This was inevitable. The rumors of martial law are flying...

I wonder why the Pentagon always does this.  Something is hot in the news and that's when they suddenly see the need to move tons of armor around.

The problem with this move?

The Pentagon canceled all exercises.  So in actuality it really doesn't make sense.

BUT!

I don't think (even if they were to declare martial law) that tanks would be needed.  Gunned up JLTVs and Humvees would do the do without the infrastructure damage.

Still.

Gotta wonder what's going on with all the pics of large amounts of armor being moved around.  Didn't post it but I saw a Tweet showing damn near a brigades worth of Bradley's on a train headed to destination unknown.
