Related to a discussion on here a while back.  Here is an example of military exercises taking place right in the middle of our community.

With the crack of automatic weapons fire, three 25-foot Coast Guard boats surrounded an inflatable raft in Honolulu Harbor yesterday to the astonishment of by-standers at Aloha Tower.

Chicago resident Art Urdiales initially thought the action was part of a "drug raid or something."

Though only blank rounds were used, the realistic demonstration gave service members a chance to hone their anti-terrorism skills, officials said.

It also showed off the prowess of Marine Safety and Security Team 91107 -- created in response to the 2001 terrorist attacks, said Coast Guard Lt. John Titchen. MSST boats have a top speed of 54 mph and can fire at the engine of a boat threatening the harbor, he said.

this is where BB defends men in black firing blanks into crowds as perfectly normal where he comes from, and reminds us all that he'll happily lay on the ground wearing a toilet seat as the police state masturbates upon him.
