the military will follow orders...the govt workers will follow orders...the cops will follow orders...
we have a govt class now that lives for their pensions...especially the military..
if they tell the military personal that to show "diversity" they would change to rainbow colored shirts and ball caps, or else, they would wear the rainbow colored shirts and ball caps...
its worse among the officers...

let’s hope all the prep is being arranged for Leftists,Libs , commies and muz that try to resist the coming coup
To: Kaslin
“”When leaders within the current administration believe that major threats to the country include those who support the Constitution, are military veterans, or even ‘cling to guns or religion,’ patriotic Americans have reason to be concerned,” Gohmert wrote.”
Gotta love this guy. He’s as straightforward as Cruz is.

Naah. Its you that needs to be committed if you think Obama can't do something like this. All you have to do is look st his record and at what he actually says. Mr “I have a pen and a phone” and “I am going to carry out my policies with or without congress” is capable of anything. A very close eye must be kept on this so-called military exercise. Citizens of Texas should be armed and vigilant. I trust Obama even less than the most poisonous snake.

Perhaps they are planning on making whichever city they occupy first an example.
The Gestapo was relatively small - 32,000 in 1944. They operated not only in Germany but in occupied territories. They used civilian informants and of course, fear and intimidation, in lieu of boots on the ground.

“Don’t fear our own soldiers, sailors, Marines or airmen. Fear the attempt by federal-pork-supported state and local socialists to violate your civil (constitutional) rights. And remember that those socialists are disseminating the crazy talk and trying to foment incidents to pass more laws and further violate your rights.”
I didn’t really but your posts until that paragraph. I hope people just watch what is going on cautiously and no incidents occur.
But I wouldn’t go so far as to say never fear our military. I wouldn’t now - but look at who the commander-in-chief is. I would be cautious who I trust, uniform or not. (And I have the utmost respect for our military heros.) But part of the Cloward_Pivan plan is to use our military against us. And at the rate the plan is being implemented, I’d be wary. Cautious, but wary.

Naah. It's you and your far left crazy pals at Salon.com that need tinfoil hats. If by this time you still don't see how truly evil Obama is, you have your head buried in the sand.

Are the insults necessary or do they make you feel better?
This has nothing to do with how evil Obama is. This has to do with tinfoil-wearing conspiracy nuts. Seriously, does anyone really think the US government is ready, willing, or able to impose martial law and that that is what they are practicing to do? Texans are smarter than this.

Ummm.. you started with the insults mate. I merely returned serve using your own words against you, which just happens to fit. Typical liberal! Great at calling names, not so good at getting a taste of their own medicine.
To: Reno89519
And it has everything to do with how evil Obama is. Texans are smart enough to remember how the last Democratic president used federal forces to slaughter women and children at Waco. And Obama is far more evil than Bill Clinton ever was.
To: familyop
Crazy talk? It’s insane talk. However the way you should deal with it is to confront it and deal with the underlying grievances, not tiptoe around it. That’s how separatist movements thrive: they address legitimate political grievances that are being ignored through the “solution” of separation. In some cases separation is a solution that actually makes sense. In the case of Texas it would just end badly for all concerned.
Odd isn’t it? I don’t recall significant numbers of citizens being concerned about military exercises 10 years ago.

Not really...
I always thought that Operation “Praying Mantis” should have been named:
“Go kick Iran’s [expletive deleted]”
But that was, at the time, my opinion...

They SHOULD BE WORRIED about the MUSLIM TAKEOVER of the OVAL OFFICE by an ILLEGAL ALIEN.
He's a BIBLICAL CURSE !
Remember: Don't let anyone deceive you in any way,for [that day will not come] until the rebellion occurs and the man of LAWLESSNESS is revealed,the man doomed to destruction.
He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped,so that he sets himself up in God's temple,proclaiming himself to be God.
Don't you remember that when I was with youI used to tell you these things?
And now you know WHAT is holding him back,so that he may be revealed
For the secret power of LAWLESSNESS is already at work;but the one who now holds it backwill continue to do sotill he is taken out of the way.
And then the LAWLESS ONE will be revealed,whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth
and destroy by the splendor of his coming.
The coming of the LAWLESS ONE will be in accordance with the work of Satandisplayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders,
and IN EVERY SORT OF EVILTHAT DECEIVES those who are perishing.
They perishbecause THEY REFUSED to love the truth
For this reasonGod sends them a POWERFUL DELUSIONso that THEY WILL BELIEVE THE LIE
and so that ALL will be condemnedwho have NOT BELIEVED the truthbut have DELIGHTED in wickedness.
Obama is NOT Christian.
He's MUSLIM.
Didn't our Heavenly Father, through our Savior
tell us...
" thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy brother."
How well we deserve this curse (~so shall the LORD bring upon you all evil things~) God has given us,
through the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF, the FASCIST Obama.
Barack Hussein Obama II IS a Muslim.
His actions prove it.
To believe Barack Hussein Obama II, when he claims to be a Christian, is to trust Satan.
Muslims are well know for lying about their faith.
MUSLIMS are allowed to LIE and deceive NON MUSLIMS, if it benefits or protects ISLAM. Qur'an (16:106) - Establishes that there are circumstances that can "compel" a Muslim to tell a lie.
Qur'an (3:28) - This verse tells Muslims not to take those outside the faith as friends, unless it is to "guard themselves."
Qur'an (9:3) - "...Allah and His Messenger are free from liability to the idolaters..." The dissolution of oaths with the pagans who remained at Mecca following its capture. They did nothing wrong, but were evicted anyway.
Qur'an (40:28) - A man is introduced as a believer, but one who must "hide his faith" among those who are not believers.
Qur'an (2:225) - "Allah will not call you to account for thoughtlessness in your oaths, but for the intention in your hearts"
Qur'an (66:2) - "Allah has already ordained for you, (O men), the dissolution of your oaths"
Qur'an (3:54) - "And they (the disbelievers) schemed, and Allah schemed (against them): and Allah is the best of schemers." The Arabic word used here for scheme (or plot) is makara, which literally means deceit. If Allah is deceitful toward unbelievers, then there is little basis for denying that Muslims are allowed to do the same. (See also 8:30 and 10:21)
Taken collectively these verses are interpreted to mean that there are circumstances when a Muslim may be "compelled" to deceive others for a greater purpose.
For a better understanding of the issue, read
HISTORY of Mohammed ( spelled variously; Mahomet, Muhammed, Mehmet, etc. ).

>>>This type of conspiracy theories is so incredibly idiotic that anyone believing it should be committed.<<<
Maybe what you are saying was true before the current dictator-in-waiting came upon the scene. Call me what you will, but what I have seen concerning the destruction of our liberties in the short space that he has been in the white house is enough to convince me that anything is possible.

Just for sh!ts and grins, let's seal off Chicago. A look at a map shows that if you deploy your troops along I-294, you've got a nice, wide, flat kill zone, without cover or concealment.
This allows you to reduce the number of troop required. Cut the power, since most of the electricity generated is outside the city limits. Use image enhancement, FLIR and drone patrols, and you can see anything in the dark and kill it. Now, you can choke off any food or water going into the city. There is perhaps five days food, 24 hours of water, city wide, in stores and warehouses. Two weeks before surrender? A month until cannibalism?
I'm just a dumb ol' conservative. Imagine the super brains in the White House, and the Progressive faction in the Pentagon. These are the same guys that would claim, today, that the Ardennes Forest does not permit armored attacks...

Thanks for the explanation.
The Real Problem, IMHO, is that virtually no one outside the Ophonybama inner circle and the assorted hangers-on suckups TRUSTS anything the administration does or says!
The sonofabitch LIES!
We have a crisis in virtually every area of governance, and nothing the administration is doing seems to work to mitigate that crisis. In fact, EVERYTHING they do or say seems to make the situation worse.
Those of us who are vigilant have every right to be concerned for the future of the USA!
And, so long as Ophonybama and his LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist/Fascist thugs are in control of events both at home and abroad, we will remain so.
