The military is also now actively "helping" out with traffic checkpoints, and the old Blackwater(now Xe) and other mercenary groups have been used by the government to police the streets in different situations within the US.

The government already is using the military and mercenaries within the US borders why wouldn't they continue too, and increase the use of them within the US borders?

Could be that when the Occupy Wall Street protests start becoming riots we will see more mercenaries or even troops on the streets patrolling.

1) Please look up the term mercenary in the dictionary. You will find that is NOT the correct term for security contractors.

2) DoS's protection program is worldwide, including the US.

3) Various organizations have been providing security for VIPs here in the US for centuries. Just because the DoS is using their contracted and trained personel, NOW you're paraniod?

At least DoS holds their personnel accountable for their actions unlike some of the hack companies running around the US pretending to be security professionals.

Your not a mercenary? Hey if you need someone to carry your golf clubs over there let me know I could use some time away from this crap.

You shouldn't believe all the stories told to you at the gunshows, Alex.

As an evil security contractor with Triple Canopy I had to clear that up with people constantly. May as well call the Wackenhut guy at the local bank a mercenary.

The Zombies are coming, the .gov is going to use the army to oppress the citizenry and create a dictatorship, and my guns and ammo subscription is running out...



Oh the huge manatee.

somebody at the gun show was talking to me about it

This should'be been your first clue. I hear so much BS at guns shows that it makes me laugh.
