I'd say it's training for the beginning of the end of this country as we know it.
This is exactly how the Nazi party started.
For the life of me I can't figure out why any citizen would participate in this exercise!
God help us all!
Dave, this is just a exercise, no real arms dealer involved.this a outrage that they have to resort to this kind of invasion of the public to catch a arms dealer, BUT this in no way even close to how the nazi party came to be what is was, sorry to disagree, but i have researched this very deeply. dave

It's funny that they chose the subject "arms dealers", you think that they'd use the "t" word to be more publicly accecptable. More conditioning I suspect. More fear mongering against people that have a backbone and chose to own guns.
Urban Warfare Drills Linked To Coming Economic Rage
All the so-called anti terror laws are solely aimed at repressing citizens dissent during the coming crisis.
Urban warfare training drills are taking place across the country as top analysts as well as officials predict a potential “summer of rage” across Europe and America as civil unrest from the economic fallout builds.
Earlier this month, 150 U.S. troops from the U.S. Special Operations Command whizzed around the streets of New Orleans in military helicopters and even dropped bombs in what officials described as a “training event”.
An Iowa National Guard training exercise in Arcadia, Iowa, scheduled for April was originally billed as an “invasion” before public opposition caused the drill to be scaled back. The exercise included Guard troops patrolling streets, searching houses and confiscating firearms.
No less than 2,200 U.S. Marines were also involved in urban operations training in Richmond, VIrginia, throughout January, drills that involved landing troops in populated areas, allowing military pilots to “familiarize themselves with the area.”
Military choppers hovered precariously low over parking lots as citizens were acclimated to seeing active duty military assets engaged in law enforcement style activities.
Watch a clip filmed by a startled Richmond resident who wasn’t even aware that Marines were conducting drills due to scant forewarning on behalf of authorities and the media.
Are such drills really for the purpose of preparing troops for foreign combat zones? Undoubtedly - but other factors indicate that the drills may very well also be aimed at preparing troops for dealing with mass civil unrest as the economic crisis worsens.
There’s no question that U.S. authorities have been closely observing riots that have toppled governments in Iceland and Latvia and also threatened to do so in several other European countries. The fact that they have contingency plans in place to deal with such scenarios should they unfold in America cannot be disputed.
Indeed, before a media expos? forced them into a denial, Northcom revealed that one of the duties of at least 20,000 active duty troops that are being placed inside the United States would be dealing with “civil unrest and crowd control”.
Meanwhile, millions of dollars that were set aside as part of the so-called bailout have in fact been handed over to local police departments and spent on military tools like armored vehicles, unmanned aerial surveillance drones and high-powered firearms for SWAT teams.
In addition, with many predicting that Mexico is on the verge of collapse as a result of the economic crisis and the out of control drug war, Texas officials have already established contingency plans to deal with an influx of immigrants, a program that would only address “law enforcement concerns” and not humanitarian needs.
HR 645, otherwise known as the National Emergency Centers Establishment Act, would mandate the expansion of FEMA detention camps which would likely to be used to detain illegal immigrants as well as rioting American citizens.
The prospect of widespread rioting at some stage this year is a scenario feared by many.
Police in the UK are preparing for a “summer of rage” and mass protests against the mishandling of the economic crisis by the government.
The U.S. Army War College in November released a white paper called Known Unknowns: Unconventional ‘Strategic Shocks’ in Defense Strategy Development. The report warned that the military must be prepared for a “violent, strategic dislocation inside the United States,” which could be provoked by “unforeseen economic collapse,” “purposeful domestic resistance,” “pervasive public health emergencies” or “loss of functioning political and legal order.” The “widespread civil violence,” the document said, “would force the defense establishment to reorient priorities in extremis to defend basic domestic order and human security.”
Numerous other public figures, including Senator Christopher Dodd, leading economist Nouriel Roubini, top trend researcher Gerald Celente, the head of the International Monetary Fund, the head of the World Trade Organization, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, former national security director Zbigniew Brzezinski, and Director of National Intelligence Dennis C. Blair have all warned of coming civil unrest and global instability.
Considering the expectancy for riots, it would be naive to dismiss the notion that the increasing amount of urban warfare drills taking place across the U.S. are not at least partially to prepare troops to undertake law enforcement duties should civil unrest as a consequence of the economic fallout threaten a collapse in social order.
Where in the hell did you get this? :ummm:C'mon....."Earlier this month, 150 U.S. troops from the U.S. Special Operations Command whizzed around the streets of New Orleans in military helicopters and even dropped bombs in what officials described as a ?training event?. Not that this place doesn't need to be carpet bombed but the military doesn't just go around "dropping bombs" in major US cities. You know, I will be the first to call a spade a spade (no pun intended) but I think you guy's are reading too much into all this. I would say that if anything, this is a somewhat economic way for guard and reserve units to get some decent training w/o sending them to places like JRTC (joint readiness training center at Ft Polk LA, which cost's tons of that the state will have to pay for btw), before deploying to the desert. I actually think this isn't a bad idea if done right(flame away if need be). I would imagine that they are going to go WAY out of there way not to intrude on anybody's personal life or whatever. Of course, this is just my opinion.
Let's take a cruise to Roswell NM, see the real deal!!! :rofl_200: :rofl_200: :rofl_200:Tin Foil hats for everyone on that site.
Dirtystinknape has it right, sounds like they are training to do urban searches in the sandbox. They can't just go over there and wing it.
Certainly possible but, if it's already public that the whole thing is a training exercise, why use the 'gun dealer' angle then have to deal with the resulting public outcry?
Why not "We are going to do a training exercise in Iowa to help our guys perform urban searches in the sandbox."
The training angle just doesn't fit, why lie when the truth works better?
I pulled it off a Video Website, Now that I have done some research on this topic, I should be kicked in the nuts with a frozen boot as Danny would say. The original story was written from here http://www.infowars.com/urban-warfare-drills-linked-to-coming-economic-rage/
I do not support these views from this website, Tin Foil hats for everyone on that site.
Be well
It keeps the anti-war protesters down.
That makes sense!! The anti-war folks prolly being a lot more vocal I 'spose.
