I believe that Jade Helm is just another military training event.
By next September no one will have anything to say about it because
nothing will have happened as a result of it. If I'm wrong and they
somehow manage to put all 330 million of us into FEMA camps then I will
admit I'm wrong. But I would bet dollars to doughnuts that all the
scare mongers will refuse to admit they were wrong if nothing happens.

This
is simply untrue. The U.S. Special Operations community has been
training in civilian areas for many decades. The Robin Sage exercise
that serves as the culmination of the Special Forces Qualification
Course has been held in central North Carolina for over 40 years. While
Robin Sage is the best known, there are many other, smaller, training
exercises happening on a pretty much continuous basis. This sort of
thing is neither new nor exceptional.
Guys, unless specifically told not to, I'll post the reply here in the blog so everyone can read it. I'll just leave the first name, and remove the last name, email or any other specific information for privacy reasons. Thanks
