If only that were true...
The TX governor is using National Guard troops to monitor US troops involved in this training exercise. That means tax dollars being wasted on this at the very least.

Not to mention the cost of the exercise itself. Is this type of training that useful or necessary? I don't know.

Isn't the $4 million a mile fence good enough?

get partially up a climb...

then take aim and fire!!!...

I recall pantomiming those times of scenes while penduluming around at the bottom of a top rope, creating a sort of James Bond movie scene.

Imagine doing that with a real shotgun, and letting the momentum launch you around while free-hanging at the end of a rope!

I watched the national news folks belittle the govenor of Texas last night, similar to the flack Ron is getting here. We need to all wake up to reality. This Jade Helm is not to overthrow the patriots or anycrap like that. It is training for the very near future when the dollar collaspes to nothing, because it is coming. There will be shutdown of virtually everything we know. Starvation, rioting, anarchy, you name it. Its comng, the government knows it, and they are getting ready for it. You should two. The sh#t is goung to hit the fan lke nothing we have ever seen here before. It is inevitable. Be prepared my friends, its not going to be pretty.

Unless the criminals running the show decide to self-nuke a few cities for effect (aka "ISIS" did it!), I doubt it'll be that drastic.

More than likely we're in for a long.... slow..... rot...... Historically speaking there's a lot to decay in an empire this big and that takes time.

The MIC is turning it's attention inward against itself because that's what empires do when in decline.

Look, you're only allowed to shoot off the rope if you're rapping aussie style using black steel ovals.

Ron: I was speaking to one of my (Canadian) Army buddies about this, and he was really pissed off that they hadn't been put on alert to help seal the border so that none of you "patriots" could escape here from this massive dragnet.

There's a deficiency in the name search engine.

e.g.

The Carpet and Rug Institute, Inc. President Werner Braun to Retire [Dalton, Georgia, November 13, 2013]

Tunnels are cool places to hide anything. Especially stuff that would
embarrass the man. Like the cubic mile of 9mm pistol ammunition Homeland bought up over the last few.

Little does anyone know the plight of a bombed out shell of a town located on the border of north San Diego/south Orange County. This town called MOUT has never known liberty or freedom of the surrounding cities. Always the focus of riot control, urban operation tactits, humanitarian aide supply point, etc. the citizens are "voluntold" to participate and are culled from the surrounding population and forced to play the aggressor. They are under a constant barrage of "oc" spray, baton and riot shield, sim bullets, etc. the only intervening authority is known as long rifle and they only really want to know when the range is cold for the night. It's a sad state of affairs.

You mean the United States special operation command wants to train United States operators here in the United States for special operations....hope no one ever finds out what goes on at 29 palms.

Very interesting article noting that activists in Baltimore and conspiracy affecniados both fear police and military power. Yet the largely white jade helm bunch are concerned over the far fetched takeover of Texas by a black president instead of the real life military/police oppression black people fear everyday.
