[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you want part time soldiers replacing the police in your neighborhood? [/quote] I would be fine with it. When we were heavily engaged in "quelling" Iraq, I often wondered why we left Chigao/Baltimore etc to be war zones. Sometimes the violence in the USA reaches emergency proportions and requires emergency measures. Yes, posse comitatus applies to the military--but the National Guard doesn't fall under posse comitatus and can be called up by the civilian authority in each state, or in DC Bowser. [b]They could certainly be used to 'back up' the police to bring the gun violence and car jackings under control.[/b] We are already dealing with a monster virus. Enough is enough.[/quote] Please explain how this would work. Be specific. [/quote]
