I'm not entirely sure about your point with posting the Posse Comitatus Act. Any military force on the planet is entirely within it's duty to secure the borders from non citizens attempting to enter. That's why we or anyone else has militaries, to secure the borders. Most countries have 'border guard' units of considerable size, it would not be unreasonable for us to do the same.

I know that is why Great Britain had a standing Army -- to secure their borders. They had to have an Army in case the Panzers crossed the English Channel.

Any military force on the planet except for those of the United States Military. This is what the Posse Comitatus act is all about.

The Military deals in matters of Defense.

Illegal Aliens Break the LAW. We have all kinds of law enforcement agencies that are supposed to handle this problem.

The Military are by law not allowed to get involved in law enforcement unless some kind of National Emergency is declared.

Are you willing to live under Martial Law?
