The authorities aren't even hiding it anymore. We are the enemy.
http://www.wsaz.com/news/headlines/Mock-Disaster-Training-Exercise-in-Scioto-County-187322931.html PORTSMOUTH, Ohio (WSAZ) -- A dead science teacher, weapons of mass destruction, first responders in hazmat suits and the Ohio Army National Guard all near the Municipal Stadium in Portsmouth, Thursday. There's no cause for alarm -- this is just a drill! The mock disaster training exercise is being done with Scioto County first responders and the Ohio Army National Guard 52nd Civil Support Unit. "It's the reality of the world we live in," says Portsmouth Police Chief Bill Raisin. "Don't forget there is such a thing as domestic terrorism. This helps us all be prepared." The make-believe scenario is timely. Two school employees who are disgruntled over the government's interpretation of the Second Amendment, plot to use chemical, biological and radiological agents against members of the local community. |

LOL. The scenario is so over-blown and stereotypical that they are probably less prepared now then they were before they did this little "exercise".
|
|
EVERY contingency is trained for. Not a big deal. Shit like this has been trained for years and years. It is nothing new.
|
|
"Thwart" really isn't fitting here. This isn't a drill preparing to shoot it out with citizens. Civil support teams deal with assisting local 1st responders with dealing with and responding to HAZMAT incidents. We train with them all the time. FD HAZMAT here.

Citizens are always completely harmless and never ever think about hurting anybody. lol

Citizens are always completely harmless and never ever think about hurting anybody. lol But two second amendment proponents who just happen to be "school employees", given the recent Newtown tragedy. But they aren't just angry that their 2nd amendment right are under attack. They are vengeful nihilists who want wreak havoc on their local community with a NBC attack. Who wrote this ridiculous scenario???? |

You must have an AMAZING training budget!
Here the training revolves around more typical things as there is both limited time and budget. I will note that the propaganda is often exposed to first responders to condition them to the language first and the actions later. It use to be child abuse was the boogieman, now it's supporters of the Second Amendment. Once you're demonized/dehumanized the military might of the state can be used against you. Quoted:

They kent do that! What you did there................ I sees it! |

....they should have just done a Beslan re-enactment, since that is much more likely...in an attempt at
trading kids for the Blind Sheik or something. |
|
There are a few liberal extremists in the national gaurd. I guess when they get in positions of power training scenarios like that can happen.
Nothing I would be concerned about. |
|
So two janitors from the school who happen to be shooting buddies accidentally mix bleach and ammonia to mop the floors with.... OH The NOES!
|
|
Demonizing the opposition is the fist step in winning compliance! If they called us Constitutional patriots or 2nd Amendment freedom fighters it wouldn't go over as well. It will only get worse from here on out, because they’re losing the propaganda war against guns.

I cound understand response drills for an attack on a state capitol building or one directed at a political party's headquarters. But on a school?????? And with NBCs?????? When did 2nd amendment advocates morph into Al Qaeda???

Why the hell would a second amendment supporter use chemical weapons against innocent civilians, or anybody for that matter? That makes no sense and is completely unrealistic.

Hopefully 20-30 pro 2d Amendment supporters with signs will walk their perimeter and invite the press. Play the gun-grabber's game against them.

According to Biden it's called the "Gumshoe" loophole and needs to be closed. |

And elsewhere in the world Al Qaeda just killed a bunch of people in Algeria, the Libyan Ambassador is dead along with 3 other people and the ATF and Obama administration armed Mexican drug lords.

Would it not be more appropriate for the Ohio NG be preparing to prevent efforts by Federal forces from interfering with Ohio's extensive firearm manufacturing industries?

Its a scare tactic to make people think twice. 'oh they are prepared, maybe we shouldnt do this.'
|

ironic that Portsmouth is the Pill Mill Capital of Ohio, KY and WV too.

Thread 1: We should prepare for insurrection and Northern Ireland/Bosnia style guerrilla warfare against the government!!!
Thread 2: Why the fuck is the government training its troops to respond to domestic terror attacks?!?!?!? |

I think a Gun Show is coming up in a few weeks. Maybe the guy selling LAW Rockets will be back this time too |

thats not too far from me, kind of a bullcrap excuse for a practice scenario...

Except your wrong and shows that, like the majority, you know nothing about exercises. The scenario is overblown to include as many aspects as possible. The idea is that everyone gets to exercise what they need to be exercising on a regular basis, plus, they get to exercises it with higher echelon leadership levels as well as adjacent/tertiary units. While it seems overblown in overview, it looks like it allowed the Ohio National Guard to test a great many things. This will enable them to find the faults in their methods and begin the process of fixing them and re-training themselves. |

By assisting, do you mean eating all the chow in the cold zone while HAZMAT makes entry? |

Same crap the leftists always do, redefine the opposition to make them look like the evil ones. I wonder who in the white house called this play in. |

They had to do that in OH. If they did it on the WV side, the drilling team would have probably lost.
