The constitution bars federal troops on the border.
Really now, please show me!
Constitution bars federal troops from having law enforcement power anywhere on u.s soil.
Posse Comitatus bars federal troops from having law enforcement power anywhere on u.s soil that is why federal troops couldn't go into new orleans.
It is up to the governors to deploy their national guard on the border. That is only an order the governor can do. If they want the border shut send the guard to the border. It isn't enough to just guard the border you need an large area north of the border to patrol too. They need to send the national guard to also patrol the highways from the border. Use the state police helicopters to track illegals in the border states. Also use the police to arrest illegals at day labor centers.
I always see the fence in israel posted here on what the u.s should do. The private property owners won't have any of that.
What is amazing to me the same people that argued against having federal troops with law enforcement power in New Orleans are arguing for federal troops with law enforcement on u.s soil to stop illegals and for taking private property. What about private property rights.
Guess we better move those bases then. LOL!!!
