No, the troops are there to investigate and assess the exact nature of the insurrection in AZ, so that the Federal Government will know who to arrest and where to send troops when the state’s righters go for a ‘2nd amendment solution.” POTUS duties include the duty to preserve the union and keep the peace.

I had to read this a few times to make sure I was understanding your post. Given what I have seen from you on another thread, I think I do understand.

It seems you believe that the National Guard is being deployed so it can help "control" U.S. citizens when they defend themselves against the threats from south of the border. "Keeping the peace" seems to be, by your definition, kicking citizens back in line when the government fails to protect our borders and we decide we have to protect ourselves.

Is that about right? Or do you have some other ridiculous way to spin this?
