Participant[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]Enorah: Living in Fallbrook, I see Marines rolling through town all the time in LAVs, Humvees, etc, and they are always in body armor and have helmets on. Given that most of these Marine units, including the Reserve units, are at some point in the rotation cycle between CONUS and Iraq and Afghanistan, it is SOP to be battle ready at all times, so that you’re individually in the mindset of always having your protective gear on.
If it comes down to martial law, that’s going to be the bailiwick of the National Guard and not the USMC or the Regular Army. There are only a few Regular Army units that spend a considerable amount of time in crowd control, urban pacification and riot work (the 82d Airborne is one) as it is.[/quote]
Allan! We are playing “tin foil hat”
geesh!

Participant[quote=Enorah]Okay if this is going to be “that thread”
Anyone else notice an over abundance of military helicopters yesterday?
:rofl:[/quote]
Nope, I haven’t seen any but they aren’t after us. San Diego is too laid back. We don’t have people protesting the bailout in the streets. You New Yorkers took to the streets so you guys are the ones they are going to lay the smackdown on.
I wish I could find the videos. It’s better with the sound.
