Did you know that the US still has tons of VX Nerve gas in stock??
The aging arsenal at the Blue Grass Army Depot contains 523 tons of liquid VX and sarin -- lethal nerve agents produced during the Cold War -- and mustard, a blister agent that caused horrific casualties in World War I.

A shot glass worth of this stuff would take out the entire country. Why did they make soo much??
The US military was supposed to have all of it's chemical weapons stockpiles destroyed by 2012. They're not going to make it. Why?
I think the military is gearing up for a release of WMD.
Maj. Gen. Gregg Martin told the group of community leaders who got an inside peek at what happens behind the facility’s gates.
“It’s not if, but when we’re going to get hit with weapons of mass destruction in America.”
Martin explained that while Soldiers going through the CBRN school prepare to support oversea initiatives, they’re also reading for the chance that these forms of warfare could happen at home, too
...
Around 5,000 people pass through the school each year, and to date there has never been incident. An on-site chemist prepares concoctions like VX, a persistent nerve agent that when used lasts a few days, and GB, a non-persistent nerve agent that when used has immediate effects on its targets, as well as BG, a non-pathogenic biological simulant, and Cesium 137, a radiation source.

Notice, he says it's going to happen in America. Not Iraq, not Afghanistan...
The only countries known to possess VX are the United States and Russia

I'm sorry, but I don't trust these nutjobs who make a life out of being paid to wage warfare.
