What will it take - an IED or some suicide bombers to make them understand WHY the military is important? Would they rather see an IED go off downtown during rush hour?

>>”The mayor asked them to leave because they frighten people,” <<

Guess what, Mayor. The events they are training to thwart are even scarier. A$$hat.

An IED in downtown Toledo would probably be an improvement. Finkbeiner is an idiot!

Toledo is a town that started out full of old school UAW union Democrats and has “modernized” into being full of NeoLiberal moonbat Leftists. You can decide for yourselves whether this is a good thing or not.

With all of the Muslims around Toledo it would be a good idea to have the Marines there from time to time!

I’m reminded of a Hitlery story - something about requesting that military uniforms not be worn by those around the First Family because they scared Chelsea

Frighten people!!?? Good lord, United States citizens should be elated to see our finest. Man I fear for my grand children, this will be a very different place for them.

Unpublished standards requirements for dhimmicratic public “servants”:
1: No education save for the “easy A “ course of little or no substances
2: Grades of C average or less (even given those course described in 1)
3: No accomplishments of any sort outside of politics
4: Could be a lawyer
5: Never had a “real” job
6: Has no concept of economics
7: Has never had, and never will - have an original idea
8: Lies constantly about “accomplishments”

Sound familiar??

Frighten people? Heck, if I saw them training downtown I take them a plate of warm cookies.

Wouldn’t expect much less out of Finkbeiner. He’s an anti-gunner as well.

This isn’t even Berkeley. It’s in our neck of the woods this time. I’ll be firing off a letter to the editor of the local paper soon.

Toledo police knew days in advance about their plans for a three-day exercise. Yet somehow the memo never made it to Mayor Finkbeiner, who ordered the Marines out yesterday afternoon just minutes before their buses were to arrive.

BS. Blatant grandstanding by The Fink.
