Police Arming for War against Veterans

[Jeff]

This is disgusting, our troops do as they are told , put their lives in harms way and the thank you they get is they are now considered domestic terrorist ( I didn't see them called that in this article but ever other article I read refereed to that )

Not only has the Obama administration waged war on our veterans through the VA Scandal, now there is whole new front of attack on our veterans we have to worry about.
In a terrifying news report on the militarization of our police forces – watch as a veteran officer of the Indiana police remarks that police are having to prepare for returning veterans with the ability to make IED’s (Improvised Explosive Devices).
That’s right. One of the reasons our police forces are giving for having to become more like military forces is the soldiers returning home from the front.

LOL! It never ceases to amaze me how some folks think.

[Yeah Nope]

Far too many people believe police and military forces will refuse to attack US citizens. Some will balk at such an order, but many; possibly even the majority; will eagerly take aim when those US citizens are slapped with the label of "domestic terrorist".

There are several incidents in our history which show quite clearly that US military and police forces WILL attack unarmed US citizens under the guise of law and order. Those same incidents also show that our government will sometimes not hesitate to use such force on the citizens of this nation for whatever reason it deems appropriate.

I detest the use of "Not only has the Obama administration waged war on our veterans through the VA Scandal"

What kinda bullshit is that? That's not a war - that's simpler than war. It's a failure of leadership AND....AND it's the bullshit employees who DID the terrible things. Human nature is to skate by with the least-amount of effort possible.

Obama was informed of the VA crap 5 years ago. He ignored it because socialized medicine (bamscumcare)and weakening of our nation took precedent in his agenda. So it was actually an attack due to his placing priority in his treasonous agenda. A system set up across the nation is not haphazard laziness or ineptness IMHO. Now we see it was an institutionalized system, one Obama chose to ignore.. da buck stops with that bastard IMHO..-Tyr

he can't fix it. It's a systemic problem with people

And the exact reason why we cannot survive government-run healthcare.
Or gov't-run schools, or housing; really just about anything.

Great opinion on the militarization of our police:

I agree. It has happened many times. Look at the Kent State shootings in 1970. Four innocent people shot down by police. It can happen at any time.

Actually, those folks were shot by National Guard troops. Also, let us not forget when federal troops lead by a couple of later famous WWII general were used to clear out a veteran's march on Washington or the Whiskey Rebellion. Some might argue that the Civil War fits in this discussion as well. That's just the military. Federal police forces are and were used at Waco and Ruby Ridge to name a couple of more infamous incidents. The ATF are frequently involved in the use of force against citizens.

All of this is, of course, in the best interests and safety of our citizens.

all dicktators live in fear of being bumped off by their own people. and this is no different

[aboutime]

Since when, do we call Obama's private, new, hidden force of The New Black Panthers...veterans?
