Found this in an email from the Glen Beck program. Thought I should share it. Very interesting and scary at the same time. Can you say Police State?

This has been covered in a couple of other posts. The numbers involved are insignificant, About 400 per state. That might be intimidating in Rhode Island, but would be swallowed in any of the others.

And many of us disagree with Tom.

This is a big deal and has potential for very bad precedents.

In the past there were comments of training some of our troops have been receiving.  Can't remember where it was or when, but the basics were of our fighting men and women being questioned as to whether or not they would be able to take up arms against Americans.  The discussion talked about this type of thing - troops being deployed in our cities.  Speculation was confiscation of arms and other matters.

Does anyone else remember this discussion?  I curious to look back at some of the references cited there.

Alex Jones was on Coast to Coast Am last night talking about this very thing.  Here's a link to his website:

The danger is the precedent.  And remember, the average of 400 per state is an INITIAL deployment.

Like I posted on the other thread about this, Look at the units, They are NBC, Medical, and Supply, this should have been done years ago.

This deployment, is an idea, and an action that needs to go back to hell where it came from.
