Armored Military Vehicles To Patrol Wisconsin Neighborhoods
Model previously used to hunt insurgents in Afghanistan

Armored military vehicles of the type used to hunt for insurgents in Afghanistan are set to patrol roads in Sheboygan County, Wisconsin as part of a training exercise on behalf of the U.S. Army Reserve.
“(Capt. William) Geddes said the U.S. Army Reserve wanted to alert the public to the training dates so residents are not alarmed when a pack of heavily armored military vehicles is driving around the county,” reports Sheboyganpress.com.
The exercises are being run despite the fact that troops driving the M1117 Armored Security Vehicles have already received their basic training. “They’re vehicles that these military officers might use if they’re deployed, patrol vehicles,” Geddes said, adding that the drills were to ensure that officers didn’t get “rusty” in handling the M1117s.
The vehicles, which have been used overseas in Afghanistan, are described as being “strange,” “intimidating” and “heavily armored,” while being the same size as a large SUV.
Local authorities have apparently not even been briefed about the planned exercises, which will run until August 17.
“Sheboygan County Administrator Adam Payne said he had not heard about the training exercises. Two city officials declined to comment, because they also had heard nothing about the training,” states the report.

Geddes urged citizens not to create safety hazards on the roads by stopping to gaze at the vehicles.
The increasing phenomena of military training drills taking place away from military bases and amidst the general public has led to fears that the American people are being acclimatized to accept a potential future declaration of martial law.
Back in June, residents in St Louis were shocked to see heavily armored U.S. Army vehicles patrolling neighborhoods as part of an exercise. However, the local media responded by featuring ‘vox pops’ interviews with people who supported the use of the military in order to “cut down on crime,” despite the fact that using the Army for domestic law enforcement is forbidden under the Posse Comitatus Act.
Advocating that America ape foreign countries where troops patrol the streets, one resident told Fox 2, “I think it’s the same way when you go to other countries…they don’t have police officers they have troops, and I think it kind of scares a lot of people…it might cut down on a whole lot of crime because they don’t know if they’re military or the police.”
“I think it’s fantastic because it might slow down some of the crime rate,” added another.
Predictions of mass civil unrest have fueled fears that the federal government and the U.S. Army are gearing up for domestic disorder. Both the U.S. Army and the Department of Homeland Security recently purchased large quantities of riot gear in anticipation of trouble at the upcoming DNC, RNC and the presidential inauguration. The DHS has also purchased 450 million rounds of .40 caliber hollow point bullets.
A recently leaked US Army Military Police training manual for “Civil Disturbance Operations” outlines how military assets are to be used domestically to quell riots, confiscate firearms and even kill Americans on U.S. soil during mass civil unrest.
On page 20 of the manual, rules regarding the use of “deadly force” in confronting “dissidents” are made disturbingly clear with the directive that a, “Warning shot will not be fired.”
As an example of how high tensions are running, the following You Tube video, which shows over a hundred tanks being transported through Burbank, California, is also causing consternation amongst those that fear some form of martial law could be just around the corner.

This is definitely "over the top". It's a psychological ploy to get people used to this sort of thing. It will not slow crime down. Crimes are committed when no patrols are around and police only respond AFTER a crime has been commited. The best way to prevent and/slow down crime is for everyone to be armed.

The Murderers Auxillary is on the roll! Oh. Excuse me. If the motive is not to frighten and kill the general public, it must be over indulgence in the bondage freak department of the military budget. I would check and see if the military hardware purchasing agent has doled out the hollow-point ammunition to help in training these shaved monkeys how to drive up and down American streets.

Police,military,illuminati, these are people like us,ok,many are not like us,they speak Chinese or some other foreign language. These people have families,kids in school,going to the store,all doing the same things we do. Start killing families army, nd can safely say you and yours will be targeted as well and they don't have armour. Oh,when the elite go underground,you will not go with them. Boys in uniform,if any are reading this,you really need to think hard about what you are doing and to who.

I'll try Laser. I'm not sure where they are actually going to be training at. Sheboygan County is a pretty big county and mostly rural so I'm sure they'll be out in the country somewhere. Like I said, I'll have to keep my eyes and ears open and be armed with a camera and vid camera just in case ;)

Tara take picture LOTS of pictures, video too! Try to interview them if you get a chance, just ram a mic in their face and start asking questions like "did your regular training areas get bombed out, sold or shut down or is this training for martial law and to take on American citizens when the economy collapses?" If you can get that out in front of the commander or even the subordinates if they stop and just get a facial reaction that would be priceless!

Training in American citys is becoming a habit with these guys ... I wonder If they'd mind the militia having a training exercise on one of their bases? O right it would be out of place and unnecessary because the militia isn't planing to defend or attack military bases.

I live in Sheboygan. Hmm, I'll have to keep my eyes and ears open to what is going on with this. It's hard to believe this is literally going to happen in my own backyard now. And the local authorities are kept in the dark about it, as usual. The Government and military do whatever they please now and if we protest or demand answers, it just doesn't matter. They'll do it regardless. Crazy days we live in I tell ya.
