They better start recruiting faster, because Dusty says Obama has less than ten days until he's voted out of office, and then 2 1/2 months left in office. Unless...
231 isn't going to cut it, even if they give them those nifty DHS "fighting vehicles". Of course, this could be an updated version of Lincoln's "Anaconda Plan" since the recruits are in Vicksburg!
I also take exception to this statement in the linked article:

The first problem one finds with this ‘new army’ is the fact that they are mere children. Yes, 18 is generally the legal age a person can sign a contract, join the military or be tried as an adult. But ask any parent - an 18, 20 or even a 24 year-old is still a naïve, readily-influenced kid.

the bolding is mine
Shit, we had better be careful or they'll start recruiting our 18x prospects out from under our noses.

An amazing (  ) almagamation of conspiracy angst pulled together using paslodean logic to create yet another storm cloud on the ever darkening horizons of the blogosphere's ATP (American Tinfoil Press) crowd...
Have they picked up all those white vans being stored at that little Florida airport next to the port yet?

Paslodean Logic generally equates to it has happened before and/or History has time and time gain proven it is never completely out of the equation. All it takes is a vision and people to ignore that vision for it to come to fruition.
Considering the possibility of the US Government arming drug cartels or AQI who harm US Citizens might be an example of Pasloden Logic

Seriously, I don't, and didn't, have a big problem with young black men/youths admiring Obama - or worshipping, as some might say.
I'd be interested to know how many of those youngsters feel the same way today.

I read the article, and it mentions multiple disparate items:
1) DHS now has its own version of Civil Air Patrol.
2) Armored vehicles for ICE.
3) Ammunition purchases (which other threads here attributed to groups like USCG).
The only connection between these things seems to be insinuation.
---------------------------
Speaking of ICE... when did this administration begin taking ICE's role seriously?
