    Re: Nice Planet IX: Oh that's just GREAT...

    Christmas comes early for FlagDude.

    Jade Helm 15, the controversial Special Operations exercise that spawned a wave of conspiracy theories about a government takeover, will open next week without any media allowed to observe it, a military spokesman said.

    Embedded reporters won’t be permitted at any point during the exercise, in which military officials say that secretive Special Operations troops will maneuver through private and publicly owned land in several southern states.

      Bush and company lied saying that Saddam was making WMD's at the time when they weren't and they knew that he wasn't. If them finding over a decade old abandoned stockpiles meant anything other than a direct exposure of their lies, we would still be hearing about it daily on Fox News for how "right" republicans were. There would have been parades in the street celebrating them actually finding something they claimed when they sold the war to the public.

      So no, you're wrong again, you incompetent illogical ****head.

        I wonder if some of the landowners, particularly in Texas, will hold armed watches to try and "arrest" troops that trespass on their private land. If so, things could get fun.

          I'm shocked Nevada didn't get on the hostile list because of the Bundy ranch. Maybe the sizable miliary force in the state allowed it to receive the classification it did.

            Doing drills in the middle of the US, the troops will not likely have live rounds in their weapons but the Texans would.

              It's a Catch-22 for us. If the Texans fight back, the feds declare a state of emergency, impose martial law, and all heck breaks loose. If they stand by and do nothing, the feds detemine that Texas is neutralized, and impose martial law without a fear of retaliation. The latter already worked in Boston after the marathon bombing, so they know they can get away with it.

                If we don't stop this, pretty soon Texas will be under the control of the United States.

                  That's what you respond with?

                  Thanks for proving my point.

                    No, if the Texans fire on the soldiers or take any of them into custody, then the Army will withdraw its troops and call in the civillian authorities to have these people prosecuted. Then they'll reschedule the mission and carryout the drill as originally intended. Not everything gets turned up to 11 at a moment's notice.

                          John Kerry also went to Yale. Don't let that spoil your argument, though.

                            According to our Ivy League friends though, aren't Cs at an Ivy League institution the equivalent of an A- at a state school?
