Its "newspeak" if I may borrow from George Orwell. The real meaning is unspoken & between the lines.

I suspect you are correct. Obama is currently purging the military of traditionalists and Christians, while embracing progressives, homosexuals and Muslims. He is indeed arming civilian agencies- yes, even Alaska got two of those vehicles you speak of- so there is forming a civilian "army" probably loyal to his ilk.

In recent years I have noticed Fish and Wildlife and U.S. Forest Service armed with Glocks and M&P 40s when I encounter them on the trails. My dad worked for the USFS for 30 years out on trails and never carried a sidearm (though he sometimes carried a rifle in bear country). These people scare me.

Recently a lead plant shut down because it could not keep up with EPA requirements. Lots of things happening that Americans should be very concerned about... if they would just look up from their dumb texting phones and pay attention.

"................ if they would just look up from their dumb texting phones and pay attention.................."

thats not gonna happen - its getting worse , when two people text each other sitting next to each other in the back seat of a car im at a loss to have hope for the future , or hope for this country , 

im exposed to a lot of LEO and such every week , they love the toys they are getting and do not question the source as its nearly free , i hear very justifiable reasons for it being a good thing , what bothers me is the short sighted vision of most folks when it comes to big picture political plans , sure - taking hunting as an example , eliminate lead - what will it be next , everything equates to jobs and freedom , but when its gone its too late

Yep. Out Lawing lead projectiles is a step towards total controle of Fire Arms ...If you take the ability to smelt and cast a lead round ..then you have the battle won before you take the weapons and the Ammo !!!

I just had a "discussion" with a liberal friend about the U.N. Arms treaty.
He says its NOT a constitutional issue because the UN is external & the Constitution is internal, so they are separate issues.
My point to him was once in place it's easy to change something else to make it have an internal effect (beyond the obvious).
He says It'll never happen. Then Holder pushes for U.N. Treaties to over ride the constitution internally.
He seems to have gone deaf in both eyes because he's not responding to my "I told you so!" e-mails.

I'm a Canadian and that sounds a bit fish. It almost sound like he is trying to replace the old idea of having militia (the reason to have a well armed citizenry), which plays to your second amendment rights to bear arms. It almost looks like he's looking for a backdoor into promoting stricter gun control, by degrading the reasons, for your right to bear arms.
