Every November, there's a protest here in Columbus, GA. Folks from all over the country show up to protest what they still call the School of the Americas. It's now known as Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation (WHINSEC). It's training classes held at Ft. Benning for various Latin American countries. The courses center on civil engineering and EMA-types of classes. Variously, the protest group ranges from about 3,000 to 20,000. The protests have always been orderly and the most serious arrests by LE are usually just for disorderly conduct.
Anyway, the various groups that show up to protest typically use FRS radios to coordinate their activities. For that reason, the communications section of the mobile command post is awash in FRS radios. We tried scanning but there are usually too many conversations going on at one time.
