<br />
The exercises are intended to prepare for &ldquo;urban-warfare&rdquo; scenarios and included low-flying black helicopters firing blanks out from machine guns and heavily armed troops rappelling onto buildings.<br />
<br />
Concerns have been expressed concerns about the true purpose of the training exercises in light of troubling anti-constitutional political developments in Washington, D.C.<br />
<br />
Federal law prohibits the use of the U.S. armed forces for domestic law enforcement. With Washington, D.C. expanding its size and scope wildly outside constitutional limitations, citizens and analysts have become more concerned. The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), that authorizes the arrest and indefinite detention of Americans without charge or trial by the military, has added to the fears.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />
<br />
The question we need to ask is if the federal government is looking to take away more of our constitutional rights and to create an infrastructure to allow for the arrest of those who they deem to be a threat to their power. <br />
