Obama said he wanted a civilian police force as well armed and funded as the military.

Right, but NO weapon for YOU!

This whole thing is going in the wrong direction and the last thing America needs is some kind of hand-picked Praetorian body of guys around a BS and strictly Anti-American ‘President’.

Obama said he wanted a civilian police force as well armed and funded as the military.

I'd say he has exceeded his goal. We now have non profits collecting contributions to properly equip our troops deployed in hostile zones.

Doing what the DoD FAILS to do. Shameful.

Obama said he wanted a civilian police force as well armed and funded as the military.

“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” Barack Hussein Obama, 7/2/2008

They don’t call it a Civil Defense force, that would imply we need (or perhaps that we deserve) defense. The official name is National Civilian Community Corps.

I think of it as the NatCCC, or more simply, as the NatCs...
