Google USMC+TRUEX, training in US cities has been going on for years. Real (populated) cities offer challenges you don't get in MOUT towns. Especially when you're doing reconnaissance/surveillance or insertion on a target. Some of you guys need to loosen the tin foil.

Why are the helicopters black if its a military op? Its weird, there are plenty of other shit holes we are already at around the world we could "train" at..

Helicopters only appear to be black. Regular army birds use a very dark OD green color and they appear black at night. Or they are 160th SOAR birds.
You really think the soldiers that go through the most rigorous training and testing are just going to blindly follow orders to kill fellow Americans? Those guys aren't doing it for the paycheck, they do it because they love their country and will give their lives to help keep us safe.
If you really think the smartest and most elite soldiers in our military would piss all over the constitution just because someone told them to...

When I was at Ft Hood we'd fly formations with some Apaches and Kiowa D models that would lase cars on the highway for hellfire strikes to practice keeping a fast moving ground target sighted in. I doubt any of them had a clue as to what was going on.
