Yeah, about that 'zero-to-jackboots' time

Tam has commented on...
The training, which took place in the German North Rhine-Westphalia province was designed to prepare troops as part of the EU’s Lowlands Gendarmerie programme.

Breitbart London reported that the exercise was attended by 600 members of various European police and military forces, in a bid to prepare the united troops of the European Gendarmerie Force.
Hmmm...  Right.  Couldn't be any problem there, could there? 

Although,
European affairs spokesman for the German Government Andrej Huko asked to attend, but was blocked from coming close to the site.

He claimed that the military force was preparing to shut down “political meetings” and “protests”.

He went on to argue that the, “militarisation of the police” is, “extremely worrying and contrary in Germany to the principle of separation of police and military”.
No, nothing to worry about, at all...
