Section 1385, in 1878. Congress has also enacted a number of statutes that authorize the use of land and naval forces to execute their objective. The Posse Comitatus Act outlaws the willful use of any part of the Army or Air Force to execute the law unless expressly authorized by the Constitution or an act of Congress.

What are you suggesting (or hoping for) an armed conflict with the US military???

If America loses it’s basic freedoms that made America the envy of the world , I would feel obligated to resist the socialist attempting to enslave my fellow Americans !

Lol, there are no “socialists” attempting to enslave anybody…

It’s hard to imagine a town or even a state withstanding a sustained attack from multiple stealth bombers, various attack aircraft, sustained drone strikes, etc., etc., etc. Then being able to defend themselves against a ground force armed with tanks, APVs, etc.

Tell that to the Viet Cong, or for that matter, Fidel Castro.

What a load of BS…

No their just attempting to strip us of our rights and force us to live under their rule rather than the Constitution.

Well let’s see, one is specifically protected by The Constitution and the other isn’t even mentioned.

I don’t think those guys realize just how well she wrapped them around their own axle.

Every abortion no matter how performed is an act of using deadly force.

The only difference is that in most cases the unborn child isn’t posing any threat to the life of the mother so there’s rarely a self defense argument to be made.

There’s literally nothing more natural and normal than making babies.

@Eagle-Keeper

You make very solid points. Unfortunately I have a pessimistic view on the future of this country. I have never seen a political climate this toxic and divisive. If things ever got so bad and we do devolve into another civil war, I too would agree that the military would also fraction off to a particular sides.

Most of the modern volunteer armed forces come from the heartland … the majority of them are staunchly conservative and pro-Constitution. I’m not worried as to which side would be outgunned.

With out the NRA we very well may be digging holes in our backyards and burying our stuff !

To do what with it later, take on the most powerful military in the world…

That’s the thing about the most powerful military in the world … they are us.

Do you see this congress agreeing on anything ?

12 times the president called in the military domestically

The National Guard is not the Army.

Lol, today’s youth don’t even know what the constitution is…

@montecresto1

What do you mean???

Exactly that. The Military is our sons & daughters, brothers & sisters, cousins, moms & dads. They are in the Military because they believe in the Constitution and the fundamental freedoms it guarantees. They will not take up arms against their families for the sake of corrupt Washington career politicians. Sure, you might get a few to go along with the Politicos, but the majority of them will not obey an order to fire on civilian Americans.

The ones in the Military do.

It takes a act of congress to intact Posse Comitatus Act ! Today’s congress is unable to agree on anything .
A war between American citizens and the armed forces will not happen .

The United States National Guard, also commonly referred to as the National Guard, is part of the reserve components of the United States Armed Forces !

The United States Congress has enacted a number of exceptions to the PCA that allow the military, in certain situations, to assist civilian law enforcement agencies in enforcing the laws of the U.S. The most common example is counterdrug assistance (Title 10 USC, Sections 371-381). Other examples include:

The Insurrection Act (Title 10 USC, Sections 331-335). This act allows the president to use U.S. military personnel at the request of a state legislature or governor to suppress insurrections. It also allows the president to use federal troops to enforce federal laws when rebellion against the authority of the U.S. makes it impracticable to enforce the laws of the U.S.
Assistance in the case of crimes involving nuclear materials (Title 18 USC, Section 831). This statute permits DoD personnel to assist the Justice Department in enforcing prohibitions regarding nuclear materials, when the attorney general and the secretary of defense jointly determine that an “emergency situation” exists that poses a serious threat to U.S. interests and is beyond the capability of civilian law enforcement agencies.
Emergency situations involving chemical or biological weapons of mass destruction (Title 10 USC, Section 382). When the attorney general and the secretary of defense jointly determine that an “emergency situation” exists that poses a serious threat to U.S. interests and is beyond the capability of civilian law enforcement agencies. DoD personnel may assist the Justice Department in enforcing prohibitions regarding biological or chemical weapons of mass destruction.

Military support to civilian law enforcement is carried out in strict compliance with the Constitution and U.S. laws and under the direction of the president and secretary of defense.https://www.northcom.mil/Newsroom/Fact-Sheets/Article-View/Article/563993/the-posse-comitatus-act/

Exactly my thoughts! Its the responsibility of the individual to insure ones own safety!

That’s already happened before. And millennials don’t give a shit about you or the constitution. In fact, one in five of them consider the US flag a symbol of oppression…

Cuhomo tries to reinterpret the 2nd and conflate it into something else, and the other guy in the beginning also tries to use semantics as a means to define the use of deadly force vs. self defense. Such a Marxist thing to do!
