Cool. It looks like it has RPG screens and is painted for use in desert. That will certainly help in neighborhood policing.

Apparently they are in no hurry to deploy.
The tie downs twisted around itself in rat balls will take some time.

Also they may want to brush up on vector geometry. Having the tie downs vertical, is not a good idea.

If that beast starts rocking those small chains will not slow it down.

“Nothing a citizen can legally posess can penetrate the armor, so it might as well be a “tank”.”


Based upon the original intent of the Founders, we MUST have the right to possess arms equal in strength to what our own government is willing to use against us. They did not limit arms to muskets, knives, slingshots... for a reason. They were brilliant. They knew fully well, thanks to history, the tendency of governments to abuse power and to use the current weapons of the day against their own people.

For ARMS to be used for original intent you cannot limit citizens to little fire sticks with 10 (7 in NYS) projectiles.

This is a government preparing to shred the remainder of the US Constitution and in the words of the great monkey’s friend, Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers stated ... killing 25 million Americans that would not bend to their political will... “Innocent people have to die in a revolution.

What if O is just using propaganda and false numbers to create false fear in the public. What if he only had a few of the armored cars made and pays people to haul them all over the U.S. to give the appearance that they are ramping up their civilian army?

“we may all have to make a choice. A choice between being sheep herded by the new-age socialist/fascists and being part of the Constitutional resistance”

I have made my choice. Actually it’s not a choice, just the way I am. And I know what the outcome will be.

“militarized police agencies.”

BHO’s own Hitler-like thug agencies, DHS being one of them. Have you been through an airport lately with these uniformed thugs patrolling the concourses with their Glocks, Sigs, etal on their hips. A lot of those people look like and are nothing but militarized thugs to be used against us.

Unless we do something to disable massive election fraud, it won’t matter whether she is likeable. Won’t matter who “votes” for her.

And Hillary has to know that if Soros could threaten to kill Chelsea in 2008, to keep the Clintons from challenging Obama’s eligibility, he can do the same thing any time in order to install Michelle. Again, popularity doesn’t have to mean a THING in this country if our electoral system isn’t sound.

And bear in mind that Cloward and Piven had 2 legal planks to their plan to destroy the nation from within, and both were carried out by the Saudi-funded and Ayers-assisted Barack Obama: CRA to make capitalism “fail”, and Motor Voter Act to make elections stealable.

Hillary knows that. They all know that. They all know that 2008 was a coup, and all the things that were done to shush up the opposition in 2008 and 2012 can be done again at any time. The mechanisms that allowed 2012 to be stolen can still be used for any other candidate, in the primary or general election.

Those who said we just need to wait out Obama’s time in the White House and then we can get back to normal are ignoring some very important realities. There is a huge danger in not recognizing a coup for what it was - specifically, that you take things for granted that are no longer in effect. Stuff like the rule of law, or the power of the voters to actually make any difference.

But it seems like they are preparing for a major event to finish off the coup. My guess is some combination of financial collapse, EMP attack, and/or coordinated biological WMD attacks in every major city. The communist friends that Obama has been “pal-ing” around with have had about 40 years to figure out how to exterminate what they estimated would be 25 million Americans who would resist the coup.

I have used that Ayers “observation” as an example of what the left is willing to do if it has the power to do it.

the people in those targets are not just all white, but the women appear to be ethnically Jewish as well.

A very good point, remember the Antisemitism that runs deep in the Regime's veins (Calypso Louie and trying to frame da joos for Benghazi being basic examples)

Which is why I pray your Native American Genes are prominent in you Mesta :(

Bump to find out who they will be used on.
Maybe they are just to protect the elite from the 99%

Nice deconstruction.

BTW, I just want to keep emphasizing that no matter how they package her-—she does not and never will earn Americans’ admiration and respect.

(though I do have this tendency to push left with the 9mm when shooting right handed, I think it's incurable, though less pronounced during rapid-fire drills)

It is likely you are anticipating recoil and pushing the weapon forward (a little left and slightly low). Relax and let the shot break slow fire. Rapid fire, you don't have the time to nudge the pistol.

Demonrats are giddy with success. Ohaha sees himself----and his secular/welfare/socialist/union coalition----dominating public life. But tyranny and grandiosity have a very short shelf life.....as history shows.

The self-serving progs live in a dark place----they know only (1) the govt as enforcer, and, (2) the individual to be crushed.

Whereas Conservatives are strongly united by love of country----united by a dynamic force of issue-centered groups, associations, churches, military, tea parties, prayer groups, gun pwners, the power of the internet and web sites.......

.......as well as powerful organizing issues----patriotism, gun ownership, pro-lifers, religious freedom/1st amendment.........and on, and on, and on.

Obama's forces of evil refuse to recognize constitutional freedoms. They refuse to adhere to the hallmarks of a democracy---in-place constitutional guarantees.

========================================

The Founders escaped domination and endured horrendous deprivation----they structured our govt to protect the citizenry from tyrants and oppression. The safeguards are there----they merely have to be mobilized.......by we, the people.

...Department of Homeland Security has stockpiled more than 1.6 billion bullets, mainly .40 caliber and 9mm. DHS also purchased 2,700 Mine Resistant Armor Protected Vehicles (MRAP). (30-35,0000 drones are on order...

I'm sure - SURE - if President Bush was ordering this kind of stuff to make war on the American people - while referring to 'left wingers' as 'the enemy'... that the effing suck-up losers at the New York Times would ignore it.

Yeah, they'd ignore it... Hell, the New York Times had their pants in a wad over someone seeing what library books they checked out ... *when a Republican was in office....

God I hate the press.

Would you people stop faulting Bush for everything? You’re worse than the Rats. Open your eyes are look honestly at the two people, Bush and Obama. Is there any similarity a all? Because he started a drug entitlement program? Read this article again and tell me the two men are the same.
