They know financial collapse is right around the corner. They understand the psyche of Americans, so they know that Americans will have a very tough time adjusting to living with less. Rather than trying to fix the problem by arresting the bankers that erased 3 trillion dollars out of our economy, they are just going to wait until the collapse happens and try to deal with it that way. The boss is not going to have his manager come arrest him because he cheated his hourly workers.

I know all this, i guess it's just starting to hit home. Having this shit happen in my back yard is a bit scary, speculation and theory is starting to turn into reality.

Frank Zappa said it best.

...the show's over.

You sound dumb as hell, kid. Stop exaggerating.

Come see for yourself, kid. As if i'm the only one seeing the militarization of our police force. Please stay in denial, your children / future children will really appreciate it.

Lmao. Stop pretending you're living in a movie. So dramatic.

Haha, i'm not being dramatic, i'm being realistic. Didn't they just pass a ban on assault rifles today, while labeling patriots and constitutionalist as terrorists on all major MSM? meanwhile DHS is slowly winning over public opinion on a domestic drone program, buying up ammunition and tanks, militarizing our police force, passing bills making it legal to spy, detain and murder innocent civilians as long as they're labeled terrorists? This is real life.

Get us some footage of any kind. If you can.

I urge anyone in the Bay area with low light capable filming equipment to come yourself to the Emerald Glen community park in Dublin CA and film. As of right now i only have my iphone so the quality is going to be shit given the poor light and distance, i'll try to film with my phone next time i'm at the skatepark. I'm buying a Gopro Hero 3 black soon, maybe i'll buy it sooner and do some filming.

Please do. That sounds awesome. Post on another subreddit, and see if anyone may be willing to film.

Are you serious right now dude? Haha you're seriously an idiot.

The Alameda County Sheriff recently justified his desire to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on drones as a means to locate lost senior citizens. They are getting ready for something, and they won't tell us just what, but look around the Bay and use your imagination. I hear bursts of gunfire from South Oakland all the time, groups of gunmen rob big box stores (homedepot, Safeway, etc.) in the middle of the day, bro. The area around 98th and San Leandro is a full on third world crime zone. Houses getting robbed twice in one day, and people sitting on their porches with a shotty close by. Yesterday a Mexican in his twenties beat the crap out of a kid in his late teens in my yard, like a bloody kick you in your face beating. I live in a fairly nice area, and have never seen them before. Just a random out of the blue beating under my lemon tree. That's going on right now, imagine what it will be like if there is even the slightest disruption to "normal" life! If EBT goes down you better hope there are gunships in the air, cause it's gonna be hell like you can't imagine.

Are you talking about Camp Parks? I live in Livermore lol

No, camp parks is a good 2-4 miles from dublin skatepark, i'm talking about the Regional Skills Training Center for the Alameda County Sheriff's Office literally a block and a half from the park.

keep us posted please. interwebs will be the only way anyone knows what's really going on.

Honestly, it would be nice to have someone else take the lead on this. Or at least have someone start researching similar facilities in other areas, there's a good possibility this is happening nationwide now.

There will be no leaders in this revolution. We must all lead ourselves.

Agreed. Up voted.

Understandable.

Where I live in East Tenn, there is an air force base that used to do flight training and simulations once every other month. They are doing it once a week now. I live a mile from the base, and they fly over my apartment all the time shortly after it gets dark. They fly lower than they ever have before (I can never see them due to the dark, but they are so much louder now). No reasons have been given to the military personnel for why they are having to drill so often now (these are reservists they are pulling from normal jobs to do this).

Does this still go on regularly? By the way; thank you for bringing this to others' attention, not being a fucking sheep, and for thinking critically.

It's still very recent, this Wednesday they were doing some rather agressive drills from 9-11pm. No helicopters but and insane amount of ammo was used at varying pitches and bursts, some extremely loud booms from god knows what.

Today was a constant stream of CH-47 Chinooks today over the skies of Iowa City, IA. Never seen one fly over or this much ever here.

This is getting old fast.

So you haven't noticed a change in their weapon training? Me and about 30 kids haven't on two occasions watched said helicopters from the skatepark? You need video? If you live by camp parks then you're too far away to even see or hear any of this shit, come to the skatepark tonight and investigate it for yourself and get back to us. I love how you have no justifiable evidence to refute my claims other then living in dublin. Move along

Man I get tired of comments like this, so shill/forum disruption like. OP, I feel you bro, and so do thousand of other on this thread and else where. Something is happening in this country, I can feel it.

[deleted]

If you were in that area and it was happening to you...until you're in the situation you wouldn't know how to react either.

Dude... You saw a reply. Hit him up and meet up to see, if he's willing to invite you out.

OP, if I lived anywhere near ya', I'd come check that shit out! Especially if can be seen/heard from a public skatepark... Shit... "I got every goddamned right to be out at a public skatepark."

Best of luck. Keep us posted.
