War, War, War See other War, War, War Articles Title: Drill Characterizes “Disgruntled” Second Amendment Advocates as Terrorists Ohio exercise centers around WMD plot Paul Joseph Watson A safety exercise involving police, national guard and emergency management officials in Portsmouth, Ohio was centered around the premise that individuals disgruntled over the governments interpretation of the Second Amendment plotted to use weapons of mass destruction to terrorize the local community. The exercise, which took place yesterday, was run by the Ohio Army National Guard 52nd Civil Support Unit, Scioto County first responders as well as local law enforcement. The make-believe scenario is timely, reports WSAZ News Channel 3, Two school employees who are disgruntled over the governments interpretation of the Second Amendment, plot to use chemical, biological and radiological agents against members of the local community. The drill revolved around the scenario of the two pro-second amendment advocates killing a teacher before setting up a chemical lab to develop weapons of mass destruction. Portsmouth Fire Chief Bill Raison said the exercise was necessary due to the threat of domestic terrorism. Most people think its not very likely. But we forget that theres a lot of domestic terrorism. Theres organizations and things that go on within the United States that can be every bit as devastating as the international terrorism is. The Oklahoma City bombing was a domestic terrorist event. So we need to understand that those kinds of potential are here on a domestic level. And then also I think we need to remember that were not exempt from international terrorism. In fact, if I wanted to terrorize this country I would terrorize small town America, Raison told the Portsmouth Daily Times. The portrayal of pro-second amendment advocates as violent terrorists is sure to raise some eyebrows amidst a national debate about gun control following the Sandy Hook school massacre. However, as we have exhaustively documented in the past, this is by no means the first time that Americans with constitutionalist political views have been demonized as dangerous radicals by both federal and state authorities in the context of so-called safety drills. A 2009 New York Times report detailed how Homeland Security was training boy scouts to take on and disarm disgruntled veterans who are described as terrorists. A number of drills have also been focused around the scenario of homeschooling parents turning into violent terrorists, including an exercise for the Muskegon Area Intermediate School District in 2004 which depicted a fictitious radical group called Wackos Against Schools bombing a school bus full of children. Alex Jones has documented foreign troops being trained on U.S. soil to deal with insurgents since the late 1990′s as part of urban warfare drills. In March 2009 we broke the story of the infamous MIAC report, leaked to us by two concerned Missouri police officers. The report listed Ron Paul supporters, libertarians, people who display bumper stickers, people who own gold, or even people who fly a U.S. flag and equates them with radical race hate groups and terrorists. A study released last year funded by the Department of Homeland Security also characterizes Americans who are suspicious of centralized federal authority, and reverent of individual liberty as extreme right-wing terrorists.
