The anti-Jade Helm 15 plot

| August 6, 2015

Jade Helm fellows

Bobo sends us a link to the Washington Post Which tells the story of how the Feds broke up an anti-Jade Helm 15 plot, referring to the training exercise now being conducted in the Southwestern part of the country. The plotters, Walter Eugene Litteral, Christopher Todd Campbell, and Christopher James Barker, were all from North Carolina, you know, where the Special Forces conduct the Robin Sage exercise.

The three were heavily armed with legally- and illegally-obtained weapons according to the Post, but your mileage may vary in regards to adjectives the Post uses.

Anyway, one of the fellows, Barker, is a convicted felon and they tried to buy him a gun, which the FBI blocked.

There were plans, the documents allege, to make pipe bombs, explosive tennis balls covered in nails and coffee cans filled with ball bearings that would be detonated with a shot from a sniper rifle.

[…]

The documents indicated that Litteral told another person in a phone conversation: “I got a f—— .45 beside my bed. I got a .45 and a 9-mil in my truck. I’ve got a 9-mil and a .380, or a .380 in her car. Safe full of weapons. You know what? Every time I open up this damn safe, I mean I’ve got, I’ve got at least 30 weapons that I can see and some tucked all the way in the back back.”

Yeah, they were asking to be busted. their whole plan revolved around them being able to lure the troops onto their property and into a trap where they would have scads of booby traps and pre-plotted kill zones. I’m sure the professional soldiers would fall for it.

From the Associated Press;

In addition to ammunition for a long-range .338 caliber rifle, the authorities said Litteral purchased hand-held radios, Kevlar helmets, body armor and face masks in preparation for an armed resistance to the feared military occupation.

I certainly hope that having .338 ammo and hand-held radios doesn’t make someone suspected of terrorist activities.

I’m pretty sure that this will all be used to bolster the insanity that comes from Southern Poverty Law Center’s Hate Watch which says that the right wing nutjobs are the real terrorist threat in this country. These guys were just three boobs with some guns. One without any guns. They were a bigger danger to themselves than anyone else.

A song you can dedicate to the numbnuts:

Not even close to safe for work, children or the sensitive types of any kind or sort.

This could be their theme song. This one’s work safe.

Skippy

that is truly there theme song 🙂

In the late 1950s/early-mid1960s we had the Kingston Trio.

Here, we have the Dumbcluck Trio.

Skippy

Honda someone is posting odd pics again on FB.. about foil

Skippy

that would be Hondo not Honda Lol….

UpNorth

You misspelled the word preceding Trio, Hondo.

Hondo

Don’t think so. “Kingston” is spelled correctly, and so is “Dumbcluck”.

I was being polite. (smile)

Just an Old Dog

Ahhh the stoopid… it hurts… who wants to bet these clowns have no where near the arsenal they claim to have?
How the fuck do you “lure” Spec Ops Soldiers on a training op to your property?

11B-Mailclerk

Lure the troops?

A large tub, overflowing with ice and cans of beer, and a big sign that says “free”.

What? I got that idea from Wyle E Coyote, sorta. Gotta work this time, right?

Roger in Republic

All I can say is that it has worked every time so far. The hotter the day, the faster it works.

Pinto Nag

Isn’t it amazing how the movie ‘Deliverance’ just keeps on being relevant, generation after generation?

Skippy

Bingo ^^^^^^

Except these assholes have no musical talent. At least the inbred creature in Deliverance could play the fuck out of the banjo.

Maybe “Idiocracy” is more apropos.

Wonder which one of these is Frito?

At least his is diluted. Joe Titty takes his straight from the wang.

Yup, just like prison ink. He must be the prohibited person they spoke of.

It makes it so easy when they advertise, doesn’t it?

“explosive tennis balls covered in nails ”

I’m sure they can get some used multi-colored ones from “Wave” Reynard up Canada way, the ones they used to toss at him to cure his PTSD.

ChipNASA

My guess would be that the three of them will be working with some explosive balls real soon.

😀 😀 😀 😀

And they won’t be filled with Tannerite.

I was really hoping to see a Ventura mug shot complete with tinfoil hat.

It in the works

I actually read this story after clicking a link in “Tuesdays With Claymore”. These guys are one of the reasons that some people think that preppers are bat shit crazy. Sadly these guys are making the ones just getting ready for emergencies look bad. You know how we can’t judge all Muslims because of the acts of a few but we can judge all gun owners and preppers because of the acts of a few. It’s the Liberal way.

Pinto Nag

Funny you should mention that. The prepper/survivalist niche is rapidly morphing into a poisonous stew of paranoid people and the companies that are more than willing to enable them in their TEOTWAWKI, buy-all-the-cool-shit, kill-anything-that-moves delusions. I consider myself a prepper, and I am frankly horrified at some of what I’m reading on some of the sites, particularly the survivalist sites. From simply making it through some disaster or other, it has tipped over into preparing for, and engaging in, full-blown apocalyptic warfare.

Twist

You and me both. I stay away from anyone that is preparing fo the zombie apocalypse or something similar. I prepare for emergencies and I’m into learning more about wilderness survival. I have stumbled upon sites where people think they are going to take their knife and AR-15 into the bush and live like kings.

Pinto Nag

I would only attempt wilderness survival as a last resort, myself. Of course, I live in the Rocky Mountain Range — which proves every year that it can always find swjft, usually painful, and sometimes downright interesting ways to kill people.

Silentium Est Aureum

And even in “little” mountains like the Presidential Range of New England, flatlanders and other assorted ri-tards have to die of exposure. Every single month of the year.

Always someone.

Twist

Me too. I learn everything I can about it from books, the internet, classes and learning from real Alaska bush people. I could probably survive up here, but I wouldn’t be very happy about it.

GDContractor

I stop by the Half Price bookstore pretty regularly. In short few months I have been able to amass a collection of Foxfire Books Vol 1-9. I keep them all up at the family farm (no TV or electronics up there allowed) and my sonsand I meander through them. Those a really neat books about so many lost arts. If I see some other book on outdoor survival that appears to be legit, I usually buy it and add it to the collection as well.

My farm place is a few hours out of the city and I have tried to catalog alternative routes to get up there, avoiding the major highways and interstates. There are not too many options in that regard. Then, for some reason this week, I did a google search on “abandoned railroad lines”. Turns out, there are several websites devoted to the subject that map out old abandoned RR lines. Just one more option for traveling off the (recently) beaten path.

The Mormons have a habit of keeping a year’s supply of foodstuffs of all kinds on hand. That makes simple good sense to me. I see nothing wrong with having a well-stocked pantry and freezer. It’s a hedge against inflated prices and shortages, although some things (eggs, for instance) are difficult to store for extended periods.
I see nothing wrong with being completely prepared for the kind of disaster that happened with the Fukushima disaster, and Japan is one of the best-prepared countries to handle earthquake disasters. Anything like that can happen anywhere.

But it is not the same thing as hoarding, which is the mentality that some of these paranoid, delusional people get into. It does not help that they get support from people who are quite willing to take advantage of them and fan their fears into downright silliness. What I do not understand is how they talk themselves into believing that the ‘gubbmint’ is out to get ’em, but it comes from somewhere.

I doubt I will ever understand it.

Twist

Actually it’s a two year supply for Mormons. It’s not just for natural disasters. It is in also in case of things like losing your job or falling into financial difficulties. We are currently working on our two year food storage right now.

Twist

LDS Home Storage Centers provide for food storage at a realativly low price. As far as I know you don’t have to be a member to use the facility.

CLAW131

Yep, there are LDS Home Storage Centers in Burley, Idaho Falls and Pocatello serving the Snake River Plain.

Plus every grocery store, Wal-Mart, and Farm/Ranch stores all have products.

Seems like you can’t swing a cat without hitting one.

Plus Utah is only a two hour drive south and there’s a center on every corner down there.

CLAW131

Uh-Oh. You said Mormans.

Expect a 30 paragraph Power Point presentation from JRM on the benefits of converting to Mormanism beginning in 3.2.1….. (smile)

All of you are forgetting the magic underwear long johns! Almost as important very single night as the rice under your mattress!

I though it was one year. I stand corrected. But it’s still a common sense approach to financial instability. As two different financial analysts have said, if Yellen at the Fed raises interest rates (very likely), then a recession will follow and it does not mean lower prices.

Twist

It was, but they changed it pretty recently.

Ex-Ph2

So they were going to start a war with… the whole US Army?

Okay. Next contestant!

Memo to dipshit mouth breathing inbred racist dickheads:

If the government was going to launch a large-scale, or any scale operation against the civilian population, THEY WOULDN’T ANNOUNCE IT IN ADVANCE, YOU FUCKTARDS!

Perry Gaskill

That’s what they want you to think, SEA. When the government tells you it’s not going to do something it means they are, except for those times when they tell you they’re not but actually are not as a PsyOps tactic.

Note: I’m going to invoke the rarely-used /sarc tag on this just in case there are any dipshit mouth breathing inbred racist dickheads in the back of the class who might be slow on the uptake.

2/17 Air Cav

That’s true but there’s always that one or two who need to tell the wife why they won’t be coming home on schedule. Then, wife tells Sally, who emails Pete, whose sister is a blogger and, before you know it, it’s on network news.

David

When you say “the government” you are referring to the incompetent collection of lying, apologizing ‘we got bin Laden’ waterheads in the present administration, right? If so…. I am not sure I agree with your last statement.

Veritas Omnia Vincit

Those are some shallow end of the gene pool looking sons a bitches…at least they didn’t blow their legs off like the asswipe in New York.

I think they might be the drop of water on the apron next to the shallow end of the gene pool.
Who knows, if this had been allowed to go on, one of the gang probably would have shot at least one other member of the gang.

Skippy

dats Methed up ! ! ! LMAO…..

DaveGinOly

Nothing in the article says these men planned to do anything other than resist a declaration of martial law. They had no plans to attack anyone unless martial law was declared.

Most people reading here would probably agree that we have a right to resist oppression and tyranny with the force of arms, if necessary. If this is so, then we have a right to plan to do so, and to acquire the necessary tools to effectuate that resistance. Naturally, no government would admit of such a right, that’s why they create laws to discourage such preparation. If I were a juror on their case, barring convincing evidence that they intended actual criminal acts (resistance to a declaration of martial law doesn’t qualify), I’d be inclined to let them off the hook for most of the offenses (with the possible exception of the attempt at the straw man purchase of the rifle). Everything else, barring actual intent to commit crimes, is a valid exercise of preparation for resistance to government tyranny, however misguided they may have been in their belief in its imminence.

You dangerously and intalekchewlly wrong SIR!

Read up on the oath!

nbcguy54ACTUAL

Having/making explosives without an FEL is just one of many actual criminal acts they’ll be charged with. The went a bit beyond “intended” in that aspect.

OWB

Oh, that’s funny, DaveGinOly.

Question: Since you are all into this mind reading stuff, what WAS their intent? Can you discern intent for others as well as you did for these clowns? Assuming you can, then I really don’t have to tell you what I really think about them, do I?

OK, I’ll give you a clue: if my car is stopped for some reason by a law enforcement official, they might find a big pack of toilet paper, some dog food, maybe even some food in cans and a small toolkit. Nothing which remotely resembles that which when assembled would cause death and destruction. Yeah, there’s a huge difference between having some stuff on hand in case we need to stay home for a few days or weeks and carting things across the country with some excuse about defending someone else’s territory. Guys like this seriously need to stay away from my neighborhood.

2/17 Air Cav

I got the impression in reading the WaPo piece that the reporter was running hard as she wrote it, what with all of that gasping and panting. “FBI Arrests Three Numbnuts.” At least the gov’t is arresting some people now and not aiding and abetting their nefarious and deadly enterprises.

nbcguy54ACTUAL

I just read how the Special Ops community as a whole is seriously deficient in it’s minority representation, so the Southern Poverty Law Center will probably stay out of this.

On another note; what a waste of a good bunch of weapons….

UpNorth

That article was in the Army Times, which is owned by Gannett. They also own USA Today, Detroit Free Press, Lansing State Urinal, among others. Which explains their focus on “diversity”.

Twist

My brother-in-law posted that on facebook. I thought it was a duffle blog piece.

UpNorth

Apparently, it was actually an article in USAToday, picked up by Army Times, both of which are Gannett operations.

Furthest east Jade Helm is going is Texas… so they are prepping in North Carolina. Okaaaayyy… geography wasn’t a strong subject, either?

Ex-PH2

Are you saying that Texas isn’t located in North Carolina? My maps were wrong???

David

No, but North Carolina wants to be in Texas. We just haven’t found a county small enough to put ’em in here.

(Geez, I even choked on typing that… I’m pretty much a transplanted Midwesterner who wants to go home.)

Ex-PH2

Well, the cornfields are there waitin’ for ye. There may be a bumper crop of wheat, soybeans and late corn this year, thanks to the rain they’re all getting.

This is that time of year when the shadows grow long on the lawn and the fireflies are just about done. The peaches and pears are ripe, and apples will be picking in about two weeks. You’d better find an excuse to get back home before long.

Hondo

Watch it. If Alaska ever decides to divide itself in half, that would make Texas the 3rd largest state. (smile)

nbcguy54ACTUAL

For what it’s worth, we used to have a town in Texas named Carolina. It was East of Killeen (Ft Hood) back in the late 1800’s….

According to this article I read, Walter Eugene Litteral spent 14 years in the Marines, which seems like an odd number of years if true.

“helicopters of color”

Hondo

Assuming that’s correct, I’d guess either a mediocre Sgt who got nailed by HYT; an E6 who stepped on his crank at about 14 years and got reduced (and then hit by HYT); or a less-than-honorable departure from the USMC. But I could easily be wrong.

Based on his demonstrated smarts, any of the three works.

Yeah, that is what I was thinking.
