I remember that whole Bible at school thing. Half wits on Ashe didn't even know it was legal! They just spewed "ist" words. ItsComing, go elsewhere! Oh, by the way, Ashe - the country thinks you are half wits. Look it up!!! Lol!

Wow, ItsComing. If you are here to weed out the "conspiracy theorists", rest assured that Ashe County is full of half wits who never challenge government. Seems like most, "right wing extremists" don't go on GoAshe. Anyway, if you are for real, and not a plant, organize!!!

ItsComing - Don't you wish that these INTOLERANT morons were at least paid to say what they do? http://www.breitbart.com/te...ne-trolls/

If they are not paid, what does this say about our populace?

Don't bother with know-nothings who refuse to reason. Take care of yourself and your family.

The M1A2 Abrams tank weighs 68 tons (20 tons more than an 18 wheel truck.

That may be true but it also spreads its weight out over a far larger area than a semi so the comparison is apples to oranges.

I'm a firm believer that the parkway was built for me to carry a flat land lady out to one of my favorite spots with a couple of nice quilts. Indulge in several drinks and and some heavy petting then watch those panties all but fall off.

Sorry, but the parkway was never meant to be a military highway. That is an urban legend just like the idea that the interstate highway system was supposed be able to serve as a makeshift runway in emergencies.

Continuity of Government plans have existed for decades really. Currently the US Government calls it the Continuity of Operations and it is defined by National Security Presidential Directive 51. That that though will likely change as a new administration takes over next year.

Roughly it covers the continuance of government in the event of not only a catastrophic nuclear or chemical attack but also in case of natural disasters ranging from tsunamis, earthquakes, tornadoes, up to and including a coronal mass ejection from Sol and even mass epidemics. The primary method is martial law in the plan.

The Appalachian area has long been considered problematic in such an event, given the ratio of independent will, firearm availability and disdain for the federal and state governments by a large amount of the populace of said region.

Such improvements could potentially be part of a greater plan. The idea wouldn't be necessarily to use the roads to get into Ashe County, but to get out. While there are larger airports as you point out all of those are also much more visible. You could fly a squadron of V-22's into Ashe County Airport at night and no one would know in all likelihood. Allowing you a rapid deployment ability of troops in potential trouble spots. The lengthening of the airstrip and widening of it, would accommodate the C-17 Globemaster III as well, allowing the army or marines to pretty much fly in anything they wanted.

The county's roads are really substandard for modern military vehicles. A stock M1A2 Abrams tank weighs 68 tons (20 tons more than an 18 wheel truck), and they can get much heavier depending on what options they carry. The Blue Ridge Parkway was originally built as a military highway to provide fast access to the area. However parts of the parkway today could not support a modern armor column if such was needed.

Thus yes the changes could be due to such needs, however I don't think Martial Law is imminent. People claimed Clinton was going to declare martial law and remain in power, then the same people claimed Bush would do the same and now those same folks are claiming Obama will do it. I have much more faith in our military though. There are many rank and file and officers who would refuse such orders and arrest the president if he attempted to stay in office beyond his elected mandate. However that doesn't mean we should dismiss the possibility, there is always a time if the President gained sufficient power it could happen in the future.

Coming must be related to Couldn't in Wilkes. All the Govt. has to do is pick the 4 highest points in any county to control the Information in and out of a county.The Govt. has laptops for that purpose.

The OP obviously doesn't believe in his conspiracies enough, or actually know enough about them, to try to defend his claims. Too bad he ran away so soon. He's probably hiding in his basement with a case of MRE's and a pallet of bottled water

There are signs everywhere. Why would they build a road to nowhere like 221? There is an influx of money to things like the airport, roads, and cell towers. All these are infrastructure for the military. Its not just here, it is everywhere. They know when they come to take our guns there will be a fight. They are preparing for war. The election is a scam, a way to divert your attention from what is really going on.

It a good thing breathing comes natural If you don't understand why 221 is being 4 laned and no it has nothing to do with the military.

Alex Jones is a moron that's made millions by scaring bigger morons. You have zero facts. You can't make a valid case. And you can't dispute a logical argument. You are all fear and paranoia. Like I said, I've heard this crap for years, and it never changes. The only thing that changes is who screams "the UN is coming! The UN is coming!" depends on what party is in the White House.

You are too blind to see the truth. There has been a slow takeover of our country. The last piece is to send the military in to stop a rebellion. They have been arming our police departments as well/


Ron Paul and Alex Jones have warned us for years about this.
