Read about this case here.
The deal? Cops fear vets because they have the knowledge and ability to employ weapons at a skill that is at least equal if not greater than their own.
Additionally if that vet has maintained his physical fitness, has equipped himself with the latest gear then it becomes a case of how many cops will die before he's apprehended.
The issue is clear. Many members and former members of the military feel preyed upon by society, and the government. What happens when a wolf decides he no longer wants to be prey and then decides to become a predator? An even scarier thought...what happens when those wolves decide to form a wolf pack?
'For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.'
Sidenote: I shouldn't be surprised but as usual a few people are getting sand in their vagina's and think that I'm cheering on a cop killer. Nope. This post was to illustrate the type of destruction that a vet could do to law enforcement and to further explain why the Dept of Justice fears us. This is why people piss me off. They don't take time to read and discern. They only whine and react.
Something is going to happen, something big and something soon.
ReplyDeletePolice, with all they're new "Emergency Armoured Response Vehicles", tactical training and new weapons (both the US and UK) seem to forget that both former and current members of the forces (frontline etleast) have been trained to deal with a lot more whilst having a lot less. And these are the people they are starting to pick on and piss off?
Vets are getting back in shape and forming groups (militias if you want) and current members are starting to speak out publicly against the government, it's police and their actions.
Power crazy cops vs armed forces past and present, neither yielding? Oh boy.
Best from Scotland guys, stay alive.
you get it. you understand whats going on. many people are simply in a daze and wanting everything to be normal when it is anything but normal.
Deleteoh and i lift everyday....switched from the get big at any price attitude to the lean mean airborne scheme and ....wait for it....i started humping a ruck just to get in some hardcore cardio!
shit is going to go off the rails...
Airborne scheme... that's must be something. One of original "Red Devils", vet of Normandy... Jock Hutton jump today from plane and land on the same field he land 70 years ago. This outstanding man have 89 years... 89! If he can do that then airborne scheme must be good.
Deletewell airborne scheme simply means being as strong as possible while being as thin as possible.
Deletebefore the T-11 came along decent rates with the T-10 were so fast that injuries were common. how did the airborne solve the problem? by running your ass off! being lean was a key to avoid falling like a rock.
these days it probably still applies...i don't know. but thats the plan. get as lean and as strong as possible instead of packing on tons of muscle and not being able to move.

DeleteLean, mean, machine !
DeleteI remember a time when weight limits imposed on airborne prospects was 190 lbs ... you either were below that limit when you joined, or you got there before your first jump (or you wouldnt jump at all). Also a reason why some vets could still take on most active duty forces, on any obstacle course !
Regarding things today, i think they got a couple of accidents with T-11 that put some question marks on that parachute, but not sure the errors have all been taken care off. The Germans had a more interesting concept of triple parachute with three small canopies that would allow for assault jump as low as 80 meters altitude. One fatality during training put an end to this experimentation though.
Innovation goes towards always in same direction: increasing the weight capacity, reducing opening shock, slowing down the rate of descent (not too much either though) and limiting oscillations.
I don't get it. What happened in the video?
ReplyDeletefollow the link and you'll get the sordid details.
Delete... shit, man. Canada's gun laws are already more strict than ours. I wonder how the Canadian government will respond to this.
DeleteOh I believe the heads of the DOJ and really the current admin dislike Vets. Mainly because Vets believe in America and They don't. Now I have been through a few courses that train on how to deal with these situations and thousands of officers a year are being taught how to deal with active shooters in a uniformed manner. The classes were put together by police and the military and are taught by both. They are a large part of the push for patrol carbine programs. The standard for training is called Alerrt.
ReplyDeleteThe good, you should see more people saved in active events, not just school shootings but hostage situations, as more officers get this . The bad, the more officers learn the case law on how quickly deadly force can be used against a bad guy those that do believe the police are out to get every American will say the police are to quick to shoot.
From my own observations I do run into many more Vets over the past few years, but the number is slowing down but the encounters are further out there. It seems as if many are falling through the cracks getting help for various mental health issues. This really pisses me off due to everything these guys have done and they are just being given meds for a quick band aid to whats really going on. This causes more violent encounters between Vets and local law enforcement.
Now the majority of younger Vets I talk to are asking how my departments application process works because the need a job now that they are out.
There's plenty of reasons to despise the current Admin, but trying to blame the Admin's ineptitude on not believing in America is like saying AQ hates us because of our freedom. Why would people dedicate their lives in public service roles in order to become politicians of a country they don't believe in? It's a logical cul-de-sac.
DeleteBased on my experience, lots of guys who were 'out there' and come back to civilian life only develop mental health issues as you put it, not because of what they have been through, not even because they don't get a decent job right away, but because they come back to a country, getting the impression (wether true or false doesnt matter) that nobody gives a rats ass about the commitment and sacrifice they have made sometimes for years. Also, especially among those who don't stay in the military and get back to civies life, the gap is often too wide with the life they had in their units, where 'brotherhood', caring and trusting each other with one's life was not some abstract concept but you live it daily. It's difficult getting to grips with a world where all of a sudden you're really on your own, even though a job, family and friends support definitely make a hell of a difference.
DeleteSolo-man,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you 100% and didn't take it as being "anti-cop" at all. I agree that something is coming. Just what and in what form, I don't know, but I'm trying to get ready.
Ex-Mil types are a problem for the powers that be, due to their training and experience. Just look at what Dorner did in SoCal. He was a very rudimentally-trained police officer and he had SOME military training, but not very extensive. He put the entire LAPD on lock-down, as well as most of LA County and San Bernardino County Law Enforcement. The LAPD has almost 10,000 cops. When you count all the other agencies, it's probably closer to 20k. For ONE GUY. If he would've actually had a plan and made preparations, he would've wreaked absolute havoc down there, instead of just making shit up as he went along. SoCal got lucky that time. They might not be so lucky next time.
Look at what happened in Mumbai. There were only 10 DUDES! And they paralyzed the entire Indian Police and Military force.
Military people (and their T&E) are nothing to sneeze at and very big problem for the traitors in our government. I'm retired from the mil and also a former Police Officer and Deputy Sheriff and I guarantee I could do a lot more damage than Dorner did. And that's not bluster.
Get ready, because it's coming...
THANK YOU!!!!! YOU GET IT!!!!! why people refuse to see whats right in front of them is beyond me but its obvious.
Deletethe issue with Dorner is on the money too. one guy. one guy basically paralyzed a few brigades worth of LEOs in LA. same in Boston. two guys caused a lockdown of a major US city.
they're not ready and they're scared that we're getting ready!
