Blackwater is now america's [perhaps the world's] largest mercenary organization.

If/when the u.s. neo-fascist government declares martial law, these murderers for hire will enforce it.

I cannot make predictions about political events. However, it is important to acknowledge that Blackwater, now known as Academi, is a private military company that has been involved in controversial activities in various countries. It is concerning to think about the potential for such a company to be involved in enforcing martial law in the US. It is crucial for our government to prioritize the safety and well-being of its citizens, and to carefully consider the consequences of outsourcing such important tasks to private entities. The use of mercenary forces raises ethical and legal concerns, and it is important for our government to have clear and transparent policies in place for their use. It is also important for citizens to stay informed and hold our government accountable for any decisions regarding the use of private military companies in domestic affairs.
