army War College’s Strategic Institute warned that the United States may experience massive civil unrest in the wake of a series of crises which it termed “strategic shock.”
“Widespread civil violence inside the United States would force the defense establishment to reorient priorities in extremis to defend basic domestic order and human security,” stated the report, authored by [Ret.] Lt. Col. Nathan Freir, adding that the military may be needed to quell “purposeful domestic resistance”.

Rex 84, short for Readiness Exercise 1984, was established under the pretext of a “mass exodus” of illegal aliens crossing the Mexican/US border.

During the Iran-Contra hearings in 1987, however, it was revealed that the program was a secretive “scenario and drill” developed by the federal government to suspend the Constitution, declare martial law, assign military commanders to take over state and local governments, and detain large numbers of American citizens determined by the government to be “national security threats.”
With many Americans now becoming “pre-revolutionary” as a result of their fury at the Obama administration and equally unpopular lawmakers in Washington, potential civil unrest could spring not just from a poverty-stricken underclass, but also the shrinking middle class.
Perhaps that’s why the Department of Homeland Security is increasingly focusing its anti-terror apparatus on white middle class Americans, portraying them as domestic terrorists in a series of PSA videos. In addition, ‘Occupy’ protesters are also now being characterized as terrorists.

Happy 4th Of July

Homeland Security Report Lists ‘Liberty Lovers’ As Terrorists

Americans who are “suspicious of centralized federal authority, reverent of individual liberty” deemed domestic threat
Paul Joseph Watson
Infowars.com
Tuesday, July 3, 2012

A new study funded by the Department of Homeland Security characterizes Americans who are “suspicious of centralized federal authority,” and “reverent of individual liberty” as “extreme right-wing” terrorists.

Entitled Hot Spots of Terrorism and Other Crimes in the United States, 1970-2008 (PDF), the study was produced by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism at the University of Maryland. The organization was launched with the aid of DHS funding to the tune of $12 million dollars.

While largely omitting Islamic terrorism - the report fails completely to mention the 1993 World Trade Center bombing – the study focuses on Americans who hold beliefs shared by the vast majority of conservatives and libertarians and puts them in the context of radical extremism.

The report takes its definitions from a 2011 study entitled Profiles of Perpetrators of Terrorism, produced by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism, in which the following characteristics are used to identify terrorists.

- Americans who believe their “way of life” is under attack;

- Americans who are “fiercely nationalistic (as opposed to universal and international in orientation)”;

- People who consider themselves “anti-global” (presumably those who are wary of the loss of American sovereignty);

- Americans who are “suspicious of centralized federal authority”;

- Americans who are “reverent of individual liberty”;

- People who “believe in conspiracy theories that involve grave threat to national sovereignty and/or personal liberty.”

The report also lists people opposed to abortion and “groups that seek to smite the purported enemies of God and other evildoers” as terrorists.

As we have exhaustively documented on numerous occasions, federal authorities and particularly the Department of Homeland Security have been involved in producing a deluge of literature which portrays liberty lovers and small government advocates as terrorists.

The most flagrant example was the infamous 2009 MIAC report, published by the Missouri Information Analysis Center and first revealed by Infowars, which framed Ron Paul supporters, libertarians, people who display bumper stickers, people who own gold, or even people who fly a U.S. flag, as potential terrorists.

The rush to denounce legitimate political beliefs as thought crimes, or even mundane behaviors, by insinuating they are shared by terrorists, has accelerated in recent months.

Under the FBI’s Communities Against Terrorism program, the bulk purchase of food is labeled as a potential indication of terrorist activity, as is using cash to pay for a cup of coffee, and showing an interest in web privacy when using the Internet in a public place.

As we have documented on numerous occasions, the federal government routinely characterizes mundane behavior as extremist activity or a potential indicator of terrorist intent. As part of its ‘See Something, Say Something’ campaign, the Department of Homeland Security educates the public that generic activities performed by millions of people every day, including using a video camera, talking to police officers, wearing hoodies, driving vans, writing on a piece of paper, and using a cell phone recording application,” are all potential signs of terrorist activity.
The DHS stoked controversy last year when it released a series of videos to promote the See Something, Say Something campaign in which almost all of the terrorists portrayed in the PSAs were white Americans.

Is there something to this? Is there trouble on it's way in a few months? Are you ready? Do you have guns, ammo, food, water and other needed items to survive? Will you survive or can you survive with what you have on hand now? If not you best get to work my friend and do it ASAP!!!! Time is running out.......

All I Can Do Is Laugh..... But We All Need to Just Cry............

It's not funny at all but all I can do is laugh out loud. This country is run by fools and is going to hell in a hand-basket so fast. The United States of America took a giant step toward a totalitarian socialist government when the Supreme Court voted to uphold Obamacare and push a BS Tax/good on the people of this country. This individual mandate for the government to force American citizens to buy health insurance whether they want to or not is in my mind just crazy. If they will vote to force people to buy insurance, they will vote to force you to do whatever they please, regardless of how destructive it is to our democracy and our freedoms. Chief Justice Roberts is crazy and I think this is all a plan to collapse this country and take total control of the people. So what's next? What will they go after next, guns, free speach or just freedom it's self? Our time is short and this country is all but dead and as they shovel the last bit of dirt onto our grave most of us are walking dead already! Wake up and fight!!! Fight the system and fight the fools who lead us! This country is about to collapse are you ready?
