    Welp, this was inevitable. Take a bow, wingnuts.

    A sheriff in Mississippi says authorities are searching for two men who fired gunshots from a vehicle at soldiers at a military facility. No injuries were reported.

    Perry County Sheriff Jimmy Dale Smith tells WDAM-TV (http://bit.ly/1UlrHi6) that the shots were fired just after noon Tuesday. The soldiers were training at Camp Shelby Joint Forces Training Center in Hattiesburg.

    U.S. Special Forces Command designated Camp Shelby as one of the sites where a multi-state military training exercise, "Jade Helm 15", was expected to take place, according to The Army Times.
    They did it on the anniversary of Breivik, too. Same psychos, different country.

      Yes. Fox is automatically DQ'd for being Fox.

          And yet more.

          North Carolina is not one of the states where the U.S. military training exercise dubbed "Jade Helm 15" is taking place this summer. Nevertheless, three men from Gaston County were charged with conspiring to arm themselves with illegal explosive devices to combat what they saw as a potential military takeover, according to court documents unsealed Monday in U.S. District Court in Charlotte.

          The documents alleged Walter Eugene Litteral, 50, Christopher James Barker, 42, and Christopher Todd Campbell, 30, stockpiled weapons and discussed how to build homemade explosive devices. Litteral also allegedly tried to purchase a firearm for Barker, who is a convicted felon.

          A tipster first contacted the FBI in June after becoming concerned that Litteral and Campbell were "preparing to use lethal force against United States government forces in order to defend against the imposition of martial law or other infringements on their rights," according to an affidavit. The affidavit noted that the two men had discussed their belief that "Jade Helm 15" was actually a cover for the implementation of martial law with the tipster.

              Great read.

              Sounds like a handful of subs could take care of criminals like this without leaving evidence, and nobody would miss them. Just sayin'.

                                Those are probably just the people that made it to a hospital to die later. The real death toll may never be known. That thing probably vaporized everyone within a few hundred feet. Incinerated everything within a thousand. And killed via internal injuries most everyone within a few thousand. I'm guessing the toll right now is around 2,000-15,000 based on how populated that area is. There are huge apartment buildings basically right across the street.
