The unspoken accusation in the speculation about martial law in America is that US service members are mindless drones that will carry out any order given to them. To be sure, the further you go down the food-chain of military hierarchy this becomes more true.

However, the current fear spewing dogma is just the opposite. We are meant to be worried about Navy SEALs? Green Berets? Delta?!?!?! etc.

For starters, these are some of the smartest most patriotic men I have ever worked with, and I find it condescending to speak of these men as if they have no moral compass and will blindly follow the orders of the PODUS (especially, since I don't know of a single SF warrior that trusts him, much less respects him).

Secondly, have any of the conspiracy theorist (about this military training exercise) commented on this obvious fallacy: THESE MEN HAVE FAMILIES, AND FRIENDS THAT ARE CIVILIANS!!!!

Let's be logical people. Military service members are human beings. By-in-large it is their humanity that calls them to service. These men and women have been risking their lives for OUR COUNTRY for the past 14 years! Now we are meant to believe that they are going to turn on all of us, and start arresting, detaining, or fighting their fellow countrymen? Their families? Their friends? Their family's friends? Their friends family?!?!?!

I'm open to hearing the rationale here.

Alas, you say; "poor brainwashed patriot, if you only knew"? If that is your argument, please, brainwash me some more. Explain this sudden shift of morality amongst the DOD, DOJ, LEO's (and maybe even the fire departments are in on this)? For those unaware--none of these organizations pay very well--relative to the amount of time and sacrifices that the job requires. These men and women do there job out of SERVICE and PATRIOTISM, not to climb a corporate ladder, or become wealthy.

There is not a single organization on this planet that deserves more respect--from all Americans--than our military. Ironically, it is ONLY because of our military, that these conspiracy laden glory-seekers, can openly accuse our military of being a "threat" to America.

As one of my idols (Brene' Brown) says; "until you step into the arena, I'm not interested in your comments". In other words, if you haven't been in one of these organizations, you are not qualified to make assumptions about their morality or sense of duty.

Until I see and hear these [Jade Helm] concerns from our military elite, and the like, I will continue on my personal path, doing what I can do to make America better. Step into THAT arena with me, and we'll all be better off.
