Operation Jade Helm begins in July and will last for eight weeks. Soldiers will operate in and around towns in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah and Colorado where some of them wil drop from planes while carrying weapons loaded with blanks in what military officials have dubbed Realistic Military Training.

They are scared most of Texas and Utah... Fancy that.. Per capita gun ownership in those two states probably in the top five in the country...

This has been done for years. I came across SF troops in the bottom swamps of NE Mississippi (1984) that were to evade locals and they were to survive in swampy lowland areas. I was on horseback and used to the area and rode right up on them with them in camouflage. The area was so far out of the way they didn’t expect me.

Everyone go outside and point at random guys on the street and shout, "NAVY SEAL, NAVY SEAL, NAVY SEAL!!!"

Good grief, they are Americans, right? It'd be pretty pitiful if these born-and-bred American boys could not blend in with other Americans.

It is obvious that if Islamoterrorists and incurable
diseases and black-on-white attacks do not destroy
America, the Tyrant-King (Moslem, Indonesia) will
use America’s own military to murder Americans
as soon as he is able.

Relax, it’s just a large scale “Robin Sage Exercise” similar to the ones that have been taking place in North Carolina for the past fifty-five years.

No they’re not scared. Most of America is apathetic and passive, and not tuned in. They know that.

Our CW cavalry reenactment group attacked a bivouac of TN ANG troops early dawn on a Sunday morning back in 1985. The Commander and First Sergeant were in on it and we rattled the whole bunch.

Texas and Utah hostile. California and Nevada friendly. Arizona slightly towards friendly. New Mexico populations can go either way.

Yeah, “exercise”.
