F-15's were going to be used against civilians last year if Covid-19 got out of hand

[newarkhiphop]

In March of last year, California National Guard members awaited orders from Sacramento headquarters to make preparations for any civil unrest that might arise from the outbreak of the coronavirus.

The members expected directives to ready ground troops to help state and local authorities respond to disturbances triggered by resistance to stay-at-home rules or panic over empty store shelves.

But then came an unusual order: The air branch of the Guard was told to place an F-15C fighter jet on an alert status for a possible domestic mission, according to four Guard sources with direct knowledge of the matter.


Those sources said the order didn’t spell out the mission but, given the aircraft’s limitations, they understood it to mean the plane could be deployed to terrify and disperse protesters by flying low over them at window-rattling speeds, with its afterburners streaming columns of flames. Fighter jets have been used occasionally in that manner in combat zones in Iraq and Afghanistan, they said.

last summer when the protests were going on in dc they hovered a blackhawk? i think it was really really low over the protestors and it was legitimately scary. Was watching streamers and they went from hyped to scared real quick, immediately talked about going back to the car.

They had them shyts monitoring the city all day and night. I remember hearing it in the morning.

Not surprised. They bombed Tulsa and Philly, why would this be any different?


Utterly disgusting...that the THOUGHT would even enter someone's mind to use fighter jets against the people that pay their salaries, the people they swore to protect

pictures and video here. definitely doesn't look like a blackhawk lol, my bad. I saw it on a like 360p stream. The moment i saw also seems to have happened a little later. They were just starting to chase the protestors down, eventually they cornered them and a ton of them went in some person's house, it was pretty wild.
here's a graphic from the article that shows how low they got
