"Once I observed the map depicting ‘hostile,’ ‘permissive,’ and ‘uncertain’ states and locations, I was rather appalled that the hostile areas amazingly have a Republican majority, ‘cling to their guns and religion,’ and believe in the sanctity of the United States Constitution. When the federal government begins, even in practice, games or exercises, to consider any U.S. city or state in ‘hostile’ control and trying to retake it, the message becomes extremely calloused and suspicious."

The government has been doing some strange things in the last decade without any reasonable explanation... Why would non-military government agencies stockpile ammunition?
The paranoia is... well... expected.

US Postal Service Joins in Federal Ammo Purchases
Add the U.S. Postal Service to the list of federal agencies seeking to purchase what some Second Amendment activists say are alarmingly large quantities of ammunition.

SPC Jan Allbright do you have any idea what terrible shots some federal agents are? After over a quater of century as a federal law enforcement I have no doubts about it especially a certain federal law enforcement officer who had an accident discharge that cost him his left testicle!!!! People who have seen my cell phone see his first name with the appelation "ONE NUT" behind it!!!

It's the RIO Grand just outside of Ft Bliss SPC Jan Allbright, M.Sc., R.S. with all the locals trying to cross over from Juarez! OK I exaggerate, but the RIO Grand was barely a puddle in that area last time I was out there.

Ladies and Gentlemen....this is what happens when you take off the tin foil hat.
In all seriousness, I'm amazed at the paranoia that people have as of late. The 160th SOAR(A) flew threw Minneapolis, generating "mass hysteria" about a potential terrorist attack or invasion (In Minnesota?? From whom....the Canadians?). People are upset about training on US soil.....but where else are they supposed to train? Should we invade Mexico as a "practice"? Deploy entire divisions back to Iraq to "simulate"? There are many aspects of our freedoms to be ok with being paranoid about....this is one that I would hold few reservations towards.
Hell, if you really wanna go "full theory", it gives you an opportunity to observe the tactics utilized by the SF/military guys...so you get to observe them and study movements.
v/r,

This is why we have the 2nd amendment. If they plan to take Texas, they will have one hell of a fight on their hands.

What was fake on the Internet this week: Game of 72, beard poop and Jade Helm 15
There is so much fake stuff on the Internet in any given week that we’ve grown tired of debunking it all. Fake Twitter fights. Fake pumpkin-spice products. Amazing viral video? Nope — a Jimmy Kimmel stunt!

What is your opinion of this Jade Helm business? I've only heard about it in the last few days and I don't know if I have all the information I need to have an educated opinion about it.

I tried to find some DoD / DoA briefing papers .. and Google is 120% submerged in conspiracy type stuff. This is as close as I can find to anything that even approachs the real steel.

The truth behind Jade Helm 15 conspiracy theories
Jade Helm 15 is a special forces training exercise scheduled to take place this summer across seven Southwestern states. It has sparked strong opposition and elaborate conspiracy theories. When Lt. Col. Mark Lastoria answered questions about the operation at a public meeting last month in Bastrop County, Texas, he heard inquiries about everything from whether the troops might leave a gate open on someone's property to whether they planned to...

The scary thing, and why I'm so conflicted on this is... I can actually see the side of the tin foil hat brigade. The military vehicles in police departments could be a slow and quiet way to place assets, asking "permission" of county governments could be like a thief posing as the gas company politely asking permission to enter your home.
On the other side of this, I see the legitimate need to train in unconventional ways because we need to change tactics like the British had to do after colonialists didn't march in formation and square up against their infantry.
I guess all of the distrust stems from the top. Everything that has been said since 2008 has been the complete opposite of what was done or meant. For instance "this will be the most transparent administration " and then blocking access to records, exempting the presidents personal records from inspection and white house records from FOIA requests. Trust and respect flow from the top down and I don't feel either and haven't for the last 25 years.
