how the hell do we defend against this?

Why would you advocate peeing in the gas tanks of military vehicles? You do know that it's our tax dollars that pay for them, right? That's like saying "Here's your paycheck for the week, no let's get back at them by lighting it on fire!"

Oh FFs, everybody knows these are the DHS food wagons for the FEMA camps!

Looking at the video a few times I believe they are bound for your Local PD.

I don't know who they belong to.
I do know that the City of Englewood Co. has one like the ones on the train. Yes, they are provided by Home Land Security. That is what I was told by a Englewood S.W.A.T. team member.
I would think most Counties has one of them. The Arapahoe County vehicle is painted a different Color, but is the same vehicle.
Again, they are provided to Counties & Cities that feel they have a need for one.
The Englewood Co. one had a tiny dent in the bumper where someone shot at it with an AK-47. Those are very tough & durable vehicles. If i remember correctly a .50 cal won't take out a tire. A .50 cal armor piercing will go through the vehicle, as I was told.
My experience in Vietnam, a .50 cal armor piercing is a very nasty round to deal with.
Believe what you want to believe.

I will feed the trolls
I work for the Feds and recently we received 2 seperate emails asking for the number of family members, what prescriptions they might needs, what skills I possess ie 1st aid, cpr, Dr, Nurse etc
Seems weird. The emails were trying to gauge the amount of response FEMA and other agencies would need to ensure that the Feds and Feds familes were taken care of during an "event"

Deleted both -- no response

3-4x a year you could sit at a railroad crossing just north of the PA/NY border (north of Scranton) and watch the transportation of several HMMWVs, MRAPs, and M123s being hauled from Ft. Drum down to Ft. Polk, LA (JRTC).... nope, nothing to worry about. Exact same thing as this.

Driving past 29 palms once or near AZ border, saw a train full of M1A1s, totally badass. (They might have been A2s)

This feeds my conspiracy theory habit... good conspiracy theory, good boy. *Pets head*

I think the Fed is/will be a lot more subtle than that. The attack isn't going to come as a sweeping incursion by DHS - they know that's inviting armed resistance on a larger scale than their number crunchers would like. A crisis (pandemic, resource shortage, gov't shutdown, financial collapse) will be used (precipitated - ala 9/11?) as the excuse for them to move in and "maintain order" for everybody's safety and wellbeing. That's where it starts.
