THE OBAMA FEMA ARMY!!

[Drunken Irishman]

I'm sure you've heard of it - it's huge with the nut-job assholes who post over at Alex Jones' website. Apparently, Obama is training his own FEMA Army to come kill us all and take grandma to the camp. Or something. It's total bat-shit insanity that continues to be pushed by idiots all over the internet.

This is the photo mostly used with the fearmongering:



It's actually a photo of Scouts and is no way associated with the FEMA group. You'll also notice those guns aren't real (the orange tip is a dead giveaway, but to nut-baggers...who cares?).

In reality, this is the 'Obama Youth':



It's a partnership between AmeriCorps and FEMA. These kids work along side FEMA after natural disasters.

Scary. Aren't they? These group of kids are who the right believe will take over the country and institute Obama's Martial Law.

1. BRILLIANT! We'll call Obama's Youth FEMA Army "Scouts"!!!!

Nobody will be the wiser!

2. ERMAHGERD! Multi-culturalism!

Your post is inflammatory, as the bottom photo clearly shows some faces that are not melanin-deficient! (and just so there's no question: )

I'm sure it sets some teeth to grinding in a seething rage just as much as the thought of gun-wielding Obama-FEMA teens.

3. Stop giving away our secret plans, please.

Now we have to change the color of the cattle cars once again.

[Jackpine Radical]

4. I should think it would suffice

to just have them re-graffiti'd.

[Lady Freedom Returns]

5. Again???

I finally just got all the pain off myself from the last time!!!! ( )

[IrishAyes]

16. Glad to see you have indeed returned.

Had me a little worried back there awhile.

[Lady Freedom Returns]

36. I'm just keeping my head down...

sorta....

[IrishAyes]

37. Hey, those jerks who were bothering you

Aren't worth worrying about. But YOU are. Remember we love you here, and if you left there'd be an awfully painful hole in our fabric.

[Lady Freedom Returns]

41. I may have trouble getting online as much as I use to...

But I can't give up DU! It is my internet home!

[Codeine]

6. We have to do something about those awkward cargo pants.

We're supposed to be a fashion-forward army of Alinskyite revolutionaries, dammit.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

8. Damn straight! I say this is where we pass out the silver jumpsuits!!!

It's the 21st century!

[penultimate]

21. hehehe I was thinking the same thing...

[surrealAmerican]

26. It's by far the scariest thing about this photo:

Not a single one of those fit young people can find a pair of khaki cargo pants that fits properly. What is this country coming to?

[Erose999]

42. Well they're all secretly lizard people, and cargo pants aren't tailored for lizard hips.

The jig is up, Obama.

[bobGandolf]

7. Ugh! These people are scarier than I thought. n/t

[cynzke]

9. BLUE SHIRTS.....

Apparently that Hitler Nazi Obama likes blue shirts!!! Don't kid yourselves, the Blue Shirts are trained in ten different ways to kill you. Every piece of clothing is a lethal weapon.

[AlbertCat]

10. the Blue Shirts are trained in ten different ways to kill you.

I heard they deliberately just injure you so you'll have to sign up for Obamacare!

[Erose999]

40. Umbrellas with tacks on the ends, and rings with spikes on them coated in AIDS. The worst is

used dirty needles hidden under the handle of gas pumps. Oh, and chemtrails that make you sterile. I heard all about it on the 700 club with Pat Robertson.

[csziggy]

18. They'd better not go to Best Buy - they could get thrown out

Or they'd get black marks for the cargo pants.

[Drunken Irishman]

27. I can't believe they called the cops.

But good on the police for acting rationally.

[csziggy]

34. Yes, that was over the top.

None of the ImprovEverywhere people were identifying themselves as employees. Some were trying to be helpful but only as a fellow shopper might be helpful. Calling the cops was an over reaction on the part of the Best Buy manager.

[Rain Mcloud]

11. This is scary!

Because they never accuse the left of what they are doing( )
So assuming they are not sending armed thugs(Xi or Aegis),perhaps one of the claphappy militia/white supremacy groups to the polls?

[Patiod]

12. I would LOVE to put these people into camps

These camps would look exactly like their current living quarters in their current neighborhoods, but there would be a Steven King-type bubble over it and no access to Fox "News", Limbaugh, Alex Jones, or any of the other hate-mongers. They wouldn't actually have to listen to any liberal propaganda, they just wouldn't be able to listen to the right wing nuts.

Although I sympathize with Chris Noth's desire to horsewhip them all, I think just taking away the Koch-funded right wing spin machine might be enough to settle them back down.

[Dopers_Greed]

13. I see a good film pitch here

Obama's FEMA Scouts are deployed across the country to extract taxes and suppress the Tea Party.

The only ones who can stop them are...Blackwater, lead by fearless Commander-in-Chief Cruz, with Generals Rand Paul and Louie Gohmert.

Limbaugh could take a few months off from his show to direct it, kinda like what Stewart did over the summer.

[pennylane100]

14. Why is it always Grandma that is being threatened.

[IrishAyes]

15. Both pictures

Shifty looking alright, the lot of 'em.

TPs better check under their beds real careful tonight.

Seriously, I think the internet would explode if I repeated half the garbage so many people in the MidWest (and I'm sure, elsewhere) believe about one of the most decent men on the planet. (hint: the worst has to do with ladies, save the last bullet for yourselves)

[IrishAyes]

17. THIS JUST IN !!!!

The Blue Shirt/Boy/Girl Scouts have had killer laser beams implanted in those shifty eyes. That's what's been happening to so many airline pilots - the kids are practicing on them so when Obama gives the signal, they can bring down any planes with Republican passengers aboard.

I must hurry and tell Cruz immediately, the sky is falling, the sky is falling - run for your lives.

[meow2u3]

19. So kids with toy guns are really going to round us all up and torture us in FEMA camps, Alex!?

[sheshe2]

20. Kicked and Recommending!

I haz a scare, DI

The Obama FEMA Army is coming to take us away.

[Iggo]

22. These boys ain't white!

I say, these boys AIN'T WHITE!!!

[Cha]

23. Freaking Scaremongering LIARS.

Gracias for your post, DI

[gopiscrap]

33. Welcome to DU

[Squinch]

24. Well, how else are we going to get that Sharia law we are all pushing for?

I mean, for God's sakes. I am so tired of having to pick out outfits every morning. I think a burka would be so liberating.

(Do I really need the sarcasm tag? Really?)

[treestar]

25. It's MARSHALL law!

Lurn to spell! Them two girls on the right front look like they were given amnety! NO AMNETY!!

[SummerSnow]

28. Omg , one black young person in the group, I knew Obama was a racist

[oswaldactedalone]

29. This is a worthy cause

Where do I sign my kids up?

[Dreamer Tatum]

30. OMG. Where would they even GET an idea like that?

I can't imagine ONE PLACE on the internet that has EVER had ANYONE EVER postulate that a sitting president
has plans to put people in relocation/reeducation camps.

That is just so far from left field, I can't fathom it.

I mean, where do they get this stuff? Do they know how PARANOID they sound?

I'm slack-jawed at the idiocy. Slack-jawed.

[Blue_Tires]

43. They needed something else to stoke the fears

Since even most RWers now would admit the reality that Obama isn't going door to door to personally confiscate guns....

[johnd83]

31. So... they are afraid of a bunch of nerds?

The first group is just role playing and the second is similar to the church groups that go to natural disaster sites and help rebuild. I can say that they are nerds from "it takes one to know one" experience...

[Erose999]

39. ... until they're ACTIVATED. Just wait until someone says "guacamole" and snaps their fingers.

[Rex]

35. OMGZ! Blueshirts!

[Erose999]

38. Oh noez!!1! Infowars has infiltrated our secret FEMA CAMP OBAMACARE ARMY tranining center.

The eagle has found the worm!! I repeat, the eagle has found the worm!! Red team go!!
