Kinda divided on this one. While I commend them for taking precautionary measures and developing a plan of action in the event of an emergency, something about this reminds me of Brigadier General Jack D. Ripper.

Count the number of black people in that video. I'm coming up with zero. That combined with the fact that this is titled 'Operation Exodus' makes me think that this is for the next time there's a natural disaster and the darkies try to rise up or escape from their slums. Basically this is cover so the deputies themselves don't get criticized for firing on them like after Katrina...

They bough a .50 cal machine-gun to put on their "War Wagon", sounds like someones ready for 2012.

Seriously though, what terrorist is gonna attack Louisiana? Like what Dave Attell said about terrorist attacks at bus depots: "Somebody's already done this b*tch"

Shreveport huh? Isn't that where cock8 lives? I can just see him practicing his "draw" in a mirror.

Their system of rank is pretty cool. It involves dragons, I hear...

 

[rockofullr]

Oh like the KKK! Awesome!

Seriously? Throw a $2 off dinner coupon at Denny's at those old guys and you will be able to walk right past them.

Deen added he'd been mulling such a plan since the 9/11 attacks -- but he denied to the Times that he was creating a militia. "We run from that word," he said. "We're just the opposite [of] that word."

Welllll, technically, not the opposite, just substitute law enforcement for military.

I was thinking that myself.

Look at the guy towards the right in khakis and a white shirt. Seems to already be going into cardiac arrest.

Conscientious bystander.

The south will writhe again.

I wish that picture was larger. The guy in the green shirt and blue jeans might just be Billy Mays!

From the original article that TPM linked to:

Five are black. Women involved will only be used in "support roles," Deen said, which indicated non-combat activity.

They must have kept those 5 guys out of the promotional materials to encourage participation...

No, they are there for the others to site their guns in.
