Correction:
A non-lethal crowd control package fielded to 1st Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, described in the original version of this story, is intended for use on deployments to the war zone, not in the U.S., as previously stated.

If you really wanted to find the truth you would have no problems finding it.
ThatsJustWeird
There is absolutely nothing right about that article, except that troops will be spending dwell time in Ft. Stewart. There are several LONG threads on ATS already about this. They will NOT be deployed in the streets anywhere and just about everything in that link is taken out of context. That is by NO MEANS a reliable source btw.
ThatsJustWeird
Why are you giving out false titles?
ThatsJustWeird
You have any thing at all to back your ridiculous statement?
Yeah, didn't think so.
Look, what you want to be true and what you wish to be true is NOT the same as reality buddy. That's the bottom line.
ThatsJustWeird
“If we go in, we’re going in to help American citizens on American soil, to save lives, provide critical life support, help clear debris, restore normalcy and support whatever local agencies need us to do, so it’s kind of a different role,”
Meaning what? Meaning in any disaster, they will be directed by LOCAL authorities. They are not authorized nor ever will be to take command of anything domestic.
ThatsJustWeird
They reason they're doing this training, as stated in other articles, was in response to what they have seen overseas and to be used overseas.
ThatsJustWeird
Titor is in a shotgun infantry right? So when they're attacking with shotguns, do you honestly think the army will be using pepper spray or tasers to fight back?

The truth is your incapable of giving a brief explanation or avoiding the non-lethal issue. When Titor said "great many “non lethal” weapon systems in development that turn out to be quite lethal." Taser has demonstrated this full well with it's lethality and is still in development, I don't think you can explain that one away.
Those US objectives could be to setup martial law, in which FEMA sources say there is plan for.
That link is a reliable source written by Naomi Wolf a true Patriot speaking the truth.
As titorite has pointed out, it's not false.
The Air Force Lt. Col. says "there is a huge storage of lethal and nonlethal weapons there." Your welcome to call them as well lol.
However it's my opinion those weapons are not there to be stored away, they are there to be used domestically which coincides with the original story.
As I explained above about "Civil-Military Operation." If a U.S. objective is to take command domestically they will do it.
Yeah Sure..... I would bet what they learned overseas will be used here.
Non-lethal weapons can be used in a way to degrade the enemy's war fighting capabilities. With it they could see crowds disperse preventing aggressive actions during war. Titor was saying most of those non-lethals will be used on us, not so much overseas.
John Titor: You don’t really think the Marines are going to jump out of helicopters overseas with sticky goop, pepper spray and seizure lights, do you?

From the link:
So the headline read this: Brigade homeland tours start Oct. 1
and inside the article read : They may be called upon to help with civil unrest and crowd control.
So whats with you ignoring things that go against your argument?
You would make a lousy debater in the fight club.
ThatsJustWeird
1. Tasers were around when Titor was. They are NOT new. They are NOT any more lethal now than they were then. If Titor says NEW weapon SYSTEMS are in DEVELOPMENT, then I would take that to mean new weapon systems in development.
2. Side question. You know, EVERY police officer that has a taser MUST go through taser training, which means they have to have tasers used on them. Why do we not have thousands of police deaths?

link?
www.dailynewscaster.com...
FEMA sources have told Madsen today that the Bush administration is putting final touches on a plan that would initiate martial law in the event of continuing economic collapse causing massive social unrest, bank closures resulting in violence against financial institutions and another fraudulent presidential election that would result in rioting in major cities and campuses around the country.
ThatsJustWeird
Reliable sources can be backed by facts and confirmed by other reliable sources.
I'll wait for you to provide such information.
ThatsJustWeird
Anyway, as EVERYONE ELSE ON EARTH pointed out , your title is extremely false
www.armytimes.com...
They may be called upon to help with civil unrest and crowd control or to deal with potentially horrific scenarios such as massive poisoning and chaos in response to a chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or high-yield explosive, or CBRNE, attack
ThatsJustWeird
wtf are you talking about?
We're not talking about crowds or protesters here, we're talking about organized armies fighting back.
ThatsJustWeird
AGAIN, EXACTLY.
When was the last time you saw a marine with any of that crap? They have the best guns and weapons and are the best trained in the U.S. military. That's what they use. Not kids toys. You really are in a dream world aren't you?
Non-lethal weapons instructors from III Marine Expeditionary Force's Special Operations Training Group and the Marine Corps Base Provost Marshal's Office teamed up during the weeklong training to teach the Division Marines crowd control techniques using such weapons.

Imitator I applaud your tenacity. BUt I feel some folks just aren't gonna get it. ThatsJustWeird and the others like him are willing to act like george bush and lie right to your face despite having truth written on the walls around them.
Like the Armytimes article you quote. Its all there in black and white and the fellow is still saying its a lie....

I find it interesting the way you think lol...but you got to be kidding me. Do you think Taser has no NEW weapon systems in developent?
1. John Titor left in 2001, the famous TASER X26 was NEW in 2003 and changed everything about Taser, the death rate with Taser before 2003 was almost nonexistent, since X26 was introduced the death rate has climbed drastically. These NEW lethal toys where not there in 2001. The new design in 2003 made them more lethal than previous Taser weapons. For example: the M26 waveform uses a high frequency short duty cycle. X26 waveform uses low frequency continuous duty cycle.
2. You don't see many old or overweight police with Tasers, police usually have or advised to take a physical exam before Taser training, The reality is most civilians with pre-existing medical conditions have no choice of taking a physical exam before being Taser, thus you have so many deaths.
With Taser police are playing Russian roulette with civilians.
