Here’s one example of what’s being floated on the net:

Whe you look at the Army Times article itself,no “dark mysteries” or conspiracies appear. The Brigade has been rotated in for specialized training in containing serious breakdowns of authority: a type of training that has been carried out for decades in this country-and that always seems to elicit wild responses.
You don’t have to agree. Just tell me how he’s done well for Freedom and Republicanism.

I canceled my subscription years ago because of it’s liberal take on military issues.
sobieski, STOP expecting so damn much from REPUBLICANS and you won’t be disappointed.
Since 9/11, our Constitutional rights have been systematically dismantled by a REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT!
1. USA Patriot Act - A 342 page document presented to Congress one day before voting on it that allows the government access to your bank and email accounts, as well as your medical and phone records with no court order. They can also search your home anytime without a warrant.
2. USA Patriot Act II - This one allows secret government arrests, the legal authority to seize your American citizenship, and the extraction of your DNA if you are deemed a potential terrorist.
3. Military Commissions Act of 2006 - Ends habeas corpus, the right to an attorney, and the right to court review of one’s detention and arrest. Without this most basic right, all other rights are gone too since anyone can be detained indefinitely. Now anyone may be arrested and incarcerated and nobody would know.
4. NSPD 51 - A directive signed by George W. Bush on May 9, 2007, that allows the President to declare martial law, effectively transforming the U.S. into a dictatorship with no checks and balances from the Legislative or Judicial Branches. Parts of this directive are considered classified and members of Congress have been denied the right to review it.
5. Protect America Act of 2007 - Allows unprecedented domestic wiretapping and surveillance activities with a reduction in FISA court oversight. Probable cause is not needed.
6. John Warner Defense Authorization Act - Signed by George W. Bush on October 17, 2007, this act allows the President to declare a public emergency and station troops anywhere in America without the consent of the governor or local authorities to “suppress public disorder.”
7. Homegrown Terrorism and Radicalization Act - Passed overwhelmingly by Congress on October 23, 2007, is now awaiting a Senate vote. This act will beget a new crackdown on dissent and the Constitutional rights of American citizens. The definitions of “terrorism” and “extremism” are so vague that they could be used to generalize against any group that is working against the policies of the Administration. In this bill, “violent radicalization” criminalizes thought and ideology while “homegrown terrorism” is defined as “the planed use of force to coerce the government.” The term, “force” could encompass political activities such as protests, marches, or any other form of non-violent resistance.

Yopur answer, while true is not what I expected. Don’t hide behind the Bible. Our leaders are allowing Muslims to invade America. Soon we will have Sharia laws where they won’t have to live under our criminal laws. What do we do then?
Thank you for the laugh. Shakes head, and they said his mind was going...riiiiight. THEIR minds were going ; P
Tatt
So it appears that is where we are at...so how can we expect anything different than what we have today. We can not be a free people if we do not serve the Lord daily in our lives. We can take a lesson from the Israelites of old...they forgot The Lord and lived like hell and were judged for that.

Need some help here,,,(dumb ol’GI),,,
Which one is gunna come Kill me if I don’t “Mind” ?,,,
That sumbitch Willy Penn ? or Arbusto ?...:0/
Right over? No, I ducked out of the way because I don’t think non religous threads are the place to discuss religion, even if it is Sunday. I happen to disagree with your idea that everyone in America MUST serve the Lord daily in their lives. It is a personal decision if anyone chooses to serve the Lord or not and I am not the one who is going to tell them wether or not they are conducting themselves properly in that area. That’s between them and the Lord.
That is why this country is in the mess it is. You might want to truly study the Founders of this country; they knew if people went about there own way with out The Lord this country would be doomed. I can see you don’t have a clue the difference between religion and a true walk with The Lord. It’s an every day way of life not on Sunday morning. That statement tells me why we are on the downward path we are on. Trust me The Lord knows how to get a man or woman on their knees and it will not be pretty.

It’s all part of Homeland Security. The military’s part of the pie is “Northcom” aka Northern Command aka Homeland Command.
Just in case of needing to control crowds in case of pandemics, major natural disasters, or a major terrorist attack. Or anything else that leads to a breakdown in civil order.....
What makes you think this will be used by the “right” hands?
Too true; too true.
No to nation building, wars in far-off countries.
Bring them home.
