The protestors were fortunate that the DHS guards did not open fire upon them.
Fu o. Er FYI. First was a typo. Really. That’s my story and I’m ....
Whoa! Who ordered them to be there? Nappy?
Is this IRS building on Federal Property; it might be? Otherwise, there is _no_ federal police power. This is a well established legal principle. Implying there should have been state law enforcement only unless this ground is federal. Period. USG may be establishing brand new, lawless, operations right in front of y’all.
I _knew_ when _homeland_ security was formed that it would move to this. Read about the same in the history of Nazi Germany. This department needs to be closed; should never have been established.
Have we just stumbled upon the reason why our govt has been buying up ammo?
How long have they known?
Yeah, that looks like a mighty dangerous set of folks, doesn’t it? BTT
Did they have bandeleros of spare ammo and sonic weapons too?
War is Heck.
Ask Assad
Test. I keep getting “this thread is locked” when I try to post. Again, this is a test.
Go, Gladsen Flag!
Or is it that DHS supplied the vehicles to local cops?
“Weve got to have a civilian national security force thats just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded. - Barack Obama
Apparently no one at the time thought to ask him why.
Yours truly
My chillins'
"We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that weve set. Weve got to have a civilian national security force thats just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."
We are facing a man who thinks he's king and who abuses the IRS to pick on those who oppose high taxes, those who support the Constitution as written with enumerated powers and a limited federal government, and especially those who oppose Obama's continuing expansion of executive power.
We are facing someone so self-centered that he would allow Americans to die in Benghazi to avoid bad press that might interfere with his political campaign narrative and then lie about it to avoid the same bad press.
We are facing a man who knows the Constitution well enough to teach Constitutional Law but cares about it so little that he would intimidate the entire Associated Press and those whistle-blowers who might talk to reporters with over-broad searches of their communications, a man who is trampling the right to free exercise of religion and trying to destroy the Second Amendment.
I will not side with those who support Obama if things get ugly - I'll be on the side of the Constitution. I'm glad so many millions more weapons are now in civilian hands. I hope the American people and the American government will never resort to force against each other, but "if you want peace, prepare . . ." Funny how it worked out, but we already had that civilian national security force thats just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded as the military . . . it's a well regulated Militia, and it is necessary to the security of a free State in times like these.
Homeland Security profiles conservatives but NOT radical Muslims - one of the reason a child in Boston is dead ...
One of the reasons they’re at this protest and no others...
One of the reason we suspect those 1.6 billion bullets are for us.
Ok, everybody stop getting all excited. This is Federal Protective Service/FPS. Their job is to protect Federal installations. Sending some of them out is SOP for any kind of protest.
I see this once a week at the Federal building near me. Every Friday four or five pro-Palestine protesters (read: Liberals. And geriatric ones at that) show up with a banner. FPS parks right there in their white Tahoe. Sometimes they bring their dog.
IOW, bfd. Let’s tone back the hysteria, please?
Holy cow.
What the he!! is the DHS doing here?
They need to be put on the US/Mexico boarder. Then lets see how their moral is.
Always remember who gave us DHS (and the PATRIOT Act). It wasn’t the Kenyan Idiot. I’m sure this will be an unpopular post.
Did the guards have “SS” on their helmets, or had those been scraped off?
