We created CENTCOM for this very reason: for the Feds to act locally.
All you'll ever hear is "no way " and "can't do it" because of Posse Commitatus. But it's all been swept aside and the mechanisms in place. Think that HHS can't quarantine? Think US troops won't act if States fail in an NBC attack?
FREEPERS should read what the powers-that-be consider Posse Commitatus....null and void.

We created CENTCOM for this very reason: for the Feds to act locally. (ahem)... Centcom is in the Mid-east... North Com is the continental command. And you are ALSO blatently incorrect about posse commatatus, but, I will let other freepers point that out to you....as advice return now to wherever you emerged to spout your tripe.
